Local Darts.
Played in the second round of a local competition worth 250euro to the winner tonight, had got past the first round robin series dropping 3 legs out of 15. My opponent was a former Kerry county player, DJ. First to 5 legs to win. Lost the bull so DJ had the throw. No great scores hit, but I missed double 12 for a 98 finish for the first leg. Second leg DJ finished with me on Tops. 2-0 down. Third leg the scoring picked up, but again I missed a double (tops) only to see my opponent take a 3-0 lead. Took the next 4 legs to go 4-3 up, hitting a few 140's and tons, and finishing with at least the second dart at a double. (Thanks to Bobs 27)
In the 8th leg missed 3 darts at double 10 to let DJ in to win the leg.
Won the bull to throw first i the deciding leg. Two bad scores (45 & 55) let me down. By the time I picked it up it was too late and DJ finished x18 with me on 86.
Disappointed to lose, but happy enough with my darts even though I know I can throw better.

One year I got a bike for my birthday. So I went peddling off down the road and knocked an old lady down.
'Can't you ring your bell?' She said. 'I can ring my bell,' I said 'But I can't ride my bike'

Good darts, though was it a 160 checkout? or a 3rd dart for the treble that ricocheted off the ceiling light into the double 20?hang the dj wrote:I hit a 160 in my room yesterday

Only kidding mate. I've seen Snakey play and if hes in the team any bugger that can hold a dart the right way will get picked.

Re: Local Darts.
Remember my first well, was in the Adam and Eve pub Hayes and also in practice. I've only hit a few in real games, only one in a league game.
