The key to improving your accuracy, and your score, is to find a tungsten dart that matches your personal preference.  When you find a tungsten dart that you enjoy throwing, consistency will follow.

Do you like a heavier dart, or a lighter dart?  You will find many darts on the market in a variety of weights that top out at 50 grams and can be found as light as 12 grams.  The most popular weights used by avid dart players is typically in the 16 gram to 26 gram range.  The selection of your dart weight is one of the more important choices you have to make.  The only good way to determine this, is to throw darts of different weights and see what feels best to you.

The material that the darts are made from will play another important role in your dart selection process.  Darts had traditionally been manufactured from brass.  Many years later, darts with barrels manufactured from tungsten and other allows entered the scene.  These quickly gained popularity due to the perceived added advantages they provide.  Tungsten darts have barrels that are thinner in diameter than darts manufactured with brass barrels.  The advantages of using a thinner dart come from the fact that you can place more, thinner darts into a smaller area than you can place larger diameter darts.  The tungsten dart barrels are more dense, and the tungsten material is heavier.  So you can maintain a comfortable weight, while still getting the small diameter.  It has been a long time since I have played against any opponent, that wasn't throwing tungsten darts.  The popularity of tungsten darts is driven by its benefits.

Lastly, you should consider the feel of the grip that you prefer.  There are different types of knurling that can be used on your tungsten darts barrels.  You will often see the traditional smooth finish, with rings present on that barrel.  These are a popular design, but seem to be falling from grace with dart players favoring a rougher or more coarse surface.  The coarseness of the surface area can help to provide a better, more confident grip.  The chances of slippage are drastically reduced.  Fine knurling and coarse knurling are both popular, with varying degrees of design and patterns.
