Widdy is an American dart manufacturer. American darts are completely different than the kind used in English dartboard games. With the weight in the nose, and three flight wings attached, Widdy darts are distinguishable by their blue and stamped words, "Official Tournament," and "Widdy Dart Mfg. Philadelphia, PA No. 1."

Gameplay
While playing darts, players waiting their turn are to remain behind the shooting line. Players getting ready to shoot must "toe" the line from which they're shooting. Each player is expected to throw three darts for each turn and complete all three before the competitor shoots. If teams are competing, then each player on a team completes his turn before the next team shoots.

Dartboard
The Widdy dartboard is not the traditional "bullseye" dartboard you might be used to. Rather it is broken into pie-shaped pieces that extend, pointing toward the center, outward. Each piece goes from the red center cork in the middle outwards through the red and white ring, and stops at the blue ring.

Scoring
Scoring is done in three separate sections. The largest area is the first scoring section and covers all the uncolored area from the red cork in the center to the outer red ring. Referred to as "the single," this area is worth one point. The outer red ring is the second scoring area, referred to as "the red," and is worth two points. The thin uncolored outer ring that runs between the blue and red ring is known as "the trips" and is the third scoring area. Three points are assessed for darts that land in the trips. Landing a dart on the outer blue ring draws no points.

Concentration plays an integral role in consistently throwing a dart accurately. Much like other sports such as golf and bowling, the secret is being able to repeat the same motion time and time again. But the key to darts is you have to make minor adjustments based on where you are aiming. Confidence plays into this concentration element as well. Your body will respond to your brain knowing you will be able to consistently hit a specific target. Of course, this is all easier said than done and even the best professionals have a difficult time mastering this aspect of the game.

The dart should be held at a level position with the elbow up at a straight angle. Keep the dart pointed toward the board. Where it is pointing is your focus and intended target. Your grip should be solid but relaxed without putting any tension on your fingers. It's better to grasp the dart loosely then too tight. Only hold the dart with two fingers and your thumb. When you throw it, release it in the direction of where you want it to land and the dart will do all the work. Putting spin on the dart is also unnecessary and will only serve to hurt the consistency of your shots.

Stance is incredibly important when throwing darts. A good one makes you steady and allows you to hit specific areas consistently. Try to keep your legs straight but relaxed, with feet spread apart so your upper body is supported and less likely to move. Your upper arm should also be held steady as you throw, so only your forearm, wrist and hand are releasing the dart. Do not swing, jump or bend your knees when you throw the dart, as people are liable to do. You are not shooting a basketball--darts are incredibly light objects that don't need much power behind them to hit the dart board.
