The reason is that you need to develop a basic throwing skill in order to reach a certain initial level of play with darts on the heavy side. You would probably reach such a level a bit faster with lighter darts, but lighter darts don't force you to develop a somehow decent technique which will make later improvement a lot harder. Heavier darts also forgive slight technical inconsistencies (in other words: errors) better than lighter darts -- I like to tell heavier darts more "good-natured" because of this. The lighter the dart the more sensible it reacts to what you are doing -- slight intentional adjustments as well as slight technical errors or deficits.

Once you have got some darting experience and a decent technique you may find the heavier dart not that convincing any longer because of its good-natured behavior. If you then think you could use a dart that reacts more sensible you should consider going lighter.

Soft tip players won't have that much of a choice for their dart's weight. The limit set by the machine operators and leagues usually is below 20 grams. If you are a beginner in soft tip the only advice I can give you concerning the weight of your darts is start at the maximum allowed weight.

Early 20th century, the rapid spread of darts in the UK, becoming a very popular pub sport recreation sports. As early as 1908, Dart had officially been recognized as a skill sport, it's also thanks to a Leeds bar owner.

It is said that, in Leeds, darts was considered an illegal "game of chance." So the bar owner with a dart and dart disk to a court challenge to find a judge, determine in advance darts target zone, the boss took the lead darts, three consecutive dart, dart dart hit the target. Judge's turn to play, naturally defeated, judges admit defeat, the spot that darts is not a game of chance, but a skill sport.

Since then, this technique darts sport in the UK has attracted many enthusiastic participants. More and more bars are hung dart disk, local darts organizations and alliances will naturally been developed. In the UK a number of national organizations, the National Darts Association was founded first, in 1924 it organized a darts tournament. In 1927, a British newspaper began sponsoring international news local darts tournament in London, after the competition has gradually become an important regional and national events - international news Championships. By 1939, the sport has become very popular, and even the development of areas of intense and brutal war.

Allegedly, the officials in order to maintain domestic stability, has decided to ban the playing darts in the bar, because they suspected darts breed bad habits of the working class, developed a bad habit of idleness. However, the public outcry that is very strong, there can be no government ban takes effect.

For a long time, it is widely believed darts produced in archery arrows is often called darts.

18th-century Scottish poet Robert Burns put in his poem "darts" portrayed as Cupid's arrow.

Today, we still often hear of the "arrow" called darts.

From the perspective of the basic form of darts, a few centuries ago it is the form of a sports game in the UK in public places - bars.

Darts Darts original shape similar to the history of the obelisk hand, the first disc is a stump or a dart barrels to replace the roof.

Later, it was discovered rings on the stump formed circles of different sizes, natural split into different sections, can represent different scores zones, so stump became the prototype of today's modern dart disc, the tonneau cover the cork into the typical bull's-eye.

Dart weight is a never ending story.

A lot of people want to know which weight they should throw, which weight is the most common one, what's the average weight and so on.

There is no right answer to these questions. For the "average weight" question there probably is an answer, but it doesn't make much sense.

An example of two world champions:

Dennis Priestley throws 14 gram darts.

Raymond van Barneveld throws 26 gram darts.

If you ask the average question now the answer will be 20 grams, but does this make sense when the weights vary that much?

For a beginner steel dart player I recommend a barrel weight between 22 and 25 grams, which is slightly on the heavy side.

The reason is that you need to develop a basic throwing skill in order to reach a certain initial level of play with darts on the heavy side.

The barrel forms the main part of a dart. When we are speaking of "buying a (new) dart" we mean getting a new dart barrel. Nowadays barrels are available in almost every possible shape, with a wide selection of knurl or rings on the surface for a comfortable and safe grip.

The main barrel shapes are:

- cylinder
- ton
- torpedo

Some barrel shapes. The selection to the left shows barrels with 2 threads (soft tip), to the right are fixed-tip steel dart barrels.

It's not possible to say which one is the "right" one. Based on a very theoretical reasoning the long cylindrical barrel could be the best of them because it is the slimmest and allows the tightest grouping. Good for 140s and 180s. But this reasoning doesn't help you when you are not able to handle such a barrel. Selecting the right shape is a matter of personal preference. Choose what feels comfortable for you. This is much more important than an abstract or "academic" reasoning about theoretical advantages or disadvantages of some shapes.

The more tungsten the slimmer - and the more expensive - the dart is. If the high-percentage tungsten darts are worth the higher price is an open question. Personally I think that 80% tungsten are good enough for almost everyone.

Remember: the only benefit from a high tungsten share is that the dart can be made slimmer than a dart with the same weight and a lower tungsten share. In no way do higher tungsten percentages indicate some sort of overall better quality or better machining.

Inrecent years a growing number of people has become allergic to Nickel. With Nickel-Tungsten darts being the standard equipment nowadays these people will have problems with their darts. There are a few darts available with different tungsten alloys, such as silver tungsten or copper tungsten. However, these darts are very rare. The major dart manufacturers don't supply them. If you are allergic to Nickel you will probably have to look for these alternatives.

Today's standard material is Nickel-Tungsten. Tungsten is a very dense material, so darts with a considerable weight can be made quite slim. The invention of tungsten darts had a big impact on the sport. With the new darts it was possible to achieve much better grouping than before, and the averages in pro games have improved dramatically. It is not an overstatement when this development is referred to as "the tungsten revolution".

Before the tungsten revolution darts were mainly made of brass. Brass darts are still used by some players because they are much cheaper than Tungsten. But brass darts are ancient technology now, so I can't recommend them.

Because of technical difficulties with manufacturing a 100% tungsten dart is not available. All "tungsten" darts youcan buy are in fact made of tungsten alloys, with Nickel-Tungsten being the most common one. When you buy a dart the amount of tungsten in the alloy is given by a percentage number. So a common "80% Tungsten" dart has 80 percent tungsten and 20 percent Nickel, Copper and/or Ferro. Tungsten darts are available from 80% to over 90%.
