Heavier Tungsten Alloy Dart or Lighter Tungsten Alloy Dart

Advantages of a Heavier Tungsten Alloy Dart
Now, the maximum permitted dart by the laws of the game is 50g (grams). That doesn't sound a lot, but when you consider most people throw darts at a weight of around 22/23 grams, it sounds like a real heavy dart! Don't even consider throwing darts this heavy; when I say heavy, I mean somewhere around the 28g mark. You'll struggle to get some darts that are so heavy anyway in the modern game, they're kept in the past with the wooden darts of this world, darts players use tungsten darts in this day and age.

All of the weight is measured from the barrel, the middle part of the dart which is made of the aforementioned tungsten alloy. That's how the throw is affected in the most severe manner with a heavier dart. You might be stronger in your arm when you throw that dart, and that may mean a heavier dart is the one for you. You do tend to get more control with a slightly heavier dart, from experience. As well as this, if you have a heavier dart, then you can afford to throw it with less effort, as the dart will tend to do more of your work. All things to take into consideration!

Advantages of a Lighter Tungsten Alloy Dart
The light dart is the enigma and annoyance of many a dart player. Some people can't fathom a light dart - and by light I mean the 17/18 gram region - because their action isn't favorable towards it. Some people like to throw with a more relaxed style; that could indeed be you, reading this very article. If it is, you'll want to knock your weight up a couple of grams, as the lighter the dart, the more power will have to be put into your throw. There are some that prefer to throw with force and vigor, if so, try out a lighter dart!

Some Honest Advice
Every dart player has different preferences; for instance, you may instantly feel the dart is going higher than where you’re aiming. If that’s the case, you need to switch to a slightly heavier weight of dart, with the opposite applying if you can’t get the dart up to its desired location. There is no direct advice one can take; the only possible solution is to try a variety, and see which works best.
