I find it interesting if you look the grip of all the players really are not that much different as to where the dart sits between the thumb and finger. The dart sits at the knuckle of the finger. I hold mine at my fingertip. hmmm maybe thats why I suck lol

I'm naturally a fingertip holder, but its all about how you have just enough control of the dart so it releases cleanly but not so light that it slips from your fingers, but I have noticed having it on my tips sometimes causes the dart to fly at strange angles.

Could be that I just need to work on the release better but I have started to hold it so my thumb and finger are holding it along the fleshy part/sideways if you can understand me, I think that way is easier for me to release it cleaner and the darts fly smoother through the air.

I still suck too lol, but a bit less sucky than I was.Guests cannot see images in the messages. Please register at the forum by clicking here to see images.
