I'm currently using the winmau blade 4 dc with it's three rotating posts. The small bracket gets put uner a lot of strain and is slowly loosening the screw fixings in the wall. I'm thinking about the large bulls mounting bracket but at £20 is it the best remedy out there for secure fixing with the load being spread over a greater area?

Best mounting bracket

I've been using the Unicorn wall clamp for the last couple of years - had no issues with it and as you don't put any screws in the back of the board I'm sure it helps prolong the life of the bullseye

Thanks I'll definitely keep that one in mind. It looks like there are three wall screw holes in it. That should spread the load better.
Yes there are 3 wall screws in it - makes it nice and solid as well.
Hadn't really considered the rota lock system putting strain on the bracket. Makes sense now I think of it!

Started playing darts: Mid February 2015.
Darts used: Not having played for a long while, I am leaning towards my 23 gram eagles. 180's:18 Since I started Mid February 2015. I stopped playing for a long period due to stupidity. Back to the learning process again, but am enjoying it. 
The Bulls Rotating Bracket uses four screws that go into the board and another four that go into the wall or backboard. IMO, it's a good bracket system and the price is definitely reasonable. I think it’s always a good idea to use a backboard, too. You can mount the backboard directly into wall studs and then mount the board onto the backboard, which should beat up less on your wall.
That what i use The Bulls Rotating Bracket works great!!
I have removed the Rota-loc from my B4DC and mounted it on MDF cut to the size of my surround, just the screw in the centre to mount the board and the surround holds the board really steady but I will look at the Unicorn mount for future boards if it helps save the Bullseye

Current Board Blade 5 with Corona Surround and Unicorn number ring Darts Modified Unicorn Striker with RD medium sparkle stems, hardcore charcoal flights and Target titanium stem rings Playing 40 years on and off and still barely average
Best bracket by a mile is the unicorn "T" bracket as stated in earlier posts.
CURRENT DARTS AND SETUP:
22g Target Rising Sun Darts(Harrows Clic Flights & Medium Stems) Target Daytona Grey/Blue Case Unicorn Eclipse HD2/Unicorn Wall Clamp Unicorn PDC Heavy Duty Surround(orange) Aurora Halo Lighting System(white)
How is the Unicorn 'T' bracket attached to the wall? Does it use the standard bracket?
All pictures I've seen of it only show how it clamps onto the board, but not how you secure it to the wall. Does anyone have pics of theirs that demonstrates that part? Thanks Bruce
If you look at the following pic you can see 3 holes in the bars - you screw it to the wall using these holes
