This is my opinion but I think good advice.
The other night while watching the top league match a lower league was playing and one of the newbies asked me how to become a good player.
I had played him before in Cricket and 01 and just destroyed him. A nice kid and here was my answers to him.
1. Extend your arm to your target and end up with palm of your hand down. ( 90% of players around here snatch their darts)
2. Focus
3. Practice,Practice,practice and learn your outs.
Of course there are more to it than that but you get this part down you have a solid base IMO.

You don't extend your arm in the end I'm gonna get ya. My practice partner is the only good player I have seen who snatches. Hes been playing like that for over 30 yrs like that and at one time was ranked 21st by the ADO (20 yrs ago). His snatch is about half way btw.

I emphasized the extending the arm. You give too much info and they start to think and thinking can lead to real trouble.

I need a new arm one that will hit what I am aiming at. That would be my best advice for someone. Find a good player or even a pro and lop off his arm, lop off your own and switch them. After that everything will be easy peasy.

Not often you see "his" and "snatch" in the same sentence.
