Snatching your darts is bad -bad-bad

Follow through. I incorporate in warm up throwing at the top of the board this will help you reach out. Try it . And your hitting double 20-1-5 -18 will improve at the same time. Try it.

Snatching darts is one of the biggest problems people have, almost everyone does it at times.

Your right Shawn I find myself doing it and have to correct here and there.

What do you mean by snatching darts? Snatching here in the states means taking something usually from someone.

[Tormentor]

Not a full follow through. When you stop your follow through mid way and snatch your arm back real fast. At least that's my best definition

[*Saber*]

short arming your throw.

[Tormentor]

My definition make sense Larry?

[*Saber*]

yep ya got it Shawn better than what I said really.

[SlingBlade]

New at perfecting my throw I find the full throw the hardest but practicing all the time

keep extending that arm - in the end your a better player for it.

Lately I've been starting my practice sessions by throwing 100 or so darts and ONLY concentrating on the arm extension & follow through, not aiming at anything in particular. Hopefully it'll become second nature. So far it's helping a lot, and my consistency on bulls in particular has vastly improved. With T20 only 3 short inches to the north, you might think I'd be killing those, too. Not yet.

I think if possible its a good idea to video yourself and then again in a weeks time to see if your improving.

There is a long mirror next to the oche on one of my boards and I can see that I don't always follow through right just by catching my reflection in my peripheral vision, but I am going to video myself and check for sure.

+ 1 for the good idea

[Getagrip]

who me? its still the same, where's me +1 ! Swindler! Guests cannot see images in the messages. Please register at the forum by clicking here to see images.
