Shot infinity 24g darts review

[Getagrip]

Got these recently from Dartswarehouse.com, they are from the new Shot Infinity range, you can find more models and weights at this link: Infinity Darts!

There is some very nice designs, check out the medieval looking spikey ones! The darts retail for £58 with free delivery and they are a 90% tungsten dart. They come in the Shot! slim line packaging and are fitted with what looks to be Tweenie size Laro Shafts and 100 micron transparent Shot standard shape flights.

As you can see from the above pics especially the 2 close ups directly above the barrels have quite a unique look and are a mixture of grip styles with a tapered barrel. The grip at the front is made of these lateral cut grooves which are cut quite deep and then the rest of the barrel is made up of thinly cut rings and a mini shark style grip with a smooth section at the rear.

Weight of full set up as supplied:

Balance:

As you can probably guess by the shape of the barrel they are front weighted, but not may be as much as you would think, I think that's down to the way the grip is gradually narrowed towards the middle.

Balance with the supplied setup moves the balance point closer to the middle which is probably where the barrel is grippiest actually:

My normal grip with these darts:

Darts landed in the board tail up, may be slightly more than is usual for me:

Conclusion:

This is a rather nice dart from Shot, the barrel is nicely weighted for my front grip but I think it would suit middle grippers just as well and may be more so if you like a front weighted dart as the grip at the middle is around the balance point of the dart with the supplied set up and its also the grippiest part of the barrel at I would say a high medium grip.

The grip on the front of the barrel where I grip it was kind of strange at first as the lateral cuts are cut quite wide and deep and gave the barrel a square edged feel, but I liked the feel of it after a few throws and it helps with the side to side rolling of the dart, you can grip it steadily or if you like to spin the dart you could also roll your fingers against the edges to impart spin.

They flew nice and steady through the air, I never saw any untoward motions such as fishtailing etc, the dart is nicely weighted in flight with my slight loopy throw, but they did feel kind of zippy too, I would expect they would work well for the likes of Whitlock, who has a hard throw and grips around that middle area.

Overall these are great darts for front and middle grippers if you don't need a long dart. They look great and they are very nicely machined, I like the way each section of the grip on the barrel is very subtly narrowed, the front grooved section is the same width along its length, then the following rings start to narrow on the last 2 rings and then it narrows again on the mini shark grip and so on to give the barrel a nice but almost invisible taper.

Summary Rating:

Looks = 9/10 (They look great in a unique way)
Grip = 6 for the front and 7 for the rest (on a 1 to 10 scale or level)
Weight match = 8 (very close)
Quality = 9/10 (very nice quality)
Value = 7/10 (A little expensive)
Suitability for me = 8/10 (nicely balanced like that strange front grip)

Best Feature: The balance just pips the front grip for me Guests cannot see images in the messages. Please register at the forum by clicking here to see images.

No idea its just some blue baize I bought off Ebay? LOL my nails grow very quick, I let my thumb nail grow very long once just as an experiment, the white part at the tip was over 12mm in about 7.5 weeks.
