Target Colin Lloyd 21g darts review
Guests cannot see images in the messages. Please register at the forum by clicking here to see images.

Target Colin Lloyd are available in either natural or black version.
They are only available in odd weights: 21, 23, 25g.

The model shown is 21g.
It comes with short 30mm points, short black nylon shaft, and 100 micron thick Jaws flights.

Shape and Dimension

The barrel is made of 90% tungsten with a length of 47.8 mm and a diameter of 6.3mm.

The straight barrels are of a very good length and of a normal diameter.

Grip

The main ring grips extend 3/4 of the way up the barrel.

I am crazy about the grip on these!
The level 3 grip on these are fantastic: widely spaced and deep!
Grippy enough that darts won't slip out of your hands but won't spoil you like Purist does.

Near the end of the barrels are more closely spaced ring grips however they are a bit shallow.
If you are looking better rear grip, the Adrian Lewis darts would be more suitable for you.

Flight Characteristics

These darts are way better than the Unicorn Gary Anderson Phase 1.
There! I said it!

Very easy to control because of the shorter length (less moment of inertia) and generous grip.
These Colin Lloyd darts are the only darts I feel comfortable throwing with pears flights (medium nylon).

The only thing that really annoys me is the fact that Target packs them with 30mm points.
For real? Please pack your darts with 35mm points like Unicorn!

Would I recommend?

If you are looking for a set of darts for your friends who are starting, this is it.
For beginners: The Colin Lloyd is a very good set of even balanced darts that are not generic and available at a good price point.

If you are looking for back to basic darts, this is it.
For match darts: As a workhorse, I definitely recommend this. Easy to throw!

For collectors: Not for collection; You are better off chasing a nearly identical set of Adrian Lewis.

superb review, well done +1 from me too.

i liked these when i had them, but i found myself gripping on the smooth part at the back too often. i think its because they were about 3mm shorter than the unicorn Lewis i was used to.
