What is the dart game 501?

The object of the game is simple: score exactly 501 points with the last scoring dart in a double. It is scored by starting at 501 and counting down. If at any point during a turn you pass zero, you get to exactly zero but not on a double, or you have 1 point remaining, it's called a bust (I think the English call it a burst, unless that's just a difference in pronunciation); your score remains what it was before your turn began, and your opponent takes his/her turn.


How do you work out a 3 dart average?

the quick way is to add up the number od darts to finish the game (incuding 0 scores/missed doubles) then do this some: where: n is the number of darts thrown x is the 3 dart average. X = (501/n) * 3 eg (501/9)*3 = 167


In darts what is a double out?

Double out is how a game of 501 darts is always finished. The double ring is the outer ring of a dart board, say you have 32 left, you need double 16 to win. The bullseye is also a double. 301 and other variations of the game are finished on doubles also, but 501 is the most common form of the game.


What are different dart games for darts?

Why do darts start with 501?

There are many different games in darts. One of the most common is called "301," which you have to throw at numbers to subtract from the score of 301 exactly. In different variations of the game, you can add an extra 100 points to the starting score, making the game last longer, such as 401 or your game, 501. They start at 501 just so that the players have to use a different part of the board at some stage instead of just being able to throw at 20 all the time
