They're quite a bit thicker that tungsten darts, but they're a lot cheaper, too.

How do you throw accurate darts?

Do not lean so far forward that you are off balance. Stand with your whole arm between you and the board, with your elbow pointed at the floor or pointed at the molding between the floor and the wall. It might help to stand sideways at the oche in order to force your elbow down. Hold the dart in a way that feels natural, but make sure you have enough contact with the dart to give it direction. Aim, then throw the dart into the target with a steady fluid motion, and follow through with a slight flick of the wrist as you release. DO NOT MOVE YOUR BODY as you throw the dart.

What is a double bust in darts?

A bust, which is called a burst in Europe, is throwing more than you need to complete an '01 game. It's also called a bust when you throw exactly the points that you need, but your last dart was not a double (I'm referring to real darts; you do not need to double-out in soft-tip darts). Leaving yourself one point is also a bust since there is no way to set up for a double-out from one point.

When you bust, your score remains what it was before you began your turn, and the next player is up. If you're counting darts for statistics, the turn in which you busted counts as three darts no matter how many darts you actually threw before you busted.

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
