Okay, so, “white horse darts.” Sounds fancy, right? Well, let me tell you, my experience was anything but. It all started with me wanting to get better at darts, you know, for those pub nights with friends. I figured, why not try these “white horse” darts everyone keeps talking about?
Getting Started
First, I went online and ordered a set. I didn’t even bother check the detail page,i chose the middle-priced ones. Figured they’d be decent * mistake.
My First Impressions
When the package arrived, I ripped it open like a kid on Christmas. The darts looked… okay. Nothing special, just your standard white barrels. I screwed on the flights and started throwing.
The Practice Session
And that’s when the fun really began, or rather, didn’t.
- Throw 1: Missed the board completely. Hit the wall. Oops.
- Throw 2: Bounced right off the board. These things were slippery!
- Throw 3: Finally stuck, but way off target. Like, not even close.
I kept at it for, I don’t know, maybe an hour? My arm started to ache, my wall was taking a beating, and my confidence was shattered. I was all over the place. One dart would be high, the next low, then one would veer off to the side like it had a mind of its own.
The Problems and the Conclusion
Here’s what I realized:
- Grip: The barrels were way too smooth. My fingers just couldn’t get a good hold.
- Weight: They felt… off. I couldn’t tell if they were too light or too heavy, they just didn’t feel right.
- Balance: Seemed like the weight distribution was all wrong.
So, my “white horse darts” adventure? Not a success. I ended up putting them back in the box, defeated. Maybe I’ll stick to cheaper darts, or maybe I just need more practice. Either way, those “white horse” darts and I? We’re not friends.
