Okay, so I’ve been getting into darts lately, and I decided I wanted to try out some with tungsten steel tips. Here’s how it all went down.
Getting Started
First, I ordered a set online. I didn’t go for anything fancy, just a basic set to see if I liked the feel of them. They arrived pretty quick, which was cool.
First Impressions
When I opened the package, I was immediately struck by how sleek they looked. The barrels were much slimmer than the brass darts I was used to. They definitely felt more professional.

The Throwing Experience
- Weight: They were noticeably heavier, which I actually liked. It felt like I had more control over the throw.
- Grip: The barrels had these little grooves, which made them super easy to hold. No slipping!
- Flight: This is where I really noticed a difference. They flew straighter and with more force. My accuracy improved almost instantly.
Practice Makes Perfect
I’ve been practicing with them for a few weeks now. My groupings are getting tighter, and I’m hitting the doubles and triples more consistently. I’m even starting to get the hang of those tricky finishes.
Final Thoughts
Switching to tungsten steel tip darts was a great move. I find the game enjoyable and satisfying now. I am much more accurate in comparison to my past throws.
