What size are dartboards?
A standard dartboard is 18 inches in diameter, however, there may be slight variations from various brands. Electric dartboards may be a little bigger because of their LCD, but the board is usually officially sized.
What dartboards do professionals use?
Professional dart players tend to stick to classic tournament-style boards with cabinets and official size boards. These tournament-quality dartboards are made with natural sisal fibres which help the holes self-heal when the darts are removed from the board. The material also helps reduce bounce-outs and provides a long lifespan.
How far is the dart line from the dartboard?
To set up a dart board, make sure you have the throwing line at 2.37m away from the board. The board should also be 5.8-feet from the ground. This applies to both steel-tipped and plastic-tipped darts.
What are some games I can play using a dartboard?
There is a wide range of games you can play using a dartboard, either by yourself or with friends. These games are fun but can also help you improve your dart skills.
· Baseball Darts – Focus on a specific number between 1 – 9 and provide extra points for hitting a double or triple
· 501 Darts – Start at a score of 501 points and remove the number of points thrown by each dart
· Around the Clock - Start by throwing at number one and move onto two after a successful hit, then three onwards until you reach 20 and then the bullseye
