BDO Darts

Post by happyclaret17 » Wed Jan 10, 2018 7:04 pm

Bad Darts Organisation

Was impressed with this Wayne Warren against Wesley Harms....scored heavily with good grouping round the treble.
Mandinger pretty cool cookie though....has the makings of a good game....result will depend on who turns up...
just like the games this afternoon.

Every ladies match I've ever watched, every leg has finished on double one, in fact a couple of those games are still on going.

one of funniest things I ever saw....the bloke is announcing the ladies on stage and instead of LETS PLAY DARTS he inadvertantly says LETS PLAY TARTS....maybe he wasn't too far wrong though looking at some of these.

Don’t usually watch the BDO but there has been some cracking games this year. The standard seems to have improved a lot. Great final.

I have been watching but the massive "thud" every time a dart hits the board was giving me a headache!

The standard in the final was so bad it became a classic!

Missed doubles, crap averages.

I know darts, like pool is quite a popular training ground game between footballers. Many clubs have boatds up at the training ground.

I know Blake was a fan of darts, I think Scotty Arf and Vokes don't mind a throw. I'd love to have a few legs with them, I started getting my mojo back before Christmas having not played for a while

When you watch the PDC, the BDO is a bit of a let down.

Yes, the standard is on a whole new level.

The only difference between the very good local lads in the area, and the BDO players, is time, practice, sponsorship and a little bit of luck.

You could walk in a pub on a Thursday night and watch a leg of darts that wouldn't look out of place in the BDO.

Made me laugh after the PDC final when Barry Hearn was encouraging people to try their luck at Q-school in Wigan to earn a 2 year tour card. Checked and it’s £450 to enter.

Watching the womens darts certainly helps me remember how to count backwards from 501 in increments of 26....
