  • Just for the fact it's an American talking about darts, im guessing most of the dislikes are from British and Dutch people. If you wanna know about darts talk to them.

    It's not a game you just learn a set way of holding/throwing. It's about practice, consistency and being relaxed in your throw. Then there's a chance it just won't suit you full stop.

    I don't play regulary but when i get a practice going im not bad, my old man was really good and even today he can shake off the rust and do well

  • 0:15 How the hell could you stab yourself with the dart, just from holding it wrong? (Not including people how are dumb enough to hold the sharp end!!)

  • How is that the best way to throw a dart you fucking retard, you throw it how you like, it doesnt matter. Please just fuck off.

  • @OriginalGeorgeDoor lol I agree, this guy is an idiot!

  • i swear that i've never seen an expertvillage vid with good information. i think it's a big joke--either that or every person who works with and for this channel is mentally challenged. seriously.

  • what a retard...

  • ok..... ok... OKIIIII

  • Actually, it's 7 feet 9.25 inches from the face of the board, not from the wall. But a brick wall with no back board? Either he never misses, or goes thru ALOT of darts!

  • Really dont hold it next to your ear, no aim at all? the ****, i play with a dude who always hold it next to his ear. and yea, he CAN aim. trowed a few 180's at the training agains me.... so... its just the way you like to trow. if you trow good.. dont chance anything becouse this dude say so.

  • Wow, are expert village videos a joke? No beginner should listen to this guy.

    He is wrong on so many levels.

    1. No backboard

    2. He's either 7 feet tall or his board is too low. 5' 8" from ground to the bullseye.

    3. 10 to 12 feet? 7' 9" 1/4 from the wall.

    4. Try many ways to hold it, some ways you can aim better the others.

  • im a darter myself and everyone has his own way to hold a dart a real darter know that

  • Fucker... There's no motherfucking correct way to hold a dart. It's all about >>FEELING<<

  • 237 cm.

    

  • he obviously never played darts before;P

  • lol this is like darts for dummies ie Americans. dear oh dear!

  • u r full of crap get a life

  • Shouldn't you be playing tennis Rafa?

  • look man you're not good as what you think?

  • idiot

  • this guy knows nothing. it doesn't matter how you hold the dart as long as its comfortable with you most people go for the two fingers on one side of the barrel and the thumb on the other side but just look at how all the processionals hold it - they all hold it differently so there is no correct way of holding it. also his board is to low it should be 5ft 8in to the bull and you should stand 7ft 9.25in away.

    someone please through a dart at this guy and like if you agree with me.

  • this guy knows nothing. it doesn't matter how you hold the dart as long as its comfortable with you most people go for the two fingers on one side of the barrel and the thumb on the other side but just look at how all the proffesionals hold it - they all hold it differently so there is no correct way of holding it. also his board is to low it should be 5ft 8in to the bull and you should stand 7ft 9.25in away.

    someone please through a dart at this guy and like if you agree with me.

  • Although this guy is really bad, I did find some other videos that are as bad, if not worse than this one. Wow...

  • 10 to 12 feet its 7ft 9 and a quarter ... my god i thought that rich buccoli was thick

    the "stud" is actually called the barrell

    and holding it like ou are is not the best way to hold a dart you prat you hold it with your thumb and btween 2-4 fingers on the barrel ... eg: like holding a pencil

  • 10-12 feet??? steel tip is 7'91/4"

  • 25 PEOPLE ARE YANKS

  • when you was child your friends for sure threw you a lot of darts in your head i suppose...

  • this guy is a joke lmao i can tell just by watching this video that he cant play worth shit let alone teach anyone. hes just a copy cat not knowing what hes doing just watching other videos and then trying to make his own.

  • first thing you need is some kind of backing behind the board...unless you want to wreck your darts against a brick wall....dumbass

  • that poster behind him is self explanitory

  • 10feet ???? dont you mean 7ft9,1/4 ? ... and you just through a dart the way you feel comfortable , there is no right way or wrong way.

  • its not a stem or stud  wat u call stud is a barrel

  • Don't feed the troll people.

  • No wonder you hold your dart like a nob if your throwing from nearly 3 to 5ft to far away you clown, do a video on how to look like a dick.........no competition!!

    5 ft 8 inches from floor to the bull. 7 feet 9and a quarter inches from a line level with the face of the board to the back of the oche...

    and by the way - you aint that good at darts....

  • This is about the 10th darts tip video and it's as stupid as the rest.

    Do Americans actually know how to play darts?

    10 to 12 feet :-O

    His dart board is two bloody low too!

  • @rngDeadEye I am an avid dart fan from the US and there certainly are some Americans who have a clue about darts. However, I would be the first to admit that the sport isn't that popular over here and most people don't even know that there are regulations for how to set up a board. I've been to bars where the board was as low as this guys (or lower) and there wasn't even a throwing line marked on the ground let alone a true Oche.

  • lol at 10 to 12 i think you will find around 7 2" xD

  • its the beer pong guy ? hahahhahah

  • 10 to 12 feet??!!!!!!!! are you taking part in the javelin event?!

  • No respect for expert village anymore! You hold a dart how you fell comfortable PRICK!

  • LOST ALL RESPECT FOR EXPERT VILLIAGE NOW!!

  • its not like 7.9feet from wall and 9.7feet from the bull to the oche?

  • you hold darts how you want to hold darts

  • 10 to 12 feet pahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha dick!

  • Everyone knows the dart is thrown at 45 feet for little league and 60 feet for the pro's LOL.

    The most expensive darts are wire guided and optically tracked and cost millions.

    Darts are typically carried in special containers which you shove in your eye sockets.

    See? I can make up shit too and call myself an expert.

  • did he just say 10 to 12 feet it varies.????

    Lol... Expert my arse.....

  • This is a piss take right???

  • he must be very tall or else the dart board is way too low.........

  • this is terrible. newbies please disregard this video. not at all accurate

  • 10-12 ft???????????? 7.91/4ft dumb ass

  • shut up you retard!!!

    it's full of BS!!DX

  • so ur telling me andy smith a top 20 proffesional holds his dart wrong ur wank

  • STFU!

  • this guy is a tit. 

  • 10 to 12 Feet? This is Expert Village not any pub dart player with a dart board in his basement on a concrete wall village..

    Doesn't E.V. look into these videos to make sure posers like this don't teach the masses?

  • 7.9 feet you dick 

  • uhh, that is called a shaft and a barrel, not stem and the stud.

  • Sigh! This idiot's videos are still here?

  • 10 feet even taylor would struggle lmao

  • Hahahahaha... hey everybody look at the poster behind him... it's

    "DUMB AND DUMBER" just like this guy......

  • Well obviously... this guy doesn't really play real and pro darts.... real darters like

    myself would attest to that...... 10 feet????? It is 7ft and 9&1/4inches you idiot

    and the height from the ground to the bulls eye is 5ft and 8inches....

  • ok? you say ok alot ok? and wath is the normal weigth of a dart ok? 16g ore 18g ok?

  • wtf!!!!!! my friend actually sent this to me saying he could help me get back to my regular avg again of 65-70 after listening to this i dnt think ill ever go over 30 again reasons y 1....10 feet wtf ???? holding the stem wtf??????? and the way he held it what a crock of crap i use bogey shaped darts not flat barrell so already his stuff about holding right is complete horse

  • 10ft? on shaft?

  • pathetic video. time wasting...

  • You should never have any finger on the Shaft because you can easily knock of your flight and the dart won't be thrown accurately, you should always have all your fingers on the barrel, and if you want to learn how to throw a dart by watch a video you should watch pro's light Phil Taylor, Raymond Van Varneveld, and James Wade. But the best way to learn is to Throw.

  • oh my god. this guy is an idiot. 10 feet? its actually 7'9.25". a stem? I think its called a shaft. stud? not sure, but I think maybe he's talking about the barrel. three's company? cut throat?  never heard of either of those two games. What is 'expert village' and how is this total novice telling people how to play darts?

  • one time i played darts it hit the side of the board and it flung into the neighboring wall

  • lol that is complete bullshit :D

  • Please remove this video! This guy is an idiot! He has no idea what darts is about!!!

    Again please take this video off!!!!!!!

  • 10 FEET!! what's he on? I want some.

  • btw i played darts and have won many tournaments , even throwed a 180 with the darts bakcwards so nothing dangerous about that haha

  • if you cant hold a dart, dont play darts

  • bricks in the back ground. o well.

  • about 10 feet??? 7ft 9 and 1/4 you moron

  • His dartboard is hung on a concrete wall with the way he throws ia dart he would be better off giving us advise on how to sharpen the dart.

  • omg, so lame!

    its nice how you have hanged your dartboard on a freaking concrete wall withot any rubber ring or plywood behind ot -.-''

    freaking noob!

  • thats just so terrible, he never even played b4, gimp!!!!

  • In the video, he need to hold the hand still while showing how to hold the dart with findger. I can't stop to see how he hold it.

  • Whatever this guy's saying is totally contrary to the other expertvillage guy, who's right and who's wrong? Who should we listen to?

    They're confusing me.

  • See the poster on the wall? After watching this stupid video I realized he's dumb but I'm dumber!

  • there no certain throwing technique

  • it's 7ft 10 inches. He mentions 10/12 feet because this is the distance chicks run to as he tries to chat them up.

  • 7 foot 9 and one quarter

    This guy is a loon. he knows nothing about darts.

  • WTF!!!! This guy is a idiot!!!

  • how come i've never seen this guy in a darts match on tv?...oh i forgot ..it's because he's shite...lol

  • haha wot a fool..10 to 12 foot...lol...wtf!!!

    it's 7 foot 9 and a quarter inches to be precise..pity the fool who takes advice off this jerk...lol

  • 2.37 meter... steeldart. 2.44 meter E-dart....

    please delete the video. that makes a lot of damage to beginners.

  • Ya this dude has dart tips cummin out his ass. If you go to a bar (in the great country of America) the throw line is 7' 9 and a 1/4 not 10 or 12 feet. And why would anybody try to throw a dart Backwards??????? UUUUhhhh

  • 10-12 foot? Are you fuckin kidding I thought it was at least 8 foot

  • OMG, you are such full of shit dude. There is no certent way to hold your darts. Everyone has their own style, and this 'funny guy' is saying that 'most people holding it wrong' OMFG. I have my own style of throwing, and play competitions. Everybody has their own style, DIPSHIT!

  • How would I locate this "expertvillage?" I'm thinking about either burning it down or just making a mockery of their apparent "expertise."

  • I am no seasoned professional but this video is full of CR4P!!!!!!

    I have never seen any Pro hold a dart that way.

    Get a grip pa!!! Pardon the pun.

  • that grip is the totally wrong way to hold a dart u spice boy... u need help n tips not u telling people how to hold darts PEOPLE DONT LISTEN HES AN IDIOT

  • My dog has a better understanding of darts than this dumb pikey

  • What a complete fool. Please take this video down and do everyone a favor. The regulation distance is 7 ft. 9" 1/4 inch from the bulls eye, and 5 ft. 8 inch to the bulls eye from the ground. Not 10 ft to 12 ft! Your "stem" and "stud" LOL would be called the "shaft and the "barrel". Why would you do a video based on dart advice when you couldn't be more wrong yourself.

  • you dont even have to hold it like that who ever is talking he is talking out of hs arse

  • expert???

  • WHAT a DAMBASS !!

  • As a world class professional I prefer to stand far behind the oche and hurl my dart javelin fashion. This is the true and proper way to throw darts but only if accompanied by the "darters cry",............"BOLLOCKS!"

  • okay.

  • How you can actually consider yourself to be an expert Kevin defies belief......you have NO IDEA what you're talking about! Did you think no-one would notice?

  • You would think this guy is talking to a 2 year old.

  • Ten feet? What drugs is this dullard on?

    7' 9 1/4" steel tip, 8' soft tip.

  • what the hell is the "stem and stud"?

    Why does this guy think he knows what the hell hes talking about?

  • OH MY GOD LOL! 10 to 12 food oche! O god.  I like what he's doing but he makes it obvious that he doesn't know darts.

  • 7'91/4 anyone? anyone?

  • OMG! the oche is at ten feet...LMAO...is he playing archery or something? he dont even know what is the name of the shaft/pin ....

  • wot a joker !!!!! your board is about a foot too low...the oche is 7'9 not ten feet..good luck holding it by the stem you nob .you should rename this video how not to play darts..why dont u hold the dart backwards and try aiming at your head ...TOSSER!!!

  • HAHAHA...10-12'??? Thumb on the stem? CC is right, this guy is pathetic....

  • What total garbage!!!!!!!! There is not one thing that he said that was correct or would be helpful to anyone. First, the proper distance for steel tip darts is 7' 9-1/4", and 8' for soft tip....(10-12 feet?? Is this guy on crack??) Next, don't ever hold a dart like that. There's no way you can possibly throw it accurately that way. The video gets worse from there on. I've been throwing darts for 20 years. Don't listen to a thing this crackhead has to say. PLEASE.

  • I turned off minute I heard "10 feet"

  • people should just fucking find their own style bloody hell

  • Is this guy kidding!

    Love the dart board hung from a bare cinder block wall... My next video "how to sharpen a dart".

  • wat a nobed

  • this guy chats the most shit ive ever herd!!

  • hes the guy who teaches how to ride a unicycle

  • i think he is being sarcastic looolz

  • what a moron!

  • Wow, this is, well just sad...

    I feel sorry for this guy...

  • I'm shocked at the poor information in this video. For people who want to learn how to play, this is terrible!

  • BDO is 7ft9 1/4 and the toe line is 5ft8 roughly, he is holding the dart wrong as well. Been playing County Darts for a while and I even know more than this twat...I always throw from the ear.....and always hit what I am wanting.......just a word.....leave it to the pros pal....clearly u aint.

  • jackass watch adiff video this guy is totally wrong on about everything

  • i've never seen a player who knew less about darts, the oche... or anything to do with the game. on the plus side i now feel like a far better player. and human being for that matter!

  • Stem=Shaft. Stud=Barrel. Fin=Flight.

    Please, man, for the sake of people who are actually wanting to learn to play darts and are looking to youtube for help, just delete these videos. You are just going to confuse these poor kids who are really wanting to learn... They're going to watch your videos and go to a bar to play and end up very embarrassed because of you.

    If you want to learn, watch the monkeyseevideos series on darts. They're not pros but they're good enough to teach you correctly.

  • Actually it's 7ft., 9 3/4in and I've never seen it vary from place to place... Not 8ft and certainly not 10-12ft... And since he didn't specify, the bullseye is supposed to be 5ft 8in from the ground.

    Also, there is no "wrong" way to hold a dart, but if there were, it would have to be the way he says is right.

  • Actually, ter eare variations, but 10-12 feet is ludicrous. I think they are mainly around 7-8 feet and are probably mostly outdated. You can still however buy the mats with the various oche distances marked on them.

  • is it the leather jacket that qualifies him?

  • I see you posted this massive juk-off 8 months ago. Have you learned to play yet? Do you know the difference between a "Fin" and a Flight? Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

  • To have such a psuedo-authoritive attitude and voice, you would think you would actually know what the hell your talking about before you go thinking it's time to teach *anyone*, much less anyone *here* Mr. Deep-Voice Authority on Probably Everything (You Think)...OK? OK? OK....

  • if you listen to what the guy says, he's not saying that the official distance is 10ft. he's saying that at a bar, the line may be between 10-12ft. the bar may or may not be using the "correct" distance. if you are so new to the game that you are watching this video, you don't need to be concerned with the exact distance to the board.

  • This guy is a knob! and I strongly disagree. Learn properly right from the start or go be an "outdoors man" like Kevin here. but don't tell us how to play darts when you do not know.

  • whois this guy? hahaha ten feet? do you not have google? thats i all i did when i set my board up

  • what a wanker.

  • Every Village has an idiot

  • How does this knob keep a straight face?! This is pure comedy

  • who the fuck throws a dart backwards,this guy knows fuck all about darts proberly better off teaching gay sex

  • Expert village?

  • is the oche not 5, 9" from the bull, i dont think this lad has a clue, is this lad for real, come on honestly

  • he likes to think he knows alot about darts but nhe know shitall

  • its 237cm you dozy twonk. you no nothing

  • Has this guy watched a professional like Phil Taylor throw a dart. WTF!

  • 10 - 12 ft more like 7ft 9 and a quater u cock

  • whf this idiot geek trying to say for god sakes?this must be a joke.

  • He said "ok" 18 times

  • Who the FUCK throws darts backwards in a game? And how on earth are you gonna hit yourself with a dart?? Probably how this moron started out throwing his darts.

  • wth are you saying wanker you are fucking gay have you ever trow at a board?

  • what the fuck is he on about, i've been playing darts for over two years and i can say with a honesty that he is full of shit. he got everything wrong there, the grip (no wrong way to hold a dart i hold it as far forward as possible and i havn't lost in my last 13 league game) the measurement (7ft 9 1/4ins) and the aim (lots of players will bring a dart to eye level but will it in a little to get the airight) if anybody i using these videos to learn how to throw darts DON'T!!!!!

  • Is this guy for real?!?

  • 1.) There is no wrong way of throwing a Dart. Everybody is different. You'd need to be mentally retarded to throw one backwards, like come on?!

    2.) 10 to 12 feet? I'm sorry pal but professionally, the actual distance from the board is 7ft 9in & 1/4. It is also 5ft 8 from the floor to the bullseye. Your board is to low.

  • Throwing a dart backwards wil make it correct itself in air.

    i have used darts to learn better tecnics to throw knifs

  • its 8ft and who the fuck throws a dart backwards??

  • that is the dumbest fucking way to hold a dart

  • officialy 2.37metres
