@hawksrl Yes, he can't release the dart properly anymore. I had the same problem a year ago, and it's very annoying because you have to repractice the basics of your throw and it takes a lot of time to get over it.
@krew666666 I think its down to tradition, I live in a medium sized town and there are loads of pubs everywere and a dart board in most of them. Im not saying everyone plays here, far from it but ive been playing for around 4 years now and more young players are getting involved. They start to play with their dads and realise they have a natural tallent, ive seen a 12 year old hit 100's consistantly. We have 6 leagues of teams in only 7 mile radius. Hope this helps.
how is it that there are so many good players from the U.K.?....Yet here in America ,you cant find steel tip darts for your life....Im sure Vegas has tourneys but I dont see or hear about any descent players that can hang with England
@copperpotbaby No worries mate, the comments aren't exactly stacked in a good way. Evans's legacy will live on in the game mate, i'm still trying to hit the 'Alan Evans shot' in a match (150 finish on 3 bulls). It's still debated that Evans was the first ever professional darts player, Sid Waddell says he was but he was a great friend of Alans, others disagree but it doesn't really matter tbh, his influence is still felt today.
@UJSupanova Okay I apologise as I assumed your comments were meant for the one above yours! Unfortunately, Alan's best days were in the early 70's when he was no1; he was unable to prove how good he was by winning the later formed world champs; cancer then slowed him down in the mid 80's. It's really amazing to see him here when he had so little time to live but still play reasonably well. I remember this game, but didn't see it though; this was the night when Burnett also played against Taylor.
