    This is a brilliant demonstration of how to teach - not only a natural gift for darts, but a natural gift on how to explain something clearly and patiently.

    Bobby George is such a class bloke, not only does he know the game exceptionally well, he explains it such that anyone can make sense of it.

    Bobby dug holes and laid floors. Then he took up darts......6 months later he’d won The News of the World Darts Championship in 1979, receiving the cup from Diana Dors.

Real people.

    There are a lot of great dart players that are not great teachers of the game. Taking dart lessons from Mr. George would be very helpful and educational. Nobody knows more about the game and I really like his style of teaching. Very engaging. definitely gonna watch the rest of the vids in this series.

    The best bit of advice in this, if you're going to start playing pub darts, is the last bit about timing and pacing yourself. It's not until you play a really slow player, that you find out just how frustrating it is.

      He made big bucks from sponsors and exhibitions.he made more money than the guys winning tournaments. Thats basically why the wdc was formed because the players were losing thr livelihoods because the bdo wasnt pushing tv tournaments/ prize money etc. And pdc has only been big bucks recently

    @montygemma Před 5 lety

    I enjoyed this but one thing I disagree with is when you have a practice board at home is getting the lighting, distance, positioning spot on. Reason is when you play in darts leagues you sometimes have to be versatile. Sometimes the lighting's bad (they aren't gonna change it for you), sometimes the measurements aren't spot on ( they won't get the screwdriver out just for you) sometimes they have a mat that keeps moving, and some places have a board in a corner so you can only throw from one side. Better to have a rough old board and bad lighting for practice so if you go to a venue that's well set up it's a bonus.

    • @WillieDines1
      @WillieDines1 Před 5 lety

      ​@@straighteight9154 and Bobby have hit 3 bulls for the money.
      5' 8'' from the floot to the center of the bullseye.
      7' 9.25'' is the throwing distance from the face of the dartboard.
      115.5'' is the measuring distance from the center of the bullseye to the correct throwing distance 'line'.
      Note:- The 3rd measurement is the best way to make sure that you have the correct throwing distance, since alot of people make the mistake of measuring 7' 9.25'' throw line from the wall that the dartboard is mounted on, instead of measuring from the face of the dartboard for the right distance.

    He is then able to propel the dart and his hand in an upwards direction. Only then can he concentrate on using the same force to throw with each time and to ensure that he follows through with his hand on each throw! Following through keeps the dart following a straight line! To be able to do what I have described above, every player has to find a position to throw his dart from and this may be unique, so copying other players may be misleading! Players do these things to make money- not to help
