George Noble is my favorite 180 caller, followed closely by Russ Bray. Kirk is my favorite overall in terms of counting, game shot calls and those great 171/74/77 calls
Those 171/177 calls from Kirk are freaking awesome lol. His 180s not so much. It's how darts scores are supposed to be called! The Puppy is right alongside him with his style and the best 180s.
Russ Bray is simply the legend. Close second is the smooth George Noble. Those two stand leagues ahead of the rest with their iconic calls (even though they're miles apart in style).
It's so hard to pick a favourite, each of them are so good! I love when Phil Taylor kisses Bruce Spendley before he's finished announcing him as world champion!
The old BDO ref Martin Fitzmaurice, big bloke with the balding pate... he was my favourite when watching The Lakeside world championships every New Year's in the 90s. Used to joke with mates that he could rest a pint on his huge beer belly! lol. Such a great caller!
Paul hinks and George noble. My favorites, but the 177, 174, 171, 168, 162 go to bevins for sure. Russ bray though, changed his 180 call a bit over the years but everyone knows his. I just love darts.
Huw Ware reminds me so much of the caller who can be heard on the few surviving recordings of the News Of The Worlds finals at the Ally Pally. I imagine that when he was looking for his own style, he was inspired by that.
I love games where Kirk is the referee. Also, with Terry, I think he has a trademark when a player busts his score by going over by saying "Too many" rather than "No score".
Anyone who likes to listen to the sound of hoover's or hairdryers to help them sleep, should appreciate paul hinks 180 calls. It's got that tone in sound for me.
George Noble is the best caller no question. Look up all of the best games of the last 10 years and George is calling nearly all of them. The man just lifts a crowd. Bruce Spendley's 180 calls were the best of the lot though
My opinion on the calls: Best 180 Paul Hinks Best 170... George Noble Best 140 Freddie Williams Best Game Shot Noble/Bevins My favourite referee is Paul Hinks
Kirk bevans in my opinion gets involved with the match with how he calls, for example if someone has hit a 177 at a crucial and tense time he will exaggerate the call a lot more than usual.
Kirk bevins got my vote but its good to see paul hinks come back he was gone for a bit... saw lots of Huw ware during bdo mostly because I was day dreaming watching fallon sherock
Huw Ware has all it takes to be a professional referee- everything but the voice. The job is like being a radio host. You can be a good host all you want, but if you don't have a pleasant voices, no one will listen to it. Same for Huw unfortunately.
Bruno Vervoort with the help of a vocal teacher there might be improvement possible, but yeah his tone and timbre are awful. Darts is beside a sport also entertainment and you need to hype up the crowd with your calls as well.
I like Huw, he has a bit of, I cannot describe it correctly 100%, but he has an old-fashioned tone in his voice, a bit authoriative. Underrated in my opinion.
It's gotta be Russ Bray. Alot of people are saying Kirk which is fair but he's too inconsistent for me, he'll either do the best call of 140 or the version he does in this vid where he mumbles the 40 part. And often he does the mumble version.
Great video idea! I like the voice from Russ, but sometimes he takes too long and rarely makes mistakes. But i'm satisfied with the core team in the tournaments. Who is your favourite?
My favourite referee is Russ Bray. Hey Giacomo Pietrosanti, could you maybe make a video with all the commentators in it please, and see who people think commentates the best? I think you've made some great videos, and I think that a video like that would work too.
Love Kirk singing 180. Also with Terry Jowett, if a player busts his or her score by scoring too many, instead of saying "no score", he'll say "too many". Love it.
@@giacomopietrosanti-darts1195 Years ago, there was a stage tournament Super League which was the Top 8 players of New Zealand at the time and a match got televised when I heard him say it.
My favorites: 180 - Bruce Spendley / Kirk Bevins / Paul Hinks / Russ Bray / George Noble / Huw Ware 170 - George Noble / Russ Bray / Kirk Bevins 140 - Kirk Bevins / George Noble Game shot - Russ Bray / Kirk Bevins / George Noble Game shot and match - Russ Bray / George Noble / Kirk Bevins Game shot and the championship - George Noble / Russ Bray / Kirk Bevins
Russ is gruff and gravelly and mostly the same volume kirks is also up there because of the nuances in his voice when calling the scores hard to choose between them two

Interviewer: How many cigarettes did you smoke for your voice?
Russ Bray: Yes
He's not smoking and drinking for many years now
151bar151 bro that was a joke
@@Blueskies24TV so what?
@@151bar151 hes kid dont mind. If its joke youre apparently not allowed to comment anything about it,
@@151bar151 he did chain smoke for years beforehand though
I also like Kirk Bevins' 60 calls.
He always makes you feel like you did something terribly wrong there & he disprizes you for it 😁
lol. I've noticed that. Not sure it's a good thing though. If I was up there and he was calling my poor scores like that, I think I'd get irritated
Yet his 140 and 180 calls? I can't stand. Sounds like he's singing choir.
Which, shouldn't bother me lol it's darts, but it does.
Russ Bray is such a legend at shouting the 180
Yeah, it sounds like a 1978 Leyland National bus starting up on a December morning! lol
hes a dhead
Got to be kirk bevens surely! He changes his calls based on the situation and timing its quality
yes, he is the best caller
Only seen him make one mistake ever
His 60 is pretty sarcastic though, I must say. lol. But yes. His voice is top notch. Makes every number sound real good.
I think Russ bray is best
They pretty much all do that, it’s just that Bevins has the voice of a choir boy that it’s more obvious
George Noble is my favorite 180 caller, followed closely by Russ Bray. Kirk is my favorite overall in terms of counting, game shot calls and those great 171/74/77 calls
Same here 👍
I get ear pain every time I hear George Nobles 180
Those 171/177 calls from Kirk are freaking awesome lol. His 180s not so much. It's how darts scores are supposed to be called! The Puppy is right alongside him with his style and the best 180s.
Noble's 180 call is smooth as silk. 10/10
Yeah, how 180s should be called in darts! But otherwise it's Kirk Bevins hands down, especially when he lets rip on the 177s etc! lol
Russ Brays 180s are like someone putting on a chainsaw when you've just started saying something. Love it
I like Paul Hinks' calls the most. They are simple, but good and definitely not annoying.
Russ Bray is simply the legend. Close second is the smooth George Noble. Those two stand leagues ahead of the rest with their iconic calls (even though they're miles apart in style).
Rest In peace Bruce Spendley 1940-2021 absolute gentleman
Amen.
amen
Paul hinks has the best 180 I don’t know why I absolutely love it lol
180: Russ Bray
170+: Kirk Bevins
140: Russ Bray
Bruce Spendley's 180 call is by far my favourite.
And his Game Shot too.
Yes for sure
And the winers is George Noble (The Puppy)
I love all callers. The PDC does well in selecting them
Gotta love the voice, but Noble was what I heard growing up! AMAZING 180 call
Paul Hinks 180s are the best!!
Haven’t even watched the video. But the answer is Russ Bray.
Paul Hinks on the 180, Kirk Bevins for the 177 and George Noble on the 130+ scores.
Noble’s 180 is goat, nobody can tell me otherwise
George Noble always the best, he got to call both of Phil's 9 darters against James Wade in the 2010 premier league final
The old school calls for 180 are the best
WWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANhandradanAAAYYYYYYYYYYteeeee
Got to be ole Freddie love the way he says 60 haha
Same. 100 & 140.
I love Paul hinks 180 call… it’s like he’s not bothered 🤣🤣🤣
Kirk Bevins without a doubt! World Championships final 2022 was just something else that put him on the map
Mine was the 2018 Worlds, especially that MVG-Cross Semifinal that put him on the map.
It's so hard to pick a favourite, each of them are so good! I love when Phil Taylor kisses Bruce Spendley before he's finished announcing him as world champion!
oh come on, Hinks calls 177 same way as 60
That’s because hinks is shit
@@greaser7765 Get John Higgins to replace him
Dave you require fowrty 🤣🤣 class, love the arrows, god bless
Love this compilation but i like all of them
The old BDO ref Martin Fitzmaurice, big bloke with the balding pate... he was my favourite when watching The Lakeside world championships every New Year's in the 90s. Used to joke with mates that he could rest a pint on his huge beer belly! lol. Such a great caller!
Paul hinks and George noble. My favorites, but the 177, 174, 171, 168, 162 go to bevins for sure. Russ bray though, changed his 180 call a bit over the years but everyone knows his. I just love darts.
Yh he's shortened it of the top of my head, probably to not disturb the flow of the next thrower
Huw Ware reminds me so much of the caller who can be heard on the few surviving recordings of the News Of The Worlds finals at the Ally Pally. I imagine that when he was looking for his own style, he was inspired by that.
Got to be Russ Bray!! He’s got the best voice crack when he calls out 180 and he got me laughing so hard!!!😆😆
Kirk used to he my brother's maths teacher when he was still at school, and he's also been on Countdown. No wonder he's such a good referee
I love games where Kirk is the referee. Also, with Terry, I think he has a trademark when a player busts his score by going over by saying "Too many" rather than "No score".
Russ Bray screaming 180's are boss
Kirk is great, but I really like the last guy too, never seen him before but what a voice he has!
Anyone who likes to listen to the sound of hoover's or hairdryers to help them sleep, should appreciate paul hinks 180 calls. It's got that tone in sound for me.
George Noble is the best caller no question. Look up all of the best games of the last 10 years and George is calling nearly all of them. The man just lifts a crowd. Bruce Spendley's 180 calls were the best of the lot though
Noble has such a posh, smooth voice. It sounds really classic
1. Kirk Bevins
2. Russ Bray
3. George Noble
My opinion on the calls:
Best 180 Paul Hinks
Best 170... George Noble
Best 140 Freddie Williams
Best Game Shot Noble/Bevins
My favourite referee is Paul Hinks
Spot on with the 140.
@@lewissmith3896 i just love hearing it
Russ bray and George noble are the best. Kirk bevins is quality as well
In my Opinion you are the best darts Video Maker ❤
Thanks mate!
@@giacomopietrosanti-darts1195 i hope you become more clicks and i am from germany And I found you about Marcel.
George Noble the greatest voice in darts in my opinion
Russ Bray Is A Greatest Referee Of All Time, I Always Listen To His 180 And Its A Masterpiece.❤🎯
Everyone gangster until Noble announces the tie-break
Has to be Bruce spendley
Kirk bevans in my opinion gets involved with the match with how he calls, for example if someone has hit a 177 at a crucial and tense time he will exaggerate the call a lot more than usual.
Bruce Spendley was rightly inducted into the hall of fame. He really was bloody brilliant!
Wow very nice video go on like this❤❤
Huw sounds like that annoying teacher telling you to be quiet during a lesson
Can‘t get used to huw‘s calls haha
I hate him.
Got to be Paul, he has the most powerful voice. Sounds amazing and gets the party started
Can you include Charlie Corstophine? He reffed some European events and the Players' Championship finals.
George nobles 180 call is by far the best
Kirk understands the game and how to adapt his calls. Very intelligent individual - he did win a series of CountDown after all
Paul Hinks always my Favourite Ref. and Caller
Kirk bevins got my vote but its good to see paul hinks come back he was gone for a bit... saw lots of Huw ware during bdo mostly because I was day dreaming watching fallon sherock
All of them 🙏 All of theeeem 💥💥💥
Paul Hinks and Kirk Bevans are my favourite callers on 180
Huw Ware has all it takes to be a professional referee- everything but the voice. The job is like being a radio host. You can be a good host all you want, but if you don't have a pleasant voices, no one will listen to it. Same for Huw unfortunately.

He has an good voice
Yea his voice is kind of annoying
when you hear him talk normally he sounds fine but when calling scores he sounds retarded.
Kirk Bevins just sings his numbers now 🤣
It's gotta be Russ Bray.
Alot of people are saying Kirk which is fair but he's too inconsistent for me, he'll either do the best call of 140 or the version he does in this vid where he mumbles the 40 part. And often he does the mumble version.
Just imagine Brian Blessed as a ref 😂😂😂
Great video idea! I like the voice from Russ, but sometimes he takes too long and rarely makes mistakes. But i'm satisfied with the core team in the tournaments. Who is your favourite?
Kirk Bevins!
My favourite referee is Russ Bray.
Hey Giacomo Pietrosanti, could you maybe make a video with all the commentators in it please, and see who people think commentates the best? I think you've made some great videos, and I think that a video like that would work too.
Russ Bray's 180 is badass
George Noble for me. So smooth.
Well kirk bevins makes little mistakes and has calls based on situations so it has to be him but russ bray is iconic.
Love Kirk singing 180. Also with Terry Jowett, if a player busts his or her score by scoring too many, instead of saying "no score", he'll say "too many". Love it.
I hope he'll ref again when the World Series are back to hear this!

I'm sorry but Huw Ware is the badest caller....
I'm almost crying after his 180s
Such an annoying voice
@Don Robbie with Devon petersen
Worst*

Guess Noble is the best one from this group. My favorite caller is Nick Rolls though!
Pual hinks is such a laugh
I always do the Hinks when i throw a 180 😂 to annoy my friends mostly 😋
Kirk bevens singing the 180 is hilarious
Kirk all day for me even my kids scream it like he does lol
I love them all
Bruce and Freddie easily
Yep.
Russ is gruff and gravelly and mostly the same volume kirks is also up there because of the nuances in his voice when calling the scores hard to choose between them two
In 2022:
1. Kirk Bevins
2. Russ Bray
3. George Noble
4. Huw Ware
Huw ware should be binned
George Noble "The Puppy" is my favourite.
PAUL HINKS has got the best 180 - easily
Kirk is really great , love the way he says siiixty… and everything in the 170`s
Russ bray got the best 140 call
Bruce Spendley had the best game shot and the championship call. cant tel me otherwise
Bray goes full coffee machine doesn’t he?
Kirk is an absolute geezer. The best.
Kirk bevins is my favourite referee of all time and my 2nd favourite is russ bray
My fav is Kirk and then Paul Hinks :)
Bruce Spendly reminds me watching darts as a kid
3:50 The best 180!
Interesting how the guy hesitated for the 240!
Nice one
Kirk, the legend!
Does anyone know why Terry Jowett called two matches at the NZ darts masters and never before and never again? What's the reason for it. Who is he?
He's a local ref, PDC just decided to promote him in the New Zealand tournament for a day
@@giacomopietrosanti-darts1195 Thanks for you reply! I have to say I like the way he calls
@@jonasdeeror yeah me too! Unfortunately this year we won't see if he would be called again
Bruce Spendley without doubt.
George Noble has the best 180 call of all time.
