Does it really need to be an electronic one? A normal dart board is more than adequate to play a game of arrows on, I feel.

Steel Tip Darts

should an 11 year old bi-polar boy be allowed to play with real darts?
I would just like opinions about this question. And what age do you think children should be allowed to play with steel tip darts.
In a basement by himself at his grandmothers house, she’s upstairs?
If there is an adult, preferable to be related to the boy, (parent, uncle, etc), there is a very low risk, that something goes wrong….
As much as the boy live a normal life as better it is for him, otherwise, he would feel like “specially treated”, which is not comfortable…

Nowadays, you can find solutions for every printing problem from printer shops and even online printing businesses. All you need to do is simply let them know that you want to render their services. The printing business you are referring doesn’t matter, it can be small as well as large as a multinational enterprise. The thing that matters is the uncountable printing materials which can be a great use to your company operations. There are business printing materials are found in a variety of different uses both in office (as stationery and operational tools) and out of office (as advertising and promotional material).
A business can make significant impact on its market by utilizing business printing services. It can really accelerate your business profits and provides substantial return on investment. Just some of the products that can result from business printing and be used internally and externally in your business operations, advertising and public relations are: brochures, catalogs, flyers, posters, and banners, just to name a few. These attract attention and communicate your brand message and that is exactly what you are looking for in your promotional communications.
Brand recall
To illustrate this point, it is best to look at an example. In your business you might be considering producing some calendars, clocks, key chains, or similar, to give away for New Year’s celebrations or for Christmas. What do you think this will really do for your business in the eyes of your clients? More than just being a “freebie”, it actually shows goodwill, and secondly, the resulting effect is recall of the brand which you are promoting.
You can get the ultimate exposure of your brand by ensuring your logo is in a prominent position on your promotional products so that you recipients will notice it and associate the product with your brand. You should also focus on providing a promotional product that is of high visual quality and appearance. This is more likely to result in your recipient actually using the product and even placing it in a highly exposed area (for example, in their workplace) where it is likely to be picked up by other users, giving your promotional product the ability to affect more people than just the one person who was the original recipient. This is marketing bliss and the ultimate in what you should be aiming for in your marketing efforts when arranging business printing products.
Positioning
It’s one thing to just print something and distribute it at random, but it’s another to put it in front of the right people. I often use the analogy of throwing darts at a dart board. Would you rather be blindfolded and throw 100 darts at the board, hoping that one of them hits the bull’s eye? Or would you rather have only 10 darts, yet be free to look at the dart board, take careful aim, and be confident that your darts (while being fewer) will have the best chance of hitting the bull’s eye, or even just landing within close vicinity? I know which I would choose.
The same thing needs to occur with your business printing and marketing efforts. There’s no point in printing millions of items and blasting them out to anyone and everyone. That’s just a waste of resources, effort, time and money, and is contributing to the nuisance that people refer to as “junk mail”. Instead, you should spend some time researching exactly who would be the best recipient of your material, and then decide on quantities and distribution. This even gives you the opportunity to tailor your message and finely tweak your campaign according to whom you are targeting, prior to investing in business printing. This is the smart way to market your business.
Dart Boards

The most common dart board design is that of a clock which is circular in shape, has a circle inscribed on it with twenty segments with the numbers one to twenty mentioned on them in a random fashion which actually has an underlying pattern. The bull’s eye is the small black circle in the centre.
The two most common games are 501 and 301.In 501 a player starts with 501 points and has to reduce it to zero. Each player has to throw three darts and whatever he scores is deducted from the initial 501 points. The bull’s eye fetches 50 points, the outer rings 25 each etc. The player who first achieves the zero point is the winner. However the game can end only with a throw that lands in the double or bulls eye.301 is also played in the same way except that it starts with 301 points instead of 501.Another popular dart game is “Around the Clock”. Here, each player throws 3 darts and has to throw a dart in every segment beginning right from 1 to 20 and has to finish with the 25 and bull’s-eye. Players must start with 1 and cannot move to the next number till such time a dart has been thrown at the next target .The first player who hits all the targets and finally reaches the bull’s-eye wins the game.
Another common game is the cricket where two players toss a coin to see who would bat and who would be bowling. The batting player starts and tries at all turns scoring as many points as possible. The standard 501 scoring system is used. When the batting player scores more than 40 points in one go, the number of points more than 40 is added to the player’s score. Less than 40 the batting player scores nothing. The opposing player is considered to be the bowler and this player only aims the bull’s-eye. The bowler gets 2 wickets if he hits the bull’s-eye and 1 wicket for the 25 scorer ring. Players take turns until the bowling player throws a dart that scores the 10th wicket. After that the roles are interchanged and the other player has an innings of batting to do. This game ends when both players have played two innings each and the player with the higher score wins the match.

Dartboard

Dart games have become popular over the years as it is inexpensive to play, can be played indoors during bad weather, no dress codes are required, and can be played by anyone – male or female, young or old.
The basic requirements are a dartboard and darts. With the advancement of technology dartboards have also evolved through the times. The most common dartboard is the bristle board – either cork or sisal. Cork dartboards deteriorate quickly with continued used, as the darts leave holes in the boards and the cork crumbles. The fibrous nature of sisal, however, is able to overcome this drawback and has therefore gained popularity. Sisal does not crumble even after constant use. Electronic dartboards are also available, and are equipped with sensors allowing for automated scoring.
There are various types of darts. The main parts of a dart are the tip, barrel, shaft and flight. Tips are either steel or soft. Soft tips are preferred on electronic dartboards and cork dartboards and are also recommended for new players. Steel tips are for the more experienced dart players. Shafts also come in various types. Synthetic flights are the most common nowadays and can be combined with the shafts. The use of feathers as flights has decreased considerably nowadays.
Many dart accessories are available nowadays. Instead of simply hanging the dartboard on walls, dart cabinets can be used to add style and elegance to your dart game. Many players also attach add-a-grams to get the required weights on the darts. The perfect weight improves accuracy in shooting. Dart mats are useful for new players, as the bounce-off from the boards may cause considerable damage to the floor. It is also important to have a rulebook as there are many methods of keeping scores and the game can be played under different rules. Scoreboard is also a must if you are not using electronic dartboards.

Electronic Dart Boards

The dart board has been around for many years, the first ones were simple barrel ends. They progressed to purpose made wooden dart boards usually made of elm. Unfortunately they were prone to splitting so they were soaked overnight in water which also had the benefit of closing up the dart holes as the wood swelled.A company called Nodor changed all that and were the first company to produce the Bristle dart board, patenting the design in the 1930’s. There was a myth that pig bristles were used in the manufacture, but pig bristle was never used, instead the bristles were small pieces of rope bundled together and compressed to form a smooth surface with a natural self healing property that lasts for a very long time.
Nodor got a patent for the design and so were the only manufacturer for 25 years or so for the life of the patent. After the patent expired other manufacturers entered the arena most notably Winmau . And you thought Nodor was a funny name. Apparently the name Winmau was made up from the first three letters of the two names of the wife of the company director “Winifred Maud” hence Winmau.
Winmau and Nodor fought for supremacy in the dart board market for many years until Nodor eventually took over the Winmau brand. During this time Winmau came up with their famous Blade board with ultra thin wire separators and Nodor came up with the first staple free bulls eye dart board.
The bristle boards were used in all the big tournaments that started in the 70’s and are still used today in the prestigious tournaments like the Las Vegas classic and the British Lakeside tournament.
Then came Electronics, the electronic dart board came on the scene and changed the game overnight. The odd thing about electronic boards is they are covered in hundreds of small holes for the special soft tip darts to enter. At first glance you think how can the dart get into those holes so exactly? The answer is the holes are at the bottom of a small dimple in the board, which guides the dart tip into the hole. And it works very well with nowhere near the amount of bounce outs you might expect. Also of course those holes have sensors, which tell the electronics where the dart has landed and records the score of the dart automatically. This was a great boon to darters as they no longer had to keep score and the boards could be networked to collect all the scores from the boards on a computer, great for tournaments.
The difference with the electronic dart board are that you have to use soft tip darts, and the tips are made of plastic so as not to damage the board. (Never use normal steel tip darts on an electronic board) Also the maximum weight of dart allowed on most electronic dart boards is 20 grams.
There is now a new technology, Bristletech dart boards, which are electronic dart boards that can take steel tip darts as well as the soft tip variety, so you have the best of both worlds. The Bristletech technology is set to dominate the dart board market in the future.
The archers of old would marvel at how their game has developed and I’m sure there is more to come, especially with the development of Bristle type boards combined with electronics. The electronic game is popular in both Europe and the US and who knows, the big tournaments like the Las Vegas classic may go that way too.

Dart Board

What is the expected value of a random dart throw at a standard dart board?
If not for the bullseye and double/triple areas, the answer would be 10. My guess is the answer is around 15.
Assuming you hit the scoring area of the dartboard, according to my calculations … the expected value of the dart is approximately 13.2 (if only whole number values are considered then either 13 or 14). I calculated this by using the area of the various segments of the dartboard multiplying the probability by the value of a dart landing in that area, and taking the sum of those values. The link below is where I got the dimensions … I think the logic is sound … but I ran through it pretty quickly.

Soft Darts

The most common dart these days is the 80% tungsten dart. This is a great advance on the brass darts and the wooden darts that came before that. The main reason that darts are made of tungsten is that tungsten is a very heavy material and darts can be made much thinner than before by using it (perhaps we’ll use platinum next, boy they would be expensive) What this means is that the darts can fit together much more closely in the dart board, giving rise to the greater possibility of higher scores. (which is what we all want , Right! )
Tungsten, which means heavy stone in Swedish apparently, is a remarkable metal with the highest melting point of any metal at 3000 degrees C or so. The reason you don’t get 100% tungsten darts is because pure tungsten is a very brittle metal and is commonly mixed with nickel to make the dart less brittle and easier to manufacture. 95% tungsten is the highest alloy level so far sold by Bottelsen and are a tad pricey. It is not really worth paying the extra for 95% tungsten darts, if the pros are winning tournaments with 80% darts thats proof enough.
When it comes to the grip on the barrel of the dart there are many types to choose from diamond pattern knurled barrel to plain and now the new edge grip. Just get a design you are comfortable with, try out your mates darts to see what suits you.
Dart tips come in two styles, a fixed steel tip for use on Bristle dartboards or replaceable soft tips for use on electronic dart boards. More and more darts are coming out with 2BA screw threads on both ends of the barrel so you can put soft tip or steel tip or even the steel tip retractable on the end of the barrel. One point to note here is that usually the maximum weight of dart allowed on electronic dart boards is 20 gram, so if you want your darts to be used on all type of boards, do not go over 20 gms for your dart barrel.
Next comes the shaft to hold the flights, it should be light to keep the weight of the dart forward and are made from plastic, aluminium, steel wire or even titanium! The only thing to worry about with the shafts is that they are straight and undamaged so the flights are held in place properly. The latest innovation is spinning shafts, which are designed to rotate out of the way to minimise the deflection of the dart when it hits a flight. This seems a great idea to me, it helps to protect the flight as well.
That just leaves the flights, which come in loads of amazing designs and materials. The shapes include the classic “kite” design, which are relatively large to the pear drop and all stages in between. Ensure you use the same style of flight on all 3 darts and keep them spread so that there is a 90 degree angle between the four flight pieces to aid in consistency of your throw. Also use flight protectors, not only do they protect your flight; they will keep the flight at the optimum shape as a bonus.
So to sum up, get yourself some tungsten darts, the average weight is 18
