I ordered this set today because unfortunately it wasn't available in any shop in my immediate vicinity. This dart actually has everything I was looking for: a short barrel, the front scallop and it seems to be very well balanced. The price is of course very high, which usually puts me off buying a set without throwing it at least a few times to try it out. I was really hoping for this review because I took away a lot of useful things from these videos. Well, hopefully this set will live up to the expectations I have. Thank you for the contribution.👍
Now that I've had the time to test this set extensively for 1 week, I can confirm a lot of what is explained in this video. I was a bit worried that the grip in the front might not be enough for me. And indeed, it's not as grippy as one would expect from the pictures, but that doesn't bother us at all in this case, since the scallop offers great orientation and the dart lies very well in the hand. What should be emphasized, however, is the great balance. As someone who usually plays rather heavily front loaded darts, I can say that I have rarely played such a well-balanced dart, even if it took me longer than usual to get used to my throwing arm and to tinker with this set a bit until I got the right combination of shaft and flight for me. You could say it's love at second sight. But as you know, it lasts longer, doesn't it?😉
Another great review Darren 👍🏻 these are right up my street & I'm a rear gripper so a win win. It's also a sexy looking dart from Shot....one of my favourite brands. Definitely on my list but not this month as I'm having my Shot Warrior Outlaw dartboard framed for the wall. Most definitely will pick up a set of these. Again thanks my friend for a great review 🎯👌🏻😁
@@DartsReviewChannel yes it took me awhile for them to fly right for me but so did the Tribal Weapon 3’s but they ended up being one of the best darts I’ve ever had
Very nice looking darts. Nice to see a perfect weight match. Double 4 lol 🤣 What was Rocky the main stars 🌟 verdict? Really enjoyed the review Darren thanks mate keep em coming 👍🏻 🎯 happy darting 🎯
I bought them in 24g. My first impression is the same, Darren: they feel lighter than their actual weight. So thanks for pointing that out, because sometimes I buy the 23g version and that wouldn't have been the best choice here!
This will be my 3rd dart from the Tribal Weapon range I´ll gladly add to my collection, but tbh I like the Notorious BDG better because of the heavy similarities to the Merv King SE darts I get along with pretty fine. Rowby-John´s new dart also looks amazing,...will be one of these expensive months once again, I guess....
Darren! Digging the new challenge segment, looking forward to you end of the year results. I know a lot of people are saying they are overpriced, but shot machines the most intricate darts in my opinion. You get what you pay for.
Shot does have some nice stuff but definitely on the expensive side. Looks pretty nice to hold onto for a bomb shzped dart. If you put out a Rocky dart, I will be first in line. Definitely want the pawprint on the box!!!
Really like the look of those. I wouldn't be bothered with the price if it wasn't for the cheap packaging that always puts me off shot darts. They come across as just overpriced. No effort into presentation. They should take some tips from Target Darts at least....
Problem is they are usually only high priced in other countries not at origin country so its not really seen as a set needing a fancy presentation box. Such boxes are nice but a lot of people only want them if they are displaying the darts or collecting, if you are using them then most throw the box away which is a waste. The ones Shot do are small and neat and easy to store too. Would likely add more to the cost though if they made a fancy box.
Ive git these and my normal darts go in straight but these are very front heavy and go in sticking up a lot . For me they do but i still like them and they would probably be better with long flights
nice change of style on this review ;) .shot looks awesome and some of em have crazy grip aswell :) these look nice but yeah shot is expensive though. ive bought a set and im very happy with them so i might buy another in the future :)
So it’s not only me feeling that with every release the price of Darts goes up. I think 5-6 years ago 60-70€ were already really expensive darts, now it’s the regular
Thanks for the feedback, its good to hear want people think, helps me know what is worth keeping or not. Which music was it, the one in the intro, slow-mo or I suspect the throwing part? Would you prefer no music or something different?
Thanks a lot for the reply! I really like the intro and the music during the slo-mo also seems sensible. I was just a little bothered by the ''goofy'' and kind of repetitive music during the gameplay, but that’s only me and one person who liked my comment. I believe there is no need for any music during the gameplay, but if you like to add some maybe try a more ''chill'' tune. You could also try to have no sound and then comment on it with an audio tape later, maybe explaining more about the dart and how you feel about it or just joking around about being a ''treble 5 champion'' ;) I apologise, I hope everything was comprehensive, I’m not a native speaker :)
Thats great, no problem! Always like to get any feedback good or bad as it just helps. I know one person will like something and another will not, that is just life but got to try things I guess :) The music on that part is kind of a little in-joke with a friend, I like broccoli and the music is called "broccoli on my plate" lol I did it on a funny video before as a bit of a laugh. I can get how it may annoy people though. I may try a different tune or just leave it as you say.
I am not sure if its just the coating, I think often the barrels are coated and then recut so sometimes the coating looks a bit patchy but just guessing here :)
@@newfiekj I dont put them anywhere, its usually the local darters that buy them or people who message me online. Problem if you are overseas is I am not sure you will save much as I only send tracked which depending on the size of the package can add from £10 to £18+ Once I get properly organised though just about everything will either go on ebay or the forum or FB groups or possibly I will put them on my DRC site :)
I’m not a fan or Shot because I think they focus too much on making their darts look fancy which drives the price to be ridiculously expensive; they need to focus more on function and performance, BUT to each their own…I know a lot of people like to get these for the look…anyway, thanks for the review all the same, matey
Taylor doesnt have the monopoly on that style, the Taylor darts were copied from the John Lowe dart but even then there was lots of darts in that shape before him too :)

@@mikegee3523 Glad to hear you like them, its always good to get other peoples views after they have tried them too, cheers! :)
price aside, they look great with interesting shape. The review is as thorough as it gets. Thanks Darren.
Thanks Ricky! :)

Thanks Dan! :) Should look good in a frame :)
The challenge part...Good addition to your review. Good looking darts.
Thanks Mario, will probably keep that as most seem to like it :)
I like the routines you've added to the reviews. I've started doing them as well and find them quite entertaining.
Thanks John! Its just something for a bit of fun. I do better when I have had a few goes though lol :)
Just got a set of these. Fantastic darts. Lovely crystal clear close ups in video 👍🏻
I played with them afterwards too, got them flying rather nice with a bit more time :)
@@DartsReviewChannel yes it took me awhile for them to fly right for me but so did the Tribal Weapon 3’s but they ended up being one of the best darts I’ve ever had
Great review, as always! I've been waiting to see these reviewed. I'm definitely going to get these eventually. Thanks Darren.
Thanks Edward! :)
Very nice looking darts. Nice to see a perfect weight match. Double 4 lol 🤣 What was Rocky the main stars 🌟 verdict? Really enjoyed the review Darren thanks mate keep em coming 👍🏻 🎯 happy darting 🎯
Thanks Vic! Rocky likes em! :)
That's one of the most beautiful looking darts😳😍
I think a lot of Shot darts are :)
I love shots darts and i throw with a set but these are abit hideous.
I love Shot darts, always well crafted & nicely designed!
They are :)
enjoying the challenges Darren they look like an expensively nice set of darts esp for rear grippers.keep up the good work man live your work
Thanks Calvin! :)
Tempted by these. Look like a great dart. Thanks for reviewing
No problem! :)
Great review mate, really liking the new challenge part of the video 👍🏻
Cheers Alan, glad to hear you like that, thanks! :)
Great looking set. Love the way the grips look on those. I might have to get me a set if those. Love the chalenges at the end of the videos
Thanks 👍😊
Very nice looking dart, looks good for a rear gripper. Thanks Darren for the review stay safe always
Thanks mate! :)
I really want these but too expensive.

Rowby-John´s new dart also looks amazing,...will be one of these expensive months once again, I guess....
Its a popular range :)
These look amazing
thanks for the good review
bought this set today
beautiful set fun to throw with
Darren! Digging the new challenge segment, looking forward to you end of the year results.
I know a lot of people are saying they are overpriced, but shot machines the most intricate darts in my opinion. You get what you pay for.
Thanks Dave! They often have more machining and coating than some of the Japanese darts and less than half the price of a lot of those :)
Like the song by the Monks....Nice looks, shame about the price
:)
A lovely dart…… beautifully made ……. It a lot more you can say……… a fabulous option for those who like bomber style darts
Indeed :)
Shot does have some nice stuff but definitely on the expensive side.
Looks pretty nice to hold onto for a bomb shzped dart.
If you put out a Rocky dart, I will be first in line.
Definitely want the pawprint on the box!!!
LOL Pawfect!
Have the 22g in steel and the 20g in soft on order. Can’t wait to try them. I may give the wing slim condors another go with these.
Should be a good combo :)
How the hell is this possible that each one model of darts they're releasing looks freaking good? But those prices :-/ still too high
They do look good for sure :)
@@DartsReviewChannel they looks fantastic! Maybe i'll buy them :D

@DartsReviewChannel a pouch to store them would be nice. If they are cheaper at country of origin than here in the UK I'm surprised they even sell.
@@l00t3R They are about £20 cheaper in New Zealand :)
118 sterling in Iceland
Good looking dart again from Shot and it's quality but it's overpriced. Great review as always.
Thanks mate! :)
Good work Darren, what were the points like ? Grip well 🎯
Cheers! All the etch points do but they usually smooth off fairly quickly :)
nice change of style on this review ;) .shot looks awesome and some of em have crazy grip aswell :) these look nice but yeah shot is expensive though. ive bought a set and im very happy with them so i might buy another in the future :)
Thanks Kevin! :)
Nice looking arrows. Good review.
Thanks! :)
what about mission kuro m2 21g.? .. hope you will review them :)
Will do :)
Great review as always. I like the look of those but the price is a bit off putting. The price of darts nowadays is almost ridiculous.
So it’s not only me feeling that with every release the price of Darts goes up. I think 5-6 years ago 60-70€ were already really expensive darts, now it’s the regular
@@Neutronity yeah unfortunately you'd think with modern CNC machining that the darts manufacturer's could bring the price's down.
Even If the packaging looked more premium...instead of something that fell out of a Christmas cracker
Thanks! :)
Nice looking vastly overpriced as always Darren a great review 👍
Cheers Jeff! :)
HI Guys I've had it confirmed that the aggressive points rule DOES NOT APPLY to pub or superleague darts
Good but never thought it did anyway :)
I want to these, dame you shot darts. Did you ever throw with these after the review? Look like they’d suit me.
I cant remember now to be honest lol Think I tried them for a while :)
95 £ ... overpriced .
Everything is becoming overpriced these days not just darts, getting beyond a joke now it is!
@@barty2381 yeah. Groceries are unaffordable
I like the fact that you try to change things up a bit, but I trink the background music is kind of annoying :)

Me coming back and winning some legs in the darts league when I'm 200 behind, that's savage lol 😆
LOL :)
Looks like a great big blimp not 4 me although i love shots darts and throw with them great reveiw as usual keep em coming 👍.
Thanks! :)
My result to your challenge :
1) = 3 :(
2) = 17
3) = 53
4) = 500
So i totalize 573 ! ;)
Good effort! You did well on the bulls :)
I honestly wouldn't know where to place my fingers on those ones lol. I like bomb style but not scallops
yeah not to everyones liking
Are these similar to phase 5 taylors ?
similar shape
Call me picky but the finish on the milling looks a little bit messy on these
I am not sure if its just the coating, I think often the barrels are coated and then recut so sometimes the coating looks a bit patchy but just guessing here :)
Lovely set of darts. Out of my price range though.....again.😆
Thye look great, giveaway coming? :)
Not for these but some others soon :)
@@DartsReviewChannel I wouldn’t give those away either Darren, a few sets of shots would be a good pension
@@broughcooper1580 lol
Do you ever sell these?
Yeah sometimes :)
@@DartsReviewChannel is there an ebay site you use that I can be checking?
I used to sell on eBay often but not sold on there for a few years now
Well let me know where to keep an eye out and I might go you up at some point
@@newfiekj I dont put them anywhere, its usually the local darters that buy them or people who message me online.

👍🏻
Busy for a short dart.
Guess it is lol :)
I’m not a fan or Shot because I think they focus too much on making their darts look fancy which drives the price to be ridiculously expensive; they need to focus more on function and performance, BUT to each their own…I know a lot of people like to get these for the look…anyway, thanks for the review all the same, matey
They make more simple practical darts too but I know plenty who use the fancy darts as their main match darts also :)
A Phil Taylor design dart from shot normally the tribal weapon is something special i dont see it here
Taylor doesnt have the monopoly on that style, the Taylor darts were copied from the John Lowe dart but even then there was lots of darts in that shape before him too :)
