Great video, thank you! You inspired me to come up with something similar for doubles and checkouts. Here the ATW regimen that you suggested: Level 1 • 1-20 in order • Only singles count • No other restrictions Level 2 • Only big segments count • THREE lives (= darts on one segment) • MISS 3 darts (= loose three lives), go back a number • Lives REGENERATE on next number Level 3 • Only ONE live • Other than that same as level 2 Level 4 • NO lives • MISS, move one number back Level 5 • THREE lives • LOSE ALL LIVES back to 1 • Lives REGENERATE on next higher number (as far as I understood) Level 6 • TEN lives, no regeneration • TWO WAYS TO LOSE ○ MISS 10 targets ○ MISS 3 in a row
Great drill. I usually do 15 mins warm up and then do around the board in minimum darts possible. From now on will be level 6 after that warm up. Unless you can show me otherwise (learned a lot from the transition from dart 1 to 2 video) It was mentioned before about warming up before throwing. I think you guys should make a playlist of warm up/practice/ training drills but from getting ready to play, warming up and then practice/training routines.
GREAT !! Well explained, clear rules, ... More practice games like this please, with the different levels. How about loose darts, any good exercises to "fix" this ?
Class video guys. As someone who lingers around 50% on the regular around the board I kind of lose motivation as soon as I fumble one of the sections (because then I know the percentage will be lower than my best or average). With drills like these, it's a better way of keeping interest and pressure throughout the entire training drill, and you can increase the difficulty for each time you feel the drill becomes too easy
I play around the board (single segments) sometimes but I have made a game of it with a record to beat so I think it's a decent training mode. You hit consecutive targets, one miss and you start over. 1 to 20 is one lap. My record is one lap and then up to 14 on my second lap.
Morecambe and Wise, The Two Ronnies, Reeves and Mortimer, Laurel and Hardy............like them, you guys are a great comedy Double act!! DOUBLE act.....Darts.....Doubles.....Geddit? I'll get my coat!!
Excellent video fellas! I was looking for a great example of how to create levels to ramp up the difficulty of a simple game. Still stuck on 'Become a darts master level 5' Matt (getting closer though, finished it in 8 throws). Would love to see you guys play this game though to it's completion. Perhaps, like this, a short video for the information and then the following vid, you play it for our enjoyment, curiosity (please include the commentary (s%*t-talking) though if you were to do this).
Not clear in lvl 5, if you hit after a miss, you get all 3 lives back? So it's 3 misses in a row (going back a number each time) that leads to a restart?
I always suggest this, because if you struggle with doubles then. It's an absolute task to go around the board at doubled. Your trying to learn 21 positions at once. Accuracy training is a great idea, so like Matt says in the video. Aim at the Fat segment, so start aiming towards the top of the fat segment. Pick a few common doubles and focus on them. 16, 8,4,20,10,5 and bull Then once you Accuracy improves, make the target smaller.
@@craigblackmore9896 thanks for the reply. I do spend time throwing at double 16, 20, 10, 18, 12 and the bull. Depending on the day and how much time I have I need to hit at least 5, 10 or 20 of each. But this still feels more like practice rather than training. I guess my question was more how I turn double practice into training like Matt did for single numbers in this video.
Great video, thank you! You inspired me to come up with something similar for doubles and checkouts.
Here the ATW regimen that you suggested:
Level 1
• 1-20 in order
• Only singles count
• No other restrictions
Level 2
• Only big segments count
• THREE lives (= darts on one segment)
• MISS 3 darts (= loose three lives), go back a number
• Lives REGENERATE on next number
Level 3
• Only ONE live
• Other than that same as level 2
Level 4
• NO lives
• MISS, move one number back
Level 5
• THREE lives
• LOSE ALL LIVES back to 1
• Lives REGENERATE on next higher number (as far as I understood)
Level 6
• TEN lives, no regeneration
• TWO WAYS TO LOSE
○ MISS 10 targets
○ MISS 3 in a row

That was great! I keep a dartboard in my office and needed a new practice game for those days when real work just isn't happening.
GREAT !!
Well explained, clear rules, ...
More practice games like this please, with the different levels.

More of this Please

Great idea and great video.
Thanks!

Love when Matt gets all scientific and stuff
lol not sure Andy does..

He literally says if you hit it you’re on to the next number with your 3 darts back. 6:47
Dave down the pub is getting dropped for the next match 😂
lol
+1
So how do you train rather than practice doubles? Bored of going round the board on doubles and it doesn’t seem to lead to much improvement.

Repeat Your Process….Darts is about…repetition….. internally…
Andy needs some acting classes. Those misses on purpose did not convice me haha :D
Andy here yes you were right ( I wish )
@@missiondarts those misses when Matthew was expaining what would happen when you miss (when you group 2 darts in the 16) seemed very intentional :D
I have always wondered why its 1-20 and not 20-1 when around the board.
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
