One of the first things I figured out was the more you can minimize extraneous movement the more accurate you will be. It's simple logic to eliminate as many variables as possible. Barney's stroke typifies this idea.
What an eye opener, barnie probably has the smoothest throw of all the professional dart players these days, but 3 fingers on the point, that is unique, most advise a 3 three finger overall grip or 4 at the most, I'd like to see mvgs throw broken down, and Daryll Gurney's.
I consider RVB as the best trowing player ever as throwing like him is extremely difficult. I know it requires a lot of practice but whenever i see him playing the darts i feel extremely incompetent regarless my experience but it motivates do not give up that and keep practice....
It requires a lot of practice. My throw is very similar to Barney's. You have to practice a lot to find the perfect timing to release the dart. However, when I find the perfect timing, you feel like hitting everything you are aiming at. And it looks so smooth but sometimes I tend to just releasing the dart instead of throwing it.
@@avery_nicegirl9 I have had a problem with my elbow that tended to bent to one side. I have fixed that and in good days I throw at least similiar to I would expect to throw. even tons and maximums have returned back. but in bad days it's still horrendous. like i said it's neverending work to stand in front of dartboard and dart by dart improve myself :)
@@TomasMisura sorry to hear from your injury. Same here, sometimes I feel like hitting everything but on the other day I play so bad. I have been struggling with Dartitis btw for 5 years.
@@avery_nicegirl9 More than injury i simply was not able during aiming phase to keep hand in straigh line and when I've thrown the dart sometimes I hit myself with hand. It was very frustrating and spent a lot of time to fix it...
@@vilimiryordanov8502 Pause right at the end of 1:42. Looks like his pinky is on the point. He only said that when he releases the dart, he lets go of the pinky. Which you can see during 1:43 to 1:44.
Jesus Christ, I almost admire the way the darts commentators and the pundits seem to be able to complicate and over evaluate what in reality is a straight forward game
@@TomMellorx I 've played darts on and off for years mate, what I'm saying is there's no need for all this technical nonsense, you think Raymond Barneveld thinks about all that stuff Rod Harrington was banging on about?
Have you analysed any throws? Phil Taylor throw is amazing every single aspect is unique and he has to make sure that every dart thrown is the same. Tough to do.
when asked how do you hold the dart, barneveld holds the dart like he supposedly always holds it. but when he throws, you can see that his index finger is pointing up and his pinky isn't touching the tip of the dart at all. bad analysis👎🏼
@@larsbutschle6813 He throws "natural"which is good..but not preferred to teach others..his stance is very bad. Think it derives from playing as a little kid..however he has a solid speed, and that seems to be favorable over a softer throw. for him it works..as long as he does not think about things...bam bam bam..
When I started throwing darts again after twenty years I watched all the pros. To me, RVB and Phil Taylor have the best form and were the one's worth emulating. Especially Barney's beautiful, relaxed throw. If I could only throw half as well.
I tried out this grip and instantly got a more accurate throw. Finally no wobbling and I'm able to throw the darts within a circle of 2 cm. When things start to fall apart, that's because I'm not able to throw so smoothly and relaxed as he does. But that's the key, relaxedness. Thank you for these videos.
His elbow has dropped a lot in the last 3/4 years, and he doesn't throw firm enough for his action. His old throw 2005-2012 was the best around. I reckon he's contemplating for the darts he uses these days. Shame!!!
@@tectorama Well I hope you have installed your dartboard and practicing. I expect to hear about you getting through Q-School and qualifying for a tour card in the next 5 years.
Thank you. Was just thinking that with the Target Launch around the corner, he has new ones. You’re right . I‘m also concerned that Taylor shouldn’t sign with target - his phase 5 were the best for him
So far, that's still Target actually! He can't use the other darts that is beside Target while his darts sponsor remains like that. Let's make a petition of him to use Unicorn darts again!
Always loved Barney's throw, classic! :)
So smooth
indeed :)
You blocked me on twitter an I am not quite sure why but I have to agree
@@kingkitchener who me? I just searched your name on Twitter and you are not blocked?
Definitely one of the smoothest and most natural throws ever seen on the tour
Big Thank you PDC 😁😀👍🏼
Wish the legend a happy retirement !
And now his return 😂

Always enjoy watching his throw, just super smooth 👌
Love these reviews Rod.. thank you.. been waiting for Barney's review too.. Legend! 👍
i love watching him throwing darts, in my opinion the best throw ever !!!
They listened to me. I needed Barney. Now I need Gerwen and Cross
One of the greatest of all time!
What a smooth action. Legend.

Great video as always. I would like to see Rob Cross or Daryl Gurney next
Must be a Dutch thing to speak better English than most English people
Barney is back
what's the name for the flights he uses? Or point me in the direction where to buy them online?
BRING THIS SERIES BACK
Smooth as the Sky in the American West
Do it with John Henderson!
Great series!

@@TomasMisura ohh wow that sounds really hard, you must have felt devasted.
Strange, the way he shows his grip and the way it looks when he throws are way different. ??
I totally agree
I also agree! When watching him throw, his pinky is definitelly not on the point!

Still the best throw in the game, period.
Hey they did my suggestion!!!
what is the name of these darts? i like the system of the flights!
Smooth trow he say.
the last trow, Look at how his dart is wobbling. and then hit the board
4:28
Thats because of the flights, but the throwing action is really smooth
Barney’s immediate straight foot thought was Roland Scholten, my man
I have needed to find a better grip and something like his may be the one, and I like a forward grip
What is the position of the wrist/forearm in relation to the bicep, should it be lined up straight or slightly to the left
My heart is broking peace champion i,m never vorget you 😥👋
Please, please make a Tutorial of phil taylors throw!!! Please!!!!
"tutorial" xDDD

The Big Ease? Almost lol, it's "The Big Easy"....
Jesus Christ, I almost admire the way the darts commentators and the pundits seem to be able to complicate and over evaluate what in reality is a straight forward game

Thats kinda cringe
the grip he demonstrates is nothing like when he actually throws a few seconds later. "Secret dart grips lol"
Do Michael van Gerwen next!
best throw ever imho
should not be attempted, horrible throw..massive movement and great power very nasty stance etcetc
@@andrehof7876 of course terrible throw... thats why he is world no1 for so long
And there is no movement at all

Could you maybe do a my throw 3.0 because i would love to see some more of these videos, they are awesome ❤️
Also there are "new" players with different throws that haven't been talked about here.

Can't forget about Price or van Gerwen
Exactly, my throw is similar but it’s about consistency
Whitlock please, would be great
Barny army
Need to get Richard Burnett on here
imagine he wears a gopro.
it will become an action movie
Next up please Simon Whitlock
Oh fuck off
joe cullen does simon whitlock better than simon himself. some funny imprressions. it's all about the booty baby
Simon Whitlock next please 😊
Fuwh0
I also use the 8 Flight System, it´s really awesome !!!
🇳🇱🎯🐯🧡 #BarneyArmy 🧡🐯🎯🇳🇱
My throw is awesome, thanks for bringing it back. Love to see the broken down detail
I wish he wouldn't interject when Barny is trying to talk. Lets here the pro tell us about his throw.
His throw is like silk, smooth.
no player have same stile!
What is the name of the song called at the beginning?😊
MVG, Peter Wright and Rob Cross pleeeeaaaaaseeee 😊
Barney's throw is very smooth
Have you ever seen Ted hankey
Or Steve Beaton
Michel van gerven,van barvelend'prive'peter wright handerson'hopp

RvB best style. But u can't copy a throw. Practice is everything. 🎯✌️🇩🇪
Barney, Anderson and Hankey have the smoothest throws. MVG throws harder and more straight forward so the chance on wobbling of the darts is smaller
His elbow has dropped a lot in the last 3/4 years, and he doesn't throw firm enough for his action. His old throw 2005-2012 was the best around. I reckon he's contemplating for the darts he uses these days. Shame!!!
2012*
Legend, hope his fairytale happens, would be great
That Ernie Els comparison is bang on
John Part next please
This video is from an era where two white middle aged men can talk, one on one, about darts and it wasn't seen as weird. How primative we once were!
I hope more of these this year
Love this series
Mark den Heijer dit gaan we proberen!!
Although I like to play darts, my biggest problem is that I am useless at mental arithmetic.
I would never know what I should be going for.
Playing the game will improve your mental arithmetic.
@@jamieshannon9809 That's what I was saying :)
@@tectorama Well I hope you have installed your dartboard and practicing. I expect to hear about you getting through Q-School and qualifying for a tour card in the next 5 years.
Please do Michael smith
Michael Smith does your mom
they can't because before Rodney makes a point about something, Michael would already be gone collecting darts from the board.
The Dr. Dre of dartz
3:42 grip
What's the name of that chilled background music? Sounds like beat
Barney is a dinosaur

8 Flight is a own company. Its not Target.
They're owned by target I'm pretty sure, they were there own company but got bought out
looks kind of like the new unicorn volute points
But I think they are Target Fire Points Edge.
Does he have new darts ?
He is using his old Unicorn darts as far as I know. He plays much better with them !
Thank you. Was just thinking that with the Target Launch around the corner, he has new ones.

Damn, let the man talk for goodness sake. What's the point of having a video with RVB if you are just gonna do all the talking. Frustrating.
