Darts, Robin Hood Style
2009 January 23
Jack and I were playing cricket a week or two ago and I tossed a dart only to see it split the tail or the dart I had thrown previously. Any dart enthusiasts out there know what the correct ruling is for this? Jack and I suspected it probably the same as if the dart had just hit the board and bounced off, but I’m curious.

Not nearly as robin hood as my shot, which was so dead on that it went into the plastic part of the first dart, pulling off the tail and falling to the ground. I need a phone with a camera.
Maybe next time they should bust the campo dart throwing myth instead robinhood with arrows

perhaps they just didn’t shoot enough arrows? I would expect the arrow to wobble and make this almost impossible. But maybe it will work just that one time.
You are correct – it does not count for anything. Fun none the less!
You are correct. That dart counts for nothing just as if it hit the floor. For any dart to count, the point of the dart must be in the dartboard.
