My Current Practice Routine 2016!

Hi Guys

I just wanted to let you know my current practice routine

Around the Board:

Fat Singles 1-20
Doubles 1-20
Triples 1-20
25
50
20's:

repetitions: as many as you like

This is designed to give a good workout whether you have 20-30 minutes or 4 hours!

Whats good about this is that it makes you practice the 'unusual' segments. usually its  the 20's, and 19's that get hammered with a desire to leave 32 or 40 etc,

That's great play, however what happens when its a crucial game and you end up with 1 dart left and its 38, 22,  or 7 etc??? usually its a miss or single which means you have to use 1 of your 3 darts to get back on an 'out' (if you haven't been finished off). By practicing the whole board you will at least have some confidence that you have a chance rather than think "f**k i've never thrown at D7 before"

In-fact i will be honest, i have probably taken out more D7's than i'd care to mention, whilst my opponent thinks there back in (lets be honest who likes or goes for D7??)...........the reason???? I practice the dodgy 'outs', and its demoralising for the opposition as they're constantly aware than any 'out' is do'able!

Another key is to practice the corresponding double e.g.

if you like D16, practice D8 as much. Same with D10 if you like tops! That way if you miss you have a 'cover' double.  You dont want to be in a crucial leg and go for your favourite D18 without being secure on D9 as if you miss  its a long way back and unless you take out 1, D4 your looking at some nasty doubles down there!

Good luck guys
