Some darts are heavier towards the front of the dart front-loaded and others are back-weighted. Try them all and you'll develop a feel for what works best for you. Your next step is to try out different barrel grips that are available in the weight you have chosen. Some dart barrels have heavy knurling and others are smooth. Typically, the heavier the knurling the easier it is to grip the dart.
Extremely heavy knurling however, can cause darts to stick to your fingers and mess with your accuracy. For the typical dart player, there is more than one dart barrel that will work. Just make sure to choose the one that feels the best. There are many different sizes and styles of flights, including smooth and dimpled surfaces.
The size and style of your flights can impact your game. Dimpled surfaces, for example, will help slow down and stabilize your darts. Try out all dart flight sizes and styles until you feel comfortable with your final configuration, but don't be afraid to experiment as time goes by. The two most popular sizes are standard and slim. If you hold yours in the middle, fear not you are in good company.

If the hands are extremely dry, knurled barrels are good while for large hands, a larger barrel diameter is perfect. Well moisturized hands women mostly can do well with just a few grooves on a smooth barrel How to choose the perfect dart shaft The shaft is the part above the barrel, and its job is to hold the flight and give good distance between the barrel and the flight. If yours is a light but strong throw, a longer shaft will help your dart fly better. If your throw is powerful but paced, rely more on a shorter shaft.
If your dart wobbles, you can correct this by shortening the shaft length. The more expensive titanium shafts are sturdy and will not bend or break.
How to choose the perfect dart flights The flight provides drag not lift, and they steer as well as maintain the stability of your dart to the board. Dimpled flights can help slow down your dart, stabilizing it. A heavy dart needs larger flights also known as standards.
Lighter darts can utilize smaller flights known as speed flights or coal crackers. Speed flights are perfect for tighter groupings as they have less surface area. How to choose the perfect dart tips You have a choice between a soft tip or a hardened steel tip. Tips lengths vary from 15 to 60mm. How to choose the perfect dart finishing Darts can be coated with paint or applied a 1-micron thick titanium finish.

The proper distance and height of a dartboard is crucial for the maximum fun and training effect. Darts are not just about design, but also many other important features, such as the correct weight of the darts.
The weight of darts is first differentiated between steel darts and soft darts electronic darts. This distinction has a marginal effect on the recommended number of darts grams. What weight should a dart really have in general?
Opinions may vary. The weight of the Soft Darts is lighter than the Steeldart. The main reason for this is the impact on the electronic board. If the darts are too heavy, they may damage the board. For this reason, we recommend that you play electronic darts maximum 19 grams.
Most E-Darters stay true to this weight and later make only minor adjustments through minor dart changes that have a minimal impact on weight and flight behavior. The weight of Steeldarts is generally higher than the electronic Dart. Many professionals prefer cheaper darts, and there is no shame in doing the same. Either way, there are excellent options on both ends of the price spectrum, so take your time to decide. The material used for the construction of the barrel should also play a role in your decision.
The most common materials used in the manufacture of dart barrels are brass, nickel, tungsten, or a combination of various metals. Unless you like the feel of a bigger dart, tungsten will be the choice for most. Weight is one of the most variable and personal factors to affect your performance.
As a general rule, heavier darts will fly straighter through the air. Experienced or advanced players better use heavier darts because they demand better precision. Inversely, lighter darts fly in a more parabolic trajectory which makes them the prime choice for beginners who rely less on accuracy. Either way, none of this is set in stone and professionals might prefer lighter darts just as amateurs might have a preference for the heavier kind.
The easiest way to decide what weight darts you should buy is to take a few minutes to play some games using various weights until you feel comfortable with your choice.
The most common dart weights are between 16 to 26 grams; however, modern rules allow darts to weigh up to 50 grams. Ideally, you should begin practicing with darts that weigh around 20 grams. These are the most common and will allow you to move up to higher weights or down to lighter ones.
If you habitually throw too high, you should probably use heavier darts and vice versa. As with weight, barrel length and shape is another personal choice. Darts come in all shapes and sizes from short torpedo style to long slim cylinders.
How big your hands are and how you hold a darts will affect the size of the barrel you choose. Generally the more fingers you use with your dart grip, the longer a barrel you will want. Unless you like to grip with your fingers resting on the tip.
Choosing a longer barrel will give you more space to grip the dart, while shorter barreled darts will limit your grip options. The shape of your dart plays a significant role in weight distribution, which is a factor in how your darts fly. The shape of your dart will affect whether the dart is balanced or more front heavy. Pro players generally use a slimmer barrel as it is easier to squeeze more of them in a tight space.
