Thanks, I just picked up throwing darts as a hobby in my spare time in college, I sometimes play with my room mate, we usually go to a dart cafe that has electronic boards. It kills me every time I hit double twenty twice in a turn only to have the next turn missing it completely. This will no doubt help me a lot, thanks for this informative but simple video.

Eye dominance might be useful to mention. When I shoot archery, I had to learn how to shoot left handed because I'm left eye dominant. I'm right handed with everything else, including darts. When I line up at the oche, I line up my dominant eye with the target, which means I'm forced to throw at an angle (across my body). If I line up straight with my right eye aimed at the target, my darts always go left of the target. Maybe you could cover this in another video.

It's actually very helpful if it "clicks" for you. The best grip is one that keeps the dart pointed at the target without any effort. The best place to stand is the place where a comfortable throw sends it right toward your target. You don't want to ever drop your elbow when you throw. These are pretty much the three keys to darts, but each one of them is unique to the individual. If you have to cock your wrist in a weird way you're probably going to twist the dart out of line when you throw, and the dart will wobble or twist in the air and the tip won't hit anywhere near where you are aiming. So however you hold the dart, it should be very easy to hold it straight. This is very often the way you hold a dart the first time you pick it up. People often stand in a spot that makes them throw across the board rather than straight at it. This makes it much harder to consistently hit the target. One neat trick I saw to find where you should stand is to mark a line on the floor directly under the bull's-eye, then place a board (2x4 or something) and Mark another line directly under the bull's-eye on that board. Line up at the board, and if you are standing in the right spot to aim at the bull the two lines will line up. Adjust your position until they do, and you've found where you should stand. If you are right handed, this is probably left of center, like the video says. Lastly, "push the dart at the target" is an excellent basic description of how to throw correctly. You don't want a lot of motion when you throw. You don't want to swing your elbow around or wind up or anything like that. You just want your forearm to move with just a little bit of support from your shoulder. The throw is almost all tricep. "Push at the target" accomplishes this.

If you're good at golf. Use the same fundamentals and setups you do as if you were to lineup your shot. Stand far back from the board and square your shoulders. That'll give you the correct positioning for your aim instantly. Then just walk up to the board while square like he is saying... and have your arm pointing at the tipple 20.

Uuh? Where you point if you put your arm "straight out" depends on the angle at which you stand at the oche, not only on where you stand. The shortest distance to the board is where your shoulder and your hand is at the center line. Plain geometry, actually.

I know, but you've got to admit the skill nowadays is way better then before. Bob Anderson is indeed a legend, but that doesn't mean his theory is right. I don't believe there is a perfect way to throw, every style is effective in it's own way. And btw: Wes Newton was just a ''bad'' example. Here's maybe a better one: Jocky Wilson. Jocky Wilson had also a weird style and that's absolutely a legend too.
@YesTimoHeeftEenAcc

That's my point it's that the concept of this video doesn't make sense. People would just follow this ''rules'' because Bob says so. (which makes sense But you've got to admit that a world titel in 2013 is alot harder then it was back in the old days. And maybe if Wes was there in 1973 ( he wasn't born yet though ) then he would take surely some titels.) It's just my opinion and I love to watch old video's of darts, it's just that you can't compare a classic like Bob with someone from today
