KEY CONCEPTS
Target Zones (T20, T19, Bullseye) and Their Purpose
Purpose: Understand high-value scoring areas and when to use them strategically.
Teaching Breakdown:
T20 (Triple 20)
Highest single scoring shot: 60 points.
Primary target for maximizing scoring potential.
Used heavily in early legs to build strong scores fast.
T19 (Triple 19)
Alternate high scorer: 57 points.
Used as a backup when T20 is blocked or during specific checkouts.
T18 (Triple 18)
Alternate high scorer: 57 points.
Used as a backup when T20 is blocked or during specific checkouts.
T17 (Triple 17)
Alternate high scorer: 57 points.
Used as a backup when T20 is blocked or during specific checkouts.
Bullseye (25 & 50)
Inner Bull: 50 points (central, high-pressure target).
Outer Bull: 25 points (useful for setup shots).
Often used for big finishes or when forced by score position.
Strategic Understanding:
Why T20 First? Most efficient points-per-dart with easiest visual alignment.
When to Switch to T19?
When T20 bed is blocked by previous darts or you’re on a checkout path requiring 19s.
Bullseye in Competition: High risk but game-changing under pressure; requires refined muscle memory.
