maverick1200 2,828 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I hate the council darts. Like @plymouthranger said, how can you practice all that time and get an average of 40. I play once a year and get an average of of 30. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven't really though. Go to Argos, spend £30 and.... anyone can be playing darts. Practice lots, get good, and you could be the next top player. The best rise to the top, and geography or money doesn't change that. With the premier league the biggest and best clubs in other countries can't compete financially with EPL minnows.

Some of the bdo or most even can't afford to practice 8 hours a day, I'm with you here slightly but sky 100% have made an elite section with there money, and can hand pick any talent they want from the bdo so they kinda have Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything to do with the money will contribute to you becoming a better player, less stress, better living conditions and so on. Nobody is saying if your the next MVG your not going to make it, but if sky spot you then you'll make it alot faster than you would without there money.
