A Guide To Soft Tip Darts

So, what are soft tip darts and where do you use them? You certainly wouldn't use them in leagues in this country, in the United Kingdom, but the chances are if you're playing leagues in America or Japan, you'll need to use soft tip darts because they are used on the electronic darts game which we've talked about in another film. To look at the actual dart itself, it bears very little difference, in fact, from an ordinary steel tip dart. I'll hold the two up together.

Signature darts from the top professionals made by Unicorn and other companies all have soft tip versions. This is a Terry Jenkins dart, very smooth and there is a soft nylon point. This is a Bob Anderson dart but with a steel tip.

Now, of course, you couldn't use this steel tip for an electronic darts machine because there'd be smoking sparks everywhere. So, you'd only use the soft tip dart. It's a very user-friendly thing and especially for small children playing darts, then you're probably happier to see them playing soft tips rather than steel.

As they get older, the more experience in the game, then the youngsters will come to play the steel tip game. In order to play soft tip darts well, you're going to need to do just as much practice as you would to play steel tip darts. Well, there's absolutely no difference in the game except for the points of the darts.
