Half size trebles and doubles great for practicing.

Standard Clock Board

FULL USE OF DOUBLE AND TREBLE RINGS FOR NOVICE PLAYERS.  STANDARD DOUBLE AND TREBLE RINGS FOR ADVANCED PLAYERS. CHAMPIONS CHOICE DOUBLE AND TREBLE RINGS FOR EXPERT PLAYERS.

A very rare board made with a quad inner ring! Score up to 240 points on a throw.

This is the classic Fives dart board. The version with standard width doubles and trebles is usually known as the Ipswich Fives board or the Wide fives board to distinguish it from it's narrower cousin from the East of London. The layout differs considerably to the standard dart board layout that you may be used to. 

One game played on the board was 51-by-Fives, which has Dartboard.

The game is fairly simple; the winner is the player to reach exactly 51 points first, starting from zero. BUT, the actual score thrown is divided by 5 to get the scoring amount. In other words, a thrown score of 20, divided by 5, would actually score 4 points on the chalkboard.

Play proceeds like this until 51 is reached. Like '01 games, it is possible to bust.. if you have a score of 50, for instance, and throw 20 points, your new score would be 54... a bust. Go back to 50 next turn!

When 51-by-Fives is played on an English Clock face Board, all 3 darts must score each turn, or none may count. This keeps someone from throwing-away the last dart to avoid a bust. Also, all 3 darts thrown must add up to a number divisible by 5, or none count that turn.

Same as the Wide Fives but half size doubles and trebles

Regional Board E. London

e Yorkshire Dartboard is a forerunner of the now standard, London dartboard or as others may call it the ‘Clock’ dartboard, however, this dartboard has no treble bed or outer bullseye. The bullseye still scores 50 and is smaller than a standard bullseye on a standard dartboard.By the late 1920s the trebles ‘standard dartboard’ was introduced and remains the most popular dartboard in the world today. However, the ‘standard’ dartboard was not an overnight success in the UK. Initially, it had to compete with other existing target boards played across the United Kingdom. These have come to be known as ‘regional dartboards’ and were usually named after their region of origin of the where the dartboard was first made. For example, the Yorkshire Doubles board, Kent Doubles, the London Fives and the Manchester Log-end Board.The Yorkshire board with has a ‘standard’ numbering system without trebles, The Manchester ‘Log-end’, The London 'East End' (Narrow Fives) and Ipswich (Wide Fives) Dartboards have a different numbering system. All these boards are still available and still played on in the UK (c 2018). However, they still remain regional and are played on less than the standard dartboard.

The height and throwing distances for the Yorkshire dartboard differs than that of a standard dartboard.The Yorkshire dartboard is hung so that the centre is 5ft 6ins (1.676m) from ground level, the throwing line or 'oche' is 7ft 2ins (2.184m) from the dartboard face at ground level. The diagonal distance from the centre of the bull to the throwing line at floor level is 9ft (2.743m).

 Irish Black and Lincolnshire Dartboards.The Irish Black Dartboard is the same as the Yorkshire Dartboard, however, unlike the Yorkshire Dartboard, the playing surface is totally black not the standard Black, Red, Green, and Natural as seen on the Yorkshire Dartboard. However, the rules remain the same. The Lincolnshire Dartboard again looks the same as the Irish Black but it is wider 15 inches diameter to double outer rim. The Yorkshire and Irish Black are both 13 ¼ inches.It is also worth noting that the only other area where a doubles board is traditionally strong is Kent, and it was taken to the county by the Yorkshire miners who went to the Kent coalfield.Illustrations of both the Irish Black and the Lincolnshire dartboard are also shown here. Both boards have been made in the past from soft wood and sisal. The traditional jet-black dye used for the wooden construction was carried over to the sisal boards. Black dye was used so the wire dividers could easily be seen.In the 1970s the Yorkshire dartboard featured in the first series of ‘Indoor league’ before it was replaced to the now familiar London ‘Clock’ board featuring the treble ring.

A cut log end with a standard clockface. Usually made of elm that would have to be soaked in heal the dart wounds.

The Winmau Casino 301 Dartboard is no longer made.

The Casino 301 dartboard is basically a standard dartboard. i.e. the numbers and segments are the same so the board can be used as a standard dartboard for other games. You could, of course, convert your own standard dartboard into a casino dartboard.

1. Games are not played on the white face of the cards. (Outside the double ring). This is only distinguishes what card and suit red and black is. This is, red sectors are always Hearts or Diamonds and the Black sectors are always Spades or Clubs.
2. Player Closest to the bull may choose to throw first or last.
3. Players decide which skill level to play before every game. In some cases there is only one level. Players may also change betting stakes or winning levels prior to any game.
     - HALF DECK: Games are only played on the inner singles & their trebles and also the outer singles of the cards 3 and 5 and their doubles.
     - FULL DECK: Includes entire board (Inner & Outer singles, trebles and double rings). 
4. Use score boards at all times to avoid disputes!

This bristle board is a real rarity - the cream-colored rings should help to focus the eye on the doubles and triples on the otherwise black board (except for the bright red bullseye).

Although it says Unicorn and PDC, the board was made by WINMAU (Winmau protected the term "Blade"). 

You are also still practising all the vital skills you need to play better darts on the Snooker Board. It is not a "novelty" board! You can improve your accuracy by having to manoeuvre around the board, landing the dart on one of the red "balls" and then onto one of the coloured "balls", just like in snooker.The Snooker Board can also help with your muscle memory. The building up of muscle memory is vital to succeed in darts especially when you are under pressure and need a vital double! The "balls" are placed in the exact location of some of the key numbers on the board. The black ball is in the double top position and the pink is the bulls-eye for example.The Snooker Board is a fantastic example of making darts training fun with the added benefit of practising numerous vital darts skills that will make you a better player ! 

It might say “Kung-Fu” in the corner, but Asian World of Martial Arts knew damn well who they were selling to in 1982. The traditional dragon design still adorned the opposite side of this new panel, which featured silhouettes of common retail ninja suits, canon “Ninja-To” swords, manji-sais and yes — NINJA THROWING STARS! (And all of these items were available from AWMA, too…)

This had to be one of if not the most ubiquitous items of the 80s craze era. Nerdy teens had them in their bedrooms, every dojo had one on some wall. Luckily for the modern collector, so many were made for so long, they’re relatively easy to find even now. 

Holes 1 & 4 are par 5’s Holes 5 & 9 are par 3’s the rest are par 4’s Each hole is divided into sections. Each section has to be hit in order before you can proceed to the next section. So, on hole 1, you have to hit the 1st dark green section, then the next green section, before you can shoot at the green. On the par 4’s, you only have to hit the one dark green section before you shoot at the green (the dark green sections are the fairways). Each dart you throw counts as a stroke. On the par 3’s, there is no fairway so your first shot will be aimed at the green.Once you start aiming at the greens, here’s how it works. If you hit the red dot on the green then you holed the shot and are done with that hole. If you hit the green, you then have to hit the bull to sink your putt. The bull is divided up into three sections. This is to help handicap the game. So if you have an ‘A’ player throwing against a ‘C’ player, the ‘A’ player would have to hit the center red bull to make the putt where the ‘C’ player could hit any of the three rings to sink the putt.Now lets talk about the sand and water. These only come into play when you are shooting at the green, if you accidentally hit one while shooting at the fairway you just ignore it. Also, let’s say your shooting at the green on hole 6 and land in the water surrounding 5, you do not worry about it. It just counts as a missed dart, no penalty. Here’s how the rules work:Pond: You add one stroke to your throw. So if on hole 5 your first dart lands in the water, you would add one to your score so your second dart would be your 3rd stroke for that hole. Sand: If you land in the sand, you are required to back up 12 inches from the dart line and will continue to throw at the green. You do not have to back up another 12 inches should you land in the sand again. Now, once you have put the ball on the green, you move back up to the line to shoot your putt (bull). If, while standing 12 inches back, you put a shot in the water, you can then move back up to the line to shoot at the green.

Just like the Widdy board but made of coiled foam and round.

This board is made from real cork!

Old Baseball Game From The 1960's

Us Americans got to tinker with everything.  Here is our fix to the unique and beautiful straw  Belgian board.

This board which I bought from a guy who makes them in Belgium is made from raw compressed straw grass. It has metal dividers and is hand painted. It plays exceptionally well.

Personally I can't stand soft tip. Someone please explain to me why you would pay to throw darts... is the math that hard??? But... need to have one for the museum. LOL

Usually double sided and made of basswood.

The Grimsby Dartboard is unique in a few ways. Firstly, it has 28 scoring segments a bull and a doubles ring. In addition and external to the main scoring area are four sets of dual rings situated at the north, east, south, west pole position.

The rules for this board I have been unable to find, however, it is likely the dual ring may have been used to start and finish a game. i.e. hit one of the target areas to start and or finish. The rings, of course, could have been used for other dart games and these could have been used as a forerunner of the game loop / loopy (see standard dartboard games). 

The board was made c 1880 and there is photo evidence showing the board in 1890. The board would have been made from elm and soaked to make the board into a playable condition.

1-      Unlike the other games, you are allowed to use only one dart per turn. To start the game, each player throws a dart. Player that manages to strike the area closest to Bullseye becomes a breaker.

2-      A breaker has to hit a number from 1-15 these are called red balls and are worth one point.

3-      Once a player manages to strike a red ball, he is then allowed to target a colored digit, but before shooting, he has to specify which ball he is targeting.

4-      If a player manages to succeed in targeting their specified number, they then have to aim for the red balls and the colored balls once again.

5-       A player can keep shooting until he misses his target, i.e. 1-15 number or a specific colored number.

6-      Failure to strike the target figure will result in, a penalty of four points or face value of a colored ball.

7-      Each time a red ball is hit, it is removed from the board. However, striking any digit besides the one specified will result in no number being removed from the board.

8-      Once all the red balls have been stricken and removed, each player has to target colored balls in specific orders.

9-      Players will get penalized each time they hit numbers in the wrong order or if their dart ends up falling off from the board.

10-  If a player manages to strike the outer ring area, it will be considered a miss, and no penalty will be given.

In snooker, each ball provides a different score. The same scoring system is used in the dart version as well. Each number represents a different ball and has different points associated with it. Let’s take a look below: –

1-         Numbers 1-15 are regarded as red balls, and each one is worth one point.

2-         The number 16 represents a yellow ball and is worth two points.

3-         The number 17 represents a green ball and is worth three points.

4-         The number 18 represents a brown ball and is worth four points.

5-         Number 19 represents a blue ball and is worth five points.

6-         Number 20 represents a pink ball and is worth six points.

7-         The bullseye target represents a black ball and is worth seven points.

Here is an example of the gameplay. A player first lands a hit on number 15 this earns him one point. Next, he declares that he will target the yellow ball, i.e. number 16 this wins him two points. He once again manages to strike red ball this earns him another one score, after which he aims for number 17 but ends up striking number 18 this will result in a four-point penalty. As a result, his score will be zero, and the next player will take his turn. If he had landed on 19 or 20 number, the penalty would have been about five or six points.

Here is a suggestion when a player plays a game for a long time, they become aware of their weakness and strengths. So, instead of targeting high scoring number or random numbers you should target figures that you are used to hitting. This will increase your chance of winning. Always remain calm, remember that frustration and Impatience will end up costing you the game. In comparison to the original game of snooker the darts version is much faster and ends quickly. So, if you are looking for a fun and exciting game to play with a group of people then this game is your best choice.
