I love this man's enthusiasm for the game, the players and his commentary style. I saw him in an exhibition once. He did a full tour of the crowd as part of his walk on. High fived everybody. Then he hit a 15 darter against someone who had won a raffle to play him. He hit - 4 straight tons, 101 finish - Bull, S1, Bull. Phenomenal! You can't beat a bit of Bully!
I played a guy one time He threw first I hit 180, 60 ,180. Concentrating only on my game I went up to have a go at my 81 chk out and the marker was cleaning the board. My opponent had just taken out 148 to beat me in 12 darts... Point is 15 darts is good but its not phenomenal.. Although the 2 bulls was nice.
@@RABIDJOCK 15 darts for the Professional player is the absolute bare minimum they EXPECT to get. I'd say most of them are seeking 11 - 13 darts matches as a regular leg.
@@jamieshannon9809 well 15 darts gets you a ball hair over 100 avg so it is very good if you are hitting it consistantly and a 100 avg will get you into the latter stages of most comps but on its own it not outstanding. Gary Anderson won a set on Sunday in the world final with 15, 17, and 21 which was about county level. Suppose that's why he got beat 😆
@@RABIDJOCK Of course, in most of the Players Championship games you'd expect an average of between 104 - 109 with the odd exception of above 112. It's difficult to maintain a high average like they do in the Premier League Darts in a first to 7 set match where you could end up playing 65 legs of darts. Most Professional players are looking for 2 Big Trebles per throw and a big set up shot to leave an "easy 2 darter".

Wayne: [says all the bad things about snatching on the throw] Dave Chisnall: Hold my isotonic drink!
Yes I got one in lockdown and live it. Set out to hit a 180 as had never done it, but have a couple of times now. Changed my grip and stance several times, but now settled.
@ciaran perry fair enough but I played for about 12 years in the late 70s in the laye 80s then left Scotland and stopped playing for 23 years.Started again in 2013 after my girls were up and was back to how I was playing within a short time..I get to that point and know I'm not going to keep up 3 hours a day practice as I used to. For me returning to darts was for the social aspect. I'm as happy marking games as playing them as long as I'm having a pint 😆
I’ve always considered Wayne Mardle to be an ex player that has got into commentary. It’s only when you actually sit quietly and listen to him and take on board what he’s saying that you truly appreciate his incredible knowledge of the game. I’ve certainly enjoyed these videos, and look forward to putting these methods into practice, to hopefully improve my game. Cheers Wayne 👍
I watched this last night and tonight I took it on board and tried throwing this way. I just scored 180, and that doesn't happen very often. Thanks Wayne!!!! :-)
Thanks, Wayne! Some of this helped a lot. The release is my real problem. I find the dart gets caught on a finger a lot and that pushes it into the 1 or 5. My scoring is like: 140, 22, 11, 100, 7, 26...
I watched a lot of "getting better" videos, but this one helps me the most. Especially the fact to follow a rhythm helped a lot. I got less pain in my shoulder and score a lot better. Thx wayne! 👍
This is exactly what I need to work on. I’m definitely a snatcher and my follow-through needs work. This is very helpful. Thank you Wayne! Also, thanks for your legendary commentary on Bully Boy’s 9 darter. It made me fall in love with the darts!
Brilliant. I told my friend I relate everything in life to golf. This definitely includes darts. Golf is all about Tempo. I told him to start throwing with the same pace on throws and he INSTANTLY improved dramatically. Anyone else out there that is just beginning... start with a slow tempo. It shows you everything mechanically that you can improve upon. Cheers from Minnesota!
Yeah, I've often thought the Dart throw is very similar to the Golf swing. You want the same thing happening every time. As you say, it's all about tempo, relaxed but firm, don't grip the Dart or Club too tight and a good follow through!
😂 That end! Great video, I've been a darts fan for years, but only recently started trying to play seriously, so the most basic tips and tutorials are much appreciated 😁
I've been throwing daily for over a year now, I've hit many 180s some decent checkouts but I'm so inconsistent and I believe the follow through or lack of is causing this ...great video from the legend himself 🎯
I'm trying to find the right stand and the pace in my throws, trying different grips, different throws. All that you said is true. Yesterday by coincidence felt that when I push/propel the dart forward is much more accurate than just lobbing it. Then found your video, which is the confirmation of my personal experience.
Thankyou, I've just changed my throw as my action was like a railway arch. Missed so many doubles because of it, judging the drop. Now it's more direct and shorter action, which is better, I need to do the follow through and I should be sorted 👍
Bobby George summed it up perfectly - “look where you’re throwing, and throw where you’re looking”. It’s simple. People have different throws and different actions 🤷🏻♂️ you can either throw a dart or you can’t. A player from years ago called Ceri Morgan had the weirdest throw of anyone ( footage of him on here ) but he still hit what he needed. Same with Co Stompe from the BDO days, his throw isn’t conventional by any means but he still hit doubles and trebles. No player throws the same as another 🤷🏻♂️ there isn’t a definitive, correct way to throw in my opinion. You find what’s right for you and you practice it again and again and again.
Ppl with a natural follow thru is a beautiful thing to watch. There are great players who have the worst throw ever but they are great players. But I agree with what your saying about the throw
Thanks for the tips. Been playing for 40 years. Got about 6 180s a 171 and a 141 checkout. But I'm all over the place. I'd love to have some 1 on 1 with a good player
Wayne, what a great video, I have been getting a sore calf when playing, and your spot on I'm not releasing properly, your commentary on sky is brilliant, it really paints a picture of how the players are doing in a match, more videos please, would love a video on helping find best set up. Thanks again
oh no, I have abbreviated follow through, but no one has ever explained my hand / fingers should be pointing at the target, I have never been able to stop it. I think this will really help. Thanks
Wayne great video. I smile everytime I see your videos partner. You hold the title of greatest walk on of all time. I forward your videos to my entire dart team.
rob here from downunder ,,,wayne luv everything about you mate,, love your game, techniques and tips,,i love darts so much my friend and especially your commentary on foxtel sports..keep going mate you are brillant,,thankyou rob from oz
Good advice. I do pretty well as a "looper" but I need to get bolder because when I actually do "propel" it often works....in the house! Darts seasons been cancelled so I've plenty time to practice 😄
Love you Wayne!!! Watched a few of your technique videos. For me - what I found improved my throw was that I wasn't bringing my throw back far enough to my body. I started doing this with a fluid follow through and it greatly helped. Commenting from the land of Darth Maple!!! :o)
I appreciate your time and instructions. I've caught myself swaying lately, where I'm moving forward I'll release. Bad habit. I've excelled at many sports. Being left eye dominant and throwing right handed is a battle for me and has made the game frustrating. I know plenty are fine with it. Not me.
I put my dart board up after few years not playing and watching this today is weird.. As while I was practicing i couldnt work out if I'm better looping the darts or following through as you recommended... Funny thing is look at your score when looping and exactly right when you say barney does it!! 😏😛
I think I do all those throws!! Yes, my right knee and arm aches! But! I’m improving!! I’m starting to see what I’m doing wrong when Darts are going wayward and can correct it, a bit. Good vid👍
Nice tutorial Wayne.. cheers. 😉👍 What about the aiming though??? In front of the eye (look down the barrel).. or.... look over the top of the dart - keeping both eyelines clear?? I'm personally looking down the barrel - using it like the sights of a gun - lining that up with the target then throwing. Sometimes, when I'm practicing, I look over the top of the dart and this does 'sometimes' work better than aiming down the barrel. But I feel this leads to dropping my elbow. This is more of a rhythm throw. Which is best in the long run? It's all very confusing 🙈
I aim down the barrel but adjust it with my right eye, right eye dominant, it looks wrong as in it seems your aiming elsewhere than the 20 with both eyes open but I get good results, many 100s for me?
dude i cant belive you hit the board while looking at the dart. pick a spot inside the treble. not just the treble but any discolouration or bit of white or whatever. your eyes do better focusing on one spot than an area. 'eyes on the prize' and we used to say. i don't know what you average but your aiming technique sounds bizarre
Great video Wayne, I've been a looper ever since I picked up a dart ( I don't play very often to add )I have good grouping but find it hard to hit the doubles, we've just received our new dart Board today so going to set it up and try some of your techniques you have shown 👍 With a few weeks in self isolation because of the covid 19 I might be on tour next year playing against MVG lol .
I try every time with the follow through but still my darts are all over the place, sometimes one out of the three will hit the target, practice practice practice
Listening to Wayne would put anyone in a good mood. He's a free positive energy.
I love this man's enthusiasm for the game, the players and his commentary style. I saw him in an exhibition once. He did a full tour of the crowd as part of his walk on. High fived everybody.

Darts wouldn't be the same without him

Dave Chisnall:
Hold my isotonic drink!
BINGO! Szkolenie psów. And and Aspinall!
The great Jocky Wilson the original snatcher between double vodkas..
🤣🤣🤣
Darts is a perfect game when in self isolation! Everyday practice
I practice every day from one month
Yes I got one in lockdown and live it. Set out to hit a 180 as had never done it, but have a couple of times now. Changed my grip and stance several times, but now settled.
I play darts for a team and haven't thrown a dart for 10 months. Whats the point. Tried the online stuff it was shit. Not what darts is all about.
@ciaran perry fair enough but I played for about 12 years in the late 70s in the laye 80s then left Scotland and stopped playing for 23 years.Started again in 2013 after my girls were up and was back to how I was playing within a short time..I get to that point and know I'm not going to keep up 3 hours a day practice as I used to.

Or when working from home and u can’t be bothered to do actual work 🤫
Wayne is a very natural teacher, excellent instruction, thanks!
I love how he just disproves everything he’s said by getting that 180
I've seen him a couple times do videos like this and he always does that lol. Typical pro darts player

Hits a 180. Madness. Best walk on ever. COME ON.
Wayne teaches you how to be runner up in every final.
haha yeah
Nah just reach the semis
Savage

Talk as much as you want Wayne, I love listening to what you have to say buddy 👍
Visual confirmation!!! Love that expression. Wonderful set of videos, very informative, easy to follow and comprehend.
What a talent man can play and teach, that's very rare!

"This shouldn't be happening......that's just madness!" 🤣 great video Wayne,cheers.
LOL at this popping up in my recommendation after Gary just called Wayne a muppet
Jockey Wilson was a snatcher and he’s a great!

Mr Mardle throwing better now than in his good old days 😁
Wayne great video. I smile everytime I see your videos partner. You hold the title of greatest walk on of all time. I forward your videos to my entire dart team.
Even when he tries to mess up he's better than me. This is depressing
Yeah, I loved the "this shouldn't be happening" ^^
That was going to be my remark. As he's showing you the wrong way to throw, he hits the target every time.
He was a professional player who made a living out of it tbf. Bound to be better than most.
Thanks again! Your explanation is very good to apply! Makes me work on small improvements over and over again.
rob here from downunder ,,,wayne luv everything about you mate,, love your game, techniques and tips,,i love darts so much my friend and especially your commentary on foxtel sports..keep going mate you are brillant,,thankyou rob from oz
Just got my first 180 sooo happy you have taught me allot !!!!!
Aaron O ' Cathain yea 1 more I am getting better
Fantastic advice! Improved my game with one video!
Good advice. I do pretty well as a "looper" but I need to get bolder because when I actually do "propel" it often works....in the house! Darts seasons been cancelled so I've plenty time to practice 😄
Best current commentator in darts Wayne always great insights
Cheers Wayne looks like you got the loop throw fairly spot on 🙈🙈🙈
Always great to watch! Thanks for posting
Love you Wayne!!! Watched a few of your technique videos. For me - what I found improved my throw was that I wasn't bringing my throw back far enough to my body. I started doing this with a fluid follow through and it greatly helped. Commenting from the land of Darth Maple!!! :o)
Need more darts videos, I've no dartboard at home 😞 missing the game badly.
wise words from a great player and the way it sounds also a coach.
Man, I watched your video and started getting 🎯 🎯 🎯
Thanks brah.
thanks wayne another great tutorial .
Just got my first board and set of darts... thanks for the vids you're a really competent and useful speaker
This guy is a gentleman met him in Ireland what man!
Wayne Is one of my favourite players
Great video. I'm not sure what I'm more afraid of - the virus or how excitable Wayne is going to be when the darts eventually gets going again.
My follow through is def need work on and this helps
I appreciate your time and instructions. I've caught myself swaying lately, where I'm moving forward I'll release. Bad habit. I've excelled at many sports. Being left eye dominant and throwing right handed is a battle for me and has made the game frustrating. I know plenty are fine with it. Not me.
'I do love a 5' 😂😂😂
This man does so much for the game
You said on the TV that it is best to put your opponent off in order to win a game, Wayne!
I put my dart board up after few years not playing and watching this today is weird.. As while I was practicing i couldnt work out if I'm better looping the darts or following through as you recommended... Funny thing is look at your score when looping and exactly right when you say barney does it!! 😏😛
Jocky snatched the hell out of it
Thanks Wayne I found this helpful. Been a fan since I was young, keep doing you.
More of these videos. They’re great
I think I do all those throws!!
Yes, my right knee and arm aches!
But! I’m improving!! I’m starting to see what I’m doing wrong when Darts are going wayward and can correct it, a bit. Good vid👍
Legend. Love him.
Cheers Wayne loved that!! So useful for amateur dart enthusiast like me Thankyou !
Came for the tips, stayed for the shirt.
Nobody taught Jocky all this, and he did alright
He did more than alright but he shouldn't have... A brilliant exeption to darts logic... I miss characters like him and Eric...
3:04 I wish my misses were like this
Self isolating bored out his skull. Let’s do another TH-cam video ✌️👍
Thanks Wayne. With all this extra time I’ve been practicing more even got the wife to throw a few.😀
Thank you for that WAYNE MARDLE
Wayne please do more videos now we are all self isolating. Can you do a video explaining when you release the dart?👍
Brilliant thank you. Helped me lots.
Brilliant, cheers Wayne 👍
"...he's only diminutive." 🤣
Started snatching at 15, and never really got rid of it. Just stated again, so, see how it goes.
Wayne can’t teach you to have bottle that’s for sure!!!!!!
Please do a video on dartitis. The causes and any advice for those of us with it
Great Vid Wayne, always a joy to watch you play, hopefully I can try your advise out more.
Everytime I follow through like how your “suppose” to my elbow hurts 😂
Yeah I just started playing and I do that exact move, and my shoulder kill's today.
The "snatch" looks basically like how Chizzy throws lol
I love how amazing you throw when you just not trying lol
PLEASE keep these coming..I feel that, daily wouldnt be enough...just sayin.
Excellent Wayne, keep them coming 👍
Good information.
👍 Words of wisdom
Thanks Wayne
Discuss about overcoming left eye dominant right handed issue
Wayne's the man!
Nice tutorial Wayne.. cheers. 😉👍
What about the aiming though???
In front of the eye (look down the barrel).. or.... look over the top of the dart - keeping both eyelines clear??
I'm personally looking down the barrel - using it like the sights of a gun - lining that up with the target then throwing.

It's all very confusing 🙈
I personally look at the dartboard where I'm aiming
yeah i have a flight for targeting ....
i cant even see my dart when i throw it cuz i throw from my shoulder
I aim down the barrel but adjust it with my right eye, right eye dominant, it looks wrong as in it seems your aiming elsewhere than the 20 with both eyes open but I get good results, many 100s for me?
dude i cant belive you hit the board while looking at the dart. pick a spot inside the treble. not just the treble but any discolouration or bit of white or whatever. your eyes do better focusing on one spot than an area. 'eyes on the prize' and we used to say. i don't know what you average but your aiming technique sounds bizarre
Cheers Wayne. Good advice
Spot on
Thanks Wayne, i never do Q school, but love to get average 50
I enjoyed reading the comments than watching the video.. Lolz. Ok. fine i'm going to thumbs this up give you a penny. Lolz
Great video Wayne, I've been a looper ever since I picked up a dart ( I don't play very often to add )I have good grouping but find it hard to hit the doubles, we've just received our new dart Board today so going to set it up and try some of your techniques you have shown 👍
With a few weeks in self isolation because of the covid 19 I might be on tour next year playing against MVG lol .
Great advice thanks Wayne 👍
Hi Wayne, appreciate if you can do a video on the issue of wrist flicking and how to stop it. Thank you in advance!
I try every time with the follow through but still my darts are all over the place, sometimes one out of the three will hit the target, practice practice practice
thanks for the tips Wayne mate....
Amazing tips
