Great series. You should do a special each series to highlight the venues that cared enough to reach out to you about things they fixed and maybe show updated pictures or something.
Really surprising in a place like that, that they would have darts as terrible as those. Agree with Andy - even if it was a £10 deposit for a set of tungsten, I'd be happy with that - but with 32 boards, that would work out to be very expensive - I'm sure Mission could sort something out with em though! Ha Also agree with Andy on the scoring options, or lack of em. The whiteboard is fair enough but the pens didn't work. At least have reversible boards, one side chalk the other side wipeable. Either that or a phone/tablet holder so I can use my phone with a dart app. Lads! Another cracking series. Absolutely love them and I seriously hope it continues for a very long time. Would having a guest "rater" on some episodes be something you would consider for next season? You could have a former/current pro, a dart channel TH-camr, or even one of your viewers (cough, cough, wink wink) 😂 come along and help be a middleman and get an honest opinion from the average Joe who the place is targeted at. As for ratings, maybe introduce a 10+ where you want to give it an 11, but can't. Maybe for throw perception, you both can have a game of 301 or 501. Maybe get Matt some trendier shorts! 😂 Keep going though chaps, love ya both equally and this is easily one of the best darts channels on TH-cam!
Harsh Andy does have a logical point, this is the one venue I agree the scores 100%!,.. but for my money and time, just a game or a tournament, I’d have to say all in all (ambiance included) the ChUrch Wicketts would be my personal Venue of choice. Cheers to you both! I look foreward to every single episode of Rate My Oche!!🤙🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Totally Agree with comments , also this series is helping the Venues become Better . I know Brunel View got marked down on Areas . However they have all been amended / Addressed. They've even got a Darts shop there now, offering Try before you Buy And as for an out and out Darts Venue , Brunel View / Legends Lounge got to be in the top 10 .
I’m really shocked by the house darts at such an incredible venue. Heading there this weekend 09/11/24 for the first time. Looking forward to it after seeing this review!
Fantastic series chaps, looking forward to Series 3. The boards and House Darts is a tricky couple of categories. Wearing my Sales hat.....venues stock up on entry level tungstens (maybe trade price of £20 each, put a £30 per set deposit on them). Bit like a beer festival....buy a glass, keep it at the end of the night....or hand it back and get your money back😀
Congrats on series 2 - I don't know whats happened to me but I actually agreed with all of Harsh Andys scores today - Based on consistancy and his criteria the scoreboard should indeed only get a 2 as it wasn't usable. Also darts board itself should be 5 to match over venues (Or bump the other venues scores higher to be more positive)
I've played there. The stage area boards are used as practice boards. Scoring tablets are on every board in play during tournament's. By far the best "purpose built" venue outside the pdc pro tour set up. Plenty of tables and seating space for 100's of people. Space between oche and tables is huge. 10/10 all day long !
7 for the board was too high. A 4 would be accurate. Again I can’t believe a venue like this doesn’t charge you for playing darts. Also make the videos longer as TH-cam promotes videos based on watch time. Hit me up for more advice.
Pro tip: to clean a whiteboard spray it with an aerosol insect repellent before wiping off with a dry cloth. Perfect results even if permanent markers have been used.
Concept for Series 3, at each venue you play a quick 501 against each other and keep a record of the results, would be great to see you guys have a proper chuck/game at the venues.
that complex is ridiculous in a great way. the videos and assessments have gotten better. well done chaps. now come to the US and see some of the horrid dumps that we have to play league darts. "County" is the big step up in quality. you will be amazed.
Deposit for the barrels and points then stock up on stems and flights for people to buy. Venue purchases £20/30 tungsten darts £30 to hire the darts (barrel and points) which you get back when you return the darts. Customer buys the stems and flights which the venue have in stock. Cost them the customers no more than £4 in total
Great venue. I would have said a 4 for the board and agree with Andy for a 2 for the whiteboard. Only a couple of things and by looks of it would be a perfect venue
I have to disagree with the score board marking score. There is nothing wrong with the white boards they are cleaner than chalk and it helps people count not using electric score boards . Bradmoor also uses tablets for it’s tournaments but they are taken down after each event to prevent damage.
looks a great place Im not knocking it.... but 4/10 for scoreboards? those whiteboards look like they were dragged from a skip... I wouldnt give it any score... the pens dont work. It would annoy the hell out of me that they have all those boards and scoring is waaay below sub par. Also no big screen for matchday in a place like that., and that size, ... but you gave it a 10?? seriously? As for facilities.... how does a golf practice machine have anything to do with parking, toilets, access etc (which you never mentioned). Im not knocking the place per say, but ypur inconsistencies regarding ranking. As for myself.... wayyy too much echo
Production level 11/10
I'm sure there's numbers between 5 and 7
and 2 and 4?
Great series. And great production and editing from your camera guy, he's an unspoken hero.
1 of the best series to watch this!
Thanks, a couple of bonus episodes coming up then the new series will be Jan 2025
my local this place, been waiting for ages for this one! such a good watch!
Great series. You should do a special each series to highlight the venues that cared enough to reach out to you about things they fixed and maybe show updated pictures or something.
My local. So lucky to have such an amazing facility on my doorstep.

Andy gives you a big thumbs up !
Totally Agree with comments , also this series is helping the Venues become Better .
I know Brunel View got marked down on Areas .
However they have all been amended / Addressed.
They've even got a Darts shop there now, offering Try before you Buy
And as for an out and out Darts Venue , Brunel View / Legends Lounge got to be in the top 10 .
This is the type of place that should be hosting UK open qualifiers instead of Riley's, superb venue
Hard to disagree with harsh Andy on the scoreboard side of things…
I’m really shocked by the house darts at such an incredible venue.
Heading there this weekend 09/11/24 for the first time. Looking forward to it after seeing this review!
Make sure you take your own......lol

Thanks, a couple of bonus episodes coming up then the new series will be Jan 2025 and great idea that.......or a Rate my Oche Tungsten dart.....
Can't be the only person who read 'Broadmore' and expected a very spicy episode
lol that would be fun..
I’m defiantly going to this soon, this venue looks perfect for free!

but no big screen for tournaments? so how is it the best? the place is huge.... how can anyone see the score?

My favourite series! Hope for series 3!

Amazing Venue
Amazing Series
End of series 2 😢 enjoyed this series 👍🏻 I liked that venue although I agree with harsh Andy on the board and scoreboard score
Thanks, a couple of bonus episodes coming up then the new series will be Jan 2025
Have to agree on the house darts score lads! Can’t wait for Series 3!

Andy is right on the score board.
Nice venue!!
Are you doing a series three 🙏🙏🙏this series Is the best 👍
Thanks, a couple of bonus episodes coming up then the new series will be Jan 2025
6, meet in the middle 👌🏼
Great venue. I would have said a 4 for the board and agree with Andy for a 2 for the whiteboard. Only a couple of things and by looks of it would be a perfect venue
if harsh Andy is overly harsh to encourage comments and engagement that’s absolute genius marketing lol
5 because the boards to close for chalking also
This wasn’t recorded lately re shorts! 😀🎯🎯
That’s outfit is brutal
😅😅
its not the middle of aylesbury its on the outskirts in Haddenham
Should have tested the pen to see if you could write 3 😉
👌🎯🏆👍
I agree 5 for the board
mate did andy really use Pythagoras to work out the distance to the oche?
err....doubtful
You think they are going to try and hold the British open qualifiers for the WDF?
I have to disagree with the score board marking score. There is nothing wrong with the white boards they are cleaner than chalk and it helps people count not using electric score boards . Bradmoor also uses tablets for it’s tournaments but they are taken down after each event to prevent damage.
Board definitely a 5,its half way through its life if every treble used.
white board is a 1 for me
Bullseye Reykjavik, Iceland
Terracotta shorts
😅
Was a 5 all day
Flight club liverpool !!!
Unfortunately we cant review a flight club.
Need to have separate scores and an average between them.
always wonder does harsh Andy own / co own mission darts? Not related to his harshness just curious lol
No, Andy is Brand Manager and Ambassador for Mission
I agree with Edgar
Such a shame that the probably two easist things to rectify let it down
5 on the board. Average. Definitely 2 on board. Only 1 bad way to score. Start doing half points next season.
5
7
Board is a 5
6
a 2 thats bad
looks a great place Im not knocking it.... but 4/10 for scoreboards? those whiteboards look like they were dragged from a skip... I wouldnt give it any score... the pens dont work. It would annoy the hell out of me that they have all those boards and scoring is waaay below sub par.

As for facilities.... how does a golf practice machine have anything to do with parking, toilets, access etc (which you never mentioned). Im not knocking the place per say, but ypur inconsistencies regarding ranking.
As for myself.... wayyy too much echo
you agree with Harsh Andy then..
6 lol
