THE ULTIMATE OXYMORON

Post by SUPERTRAVIS »

Any person that knows me and has seen me have a full on temper tantrum over my performance in a blind-draw or even in a simple practice session will surely read this and scratch their heads. Darts can be the absolute most frustrating thing in the entire world sometimes and will make you feel like a seasoned pro one second and like a complete bumbling idiot the next. Somewhere in the ridiculousness of it all though will not allow me to settle for anything less than three perfectly thrown darts. So, no matter what, I get them out of the board and return four steps out to throw them again. And that is the key. Throw 'em again, and again, and again. and when you think you are done, you throw 'em again. Wins and improvement will come soon enough, but the peace I find in myself when I'm at the oche to throw is far more rewarding than any of the accolades out there. That's why I do this. Throw em again.
