Your techniques have given me the tools to become the best player I can be. Joe Everett (aka: dart face) New York City Certainly from reading the additional information in George's book (a must for all dart players) I now understand and feel when my stroke is good and bad and also I'm in a position where I am able to correct it if the first dart thrown is poor. Antony Sharrett (aka: Tanman) Harrogate, England I know it's working for me because now what feels like a bad night would have been considered a great night 6 months ago. Mark Kelly (aka: Drac0) Australia I have never felt more controlled and focused with my darts. The drills, the reading material, all of it are a huge help. Greg Kanes (aka: P-man) S. Africa The way George writes makes you wanna read it. Davin Burgess, (aka: davin) Nashville, Tennessee, U.S.A.

'Extremely funny' - Guardian Booze, Bullseyes and (more) Booze Humanity has come a long way in the 500,000 years since Neanderthal man first started chucking spears around. Or has it? In his blisteringly funny new book, former professional player Wayne Mardle, whose crowd-pleasing antics were even more lively off stage than they were on, blows the lid off one of the UK's biggest televised sports. Known in darts circles as Hawaii 501 on account of his colourful Hawaiian shirts (yours for just forty-five quid - he's got a garage full of them) Mardle remains one of the planet's most recognisable players, having performed on the world stage during a professional career that saw him play all the greats and, quite frankly, lose to most of them. In this witty (frequently), honest (largely), and poignant (twice) guide to life both on and off the oche, Mardle delivers world-class advice - such as why you shouldn't go on a two-day Vegas booze bender before a major PDC final, or how to avoid going live on European TV with a string of expletives so outrageous that clips are still replayed, years later, on Belgian telly. Some are lessons Mardle learned the hard way; others, like why it's best to avoid being sued by a well-known biscuit manufacturer, are gleaned from green-room gossip spanning decades.

This book has been compiled to provide details of tournament winners and runners up of USA steel tip tournaments. Every effort has been used to identify and correctly record winners and runners up of tournaments. In some cases there will be results “missing”. If these can be identified they will be included in a future edition. There maybe errors with names being mispelt and ladies surnames may have changed. Where possible, hosting organisation and the year that the tournament was first held will be listed. Other facts about the tournament will be listed if available. Besides tournament results, there are two chapters that were authored by Chuck Hudson. One chapter is on the founding of the United States Sports Darts Alliance (USSDA) and the other is Sandy Hudson a professional player. Both of these chapters are an interesting read and provides a snapshot of darts in the US. This book provides the reader and dart enthuiast information on other published books and magazines, links to web sites of dart manufacturers, Professional Bodies and Organisations, dart stores, and Country Darts Organisations. This is not a comprehensive list but begins the work of collating details into one place. Instead of being scattered around the World Wide Web across many sites and publications. Many dart tournaments in 2020 will be cancelled due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

The Second Edition of PDC Darts covers the same details as the original book with current details of tournament winners and runners up on the PDC (Professional Darts Corporation) Tour. Besides the tournament results, analysis of the tournament history is provided. Provides details of players that have thrown the perfect leg, the highest average achieved during the history of the tournament, how many times a player has appeared in the final, and how many times a player has won the tournament. Majority of tournaments were cancelled due to the Coronavirus Pandemic in 2020. To keep the tour viable, there were three Home Tour Championships staged until players could attend events in person. The book is to provide the reader and dart enthusiast more information on publications, links to web sites of dart manufacturers, County Darts Organisations, Professional Bodies and Organisations, dart stores, and Country Darts Organisations. This is not a comprehensive list but it begins the work of collating details of darts into one place instead of being scattered around the World Wide Web across many sites and publications. Disclaimer: Links to dart stores is for informational purposes. I have not been contacted by any of the stores to advertise. When I come across a dart store and the link is correct, I have included in list for dart enthusiasts. I hope you enjoy the book.
