Thursday Darts, Week 1 (Summer Season 2011)

Final Score: Da Geeks 2, Bud Guys 5. Don, Ernie and Mark showed up with Robert who filled in on game 6 for Don. Chuck was also there but he didn't throw as he has a sore right arm/shoulder and his doctor told him to stop what he was doing to let it heal. Don thinks his activity for his arm is not related to darts but something else and that's all I will say about that as I want to keep this blog PG-13.


I had one of my best games in my singles match against Don. They were close and it took us 3 games to figure out the winner. The last game I had 18's on him and needed 2 bulls to win, but Don was hitting the bulls and was up in points. He needed one 18 and I needed 2 bulls and just 18 more points to win. I hit a trip 18 for 54, second missed the bull, and the third hit the center red of the board to seal the win for me. Don commented that that was the best match we ever shot together. It was fun and even though my arm was sore from throwing Tuesday, I prevailed.


Rodman was a little rusty but as the night wore on he got better.


Marv is still using his bar darts and had stiff competition and was a little rusty also.


The Honor Roll had Rodman with a 3x2. Don had a 3x2 and Mark had a 4x3 and a 3x2.

Tuesday Darts, Week 1 (Summer Season 2011)

Final Score: Geek & Son 1, Higgs Boson 6. Mark and Kyle showed up early at the Dolphin Lounge. We started early but stayed late as we took long smoke breaks. Here is the other team:
The Point Mongering Whores.
Kyle is on the left, Mark, the better player and biggest whore is on the right.
As the caption on the picture shows, these two are the worst of the PMW's I have ever seen. Tip to the other teams, CLOSE! If they take a number they capitalize on it to no end! Greg and I figured it out after we both shot our singles and it worked. Also, their doubling is not consistant.


I shot OK, except I could not hit a friggin' double to save my life. I was on at bulls, to include me winning all but one of the corks. I lost because I couldn't double and I had a lead most of the game, except for cricket.


Greg on the other hand figured out where the double 20 was located and that was a big help. He shot very good for being nervous his first night and I am proud of him.


The Honor roll had me with a Ton-01 and Greg had a High On of a Ton. Mark had a 3x2.

Practice Day With My New Tuesday Night Teammate

Today I went to the Dolphin Lounge and shot a few games with my new partner, Greg. The new name is Geek & Son.


Greg shoots very well!! He used the Force as today is Star Wars Day, May the Fourth, and  shot pretty consistant. I told him a few things about what I would do to improve his throw and he picked up on it right away. I know that with a little more practice he will beat me consistently so I need to do the same.


We played 6 games, 501, cricket, 301, and then 3 more cricket games. Greg won one cricket game.


He knows he needs to brush up on his math, but he is definitely into the league play, and playing with his dad which warms me.
