Session : Reducing Wobble

As I throw the dart I have an issue that I thought was minor, after
a bit of research I found out that it is not minor and is a frequent issue
for people new to darts. I am talking about Wobble.

"The dart wobbling in flight. This is usually caused by the dart being thrown 
at too much of an angle to the path of flight. The dart flights attempt to correct, 
and this causes the wobbling motion."
(W.J.Rayment, 2013)


To correct the problem in my throw I am going to look at the curve in which
I throw the dart again. I have had a session working on it and getting the
correct flight path and didn't have any wobble. I need to find that
flight again and get back to it, to avoid wobble in the throw.




For the session I will concentrate on finding the correct flight and use
blocked training method to achieve this.

By using the advice that Rayment talks about in his article, I changed the
flight path for my dart throw. I was forcing the dart to hard at the dartboard
and giving it enough air, this meant that my throw was increasingly 
inaccurate.
