<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=910243414-02092013>But
one thing I forgot to mention - if you are using the 80 or the 120 size targets
the double layer of the foam from Home Depot held the dart in place better then
the other stuff. At any range the dart only went in the length of the metal tip
plus less then an inch of the wood. Guess it is the weight of the dart that did
not squish the foam downward, on the Home Depot foam, after it hit. With the
real light weight darts that Reyne uses that was not noticed as much, but the
average weight darts you did see a difference. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=910243414-02092013>I
prefer the 80 but have no problem with shooting at the 120. And I REALLY
like the idea of the ten ring target face and 1-10 scoring. Great
Idea.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>I took some time in the late afternoon to toss some darts as
well, and for the most part, I concur with Enequy's conclusions. But I
also had a sicussion afterwards with Jonathas, and had an interesting idea,
which I kind of like. It would mean using the 120cm target, but scoring
1-10, for every ring, instead of 1-5, for each color. it would mean more
potential points, and further down the line, more challenge for those who
become more skilled.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I am one of those who actually has more trouble hitting the target at 20
yards than 30 or 40, simply because I used to throw javelin for distance in HS
and college. I didn't get any hits on the 80cm for either the 20 yard
regular round or the speed round. But I could hit the 120cm.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>So my conclusions are:</DIV>
<DIV>1 - 6 darts</DIV>
<DIV>2 - 120 cm, scoring 1-10 points</DIV>
<DIV>3 - keep timed rounds</DIV>
<DIV>4 - 3 rounds of 20, 20 timed, 30 and 40 yards for a rank</DIV>
<DIV>5 - no ranks for a year (agreed), but still have a score reporting system
to gather data to determine how ranks should be set up.</DIV>
