Precision is arguably the most important thing when it comes to playing darts to a good level, and the grip on your darts can have an impact on your game. In this article we will explore the topic of why grip is so important and also recommend 10 sets of our most grippy darts available at Darts Corner. This blog will also provide you with some information about the best grippy darts on the market and how they can help players who prefer to have a lot of grip on the barrels of their darts.

The Importance of Grip

Controlling the dart in the way you want to will be impacted by your grip style and how grippy the darts are. A secure grip gives players extra stability and accuracy, so finding darts with extra grip could be the key to improving how consistently you can throw accurate darts.

The most grippy darts that feature in this blog have been designed to enhance the grip and improve the dynamics of your release when you let go of the dart. Practice and muscle memory are two factors that come into play, but a set of darts with added grip can ensure the dart is more secure throughout its motion towards the dartboard, which minimises the number of darts that go astray.

Some of the leading darts manufacturers and brands continue to design darts with extra grip on them through a variety of different ways, such as the materials and specific textures that provide extra traction with the barrels of your darts.
