American Darts Blog

Have Fun, Relax, Play Darts . . . who do they think they were kidding?

Dart Forums


or message boards, or whatever you call them.  We now have a place where anyone can go to chat with other darters about anything really.  You can find it here . . .

American Darts Message Boards

I know it’s the “off season”, but I wanted to have something in place now so when the fall comes around, and players are looking for leagues, tournament directors are announcing events, and home shooters are wondering if anyone else shoots “darts like these”, we’ll have a place to meet online.

We’ve been averaging a couple of hundred visitors a day to the site, so if you’re running an event, it’s a good way to get the news out.  and it’s easy to post recaps, and even pictures of the event to share with everyone who lives outside of driving distance. 

The forums will replace the newsletter.  Actually, when I started collecting names from people interested in receiving a newsletter, I thought it would be nearly 100% from Pennsylvania.  Instead, there are people from South Carolina, Virginia, Texas, California, UTAH, and points in between who have been shooting American Style Darts.  But, it was hard to put together announcements that would be interesting to everyone on the list.

Now, if you live in Florida, you won’t have an email landing in your box telling you about a dart tournament in Upstate New York.  BUT, you will have a place to go to kindof keep track of the action, and tell others of your darting exploits.

The new dart forum is also set up so that members can add photos, either to their posts or to their own personal page.  So, you can have a photo album online.  Leagues can have pictures of their champions, or more colorful characters.  People can post pictures of their home dart set-ups.  That’s something that I’m looking forward to, actually.

I just got the finishing touches on the forums yesterday (well, there will probably always be more touches you can add), and no one has signed up yet, so if you’re looking for a chance to be the first to do something, this is it!!  sign up and leave a “hello world” message, and you’ll be poster # 1!
