			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Possibly the best electronic dartboard out there on the market right now is the unicorn electronic soft tip dartboard. This dartboard is eerily similar to the original cork and metal dartboards but there is one added feature that makes it really fantastic: an electronic score board. </p>
<p>Not only do you get all of the safety features of an electronic dartboard like the plastic pin-ridden board and the blunter soft tipped metal darts but you get an electronic audible score board to keep track of all the points. It was all always such a hassle to manually track each player&#8217;s points as the game went on but now you don&#8217;t have to because the machine will do that for you. If you&#8217;re looking for an electronic dartboard but you don&#8217;t want to spend a ton of money the Unicorn dartboards are also relatively inexpensive.</p>
<p>Unicorn has been making dartboards for a while now. They know that people want to be able to throw their darts and actually have them stick in the board. A lot of dartboards have trouble holding onto the darts once they are thrown but the Unicorn ones don&#8217;t have this problem at all. They also are incredibly accurate and quick to keep track of the scores.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve done any browsing for dartboards you&#8217;ve probably come across the viper pisces electronic dartboard before. If you&#8217;ve come across that particular dartboard you might have said to yourself: Hey, why the hell is that dartboard so expensive? It&#8217;s true. The viper pisces electronic dartboards are a little bit pricier than most dartboards out there. In fact, most of the viper pisces dartboards are over one hundred dollars while the other brands tend to land between fifty and a hundred dollars. So what is it about viper pisces that makes it so much more money? The viper pisces electronic dartboards come with one of the best wall mounts out there. This wall mount not only fastens to the wall but it also comes with it&#8217;s own cork board protection to protect your home&#8217;s walls from thrown dart damage.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The history of the game of darts goes back a long time. Legend has it that soldiers during the Middle Ages used to throw spears at barrel bases or cut-up tree trunks to get over their boredom. This gradually gave shape to what we now know as dart games. The system of scoring, followed across the world, came into being during the early 18th century.Dart games have become popular over the years as it is inexpensive to play, can be played indoors during bad weather, no dress codes are required, and can be played by anyone – male or female, young or old.</p>
<p>The basic requirements are a dartboard and darts. With the advancement of technology dartboards have also evolved through the times. The most common dartboard is the bristle board – either cork or sisal. Cork dartboards deteriorate quickly with continued used, as the darts leave holes in the boards and the cork crumbles. The fibrous nature of sisal, however, is able to overcome this drawback and has therefore gained popularity. Sisal does not crumble even after constant use. Electronic dartboards are also available, and are equipped with sensors allowing for automated scoring.</p>
<p>There are various types of darts. The main parts of a dart are the tip, barrel, shaft and flight. Tips are either steel or soft. Soft tips are preferred on electronic dartboards and cork dartboards and are also recommended for new players. Steel tips are for the more experienced dart players. Shafts also come in various types. Synthetic flights are the most common nowadays and can be combined with the shafts. The use of feathers as flights has decreased considerably nowadays.</p>
<p>Many dart accessories are available nowadays. Instead of simply hanging the dartboard on walls, dart cabinets can be used to add style and elegance to your dart game. Many players also attach add-a-grams to get the required weights on the darts. The perfect weight improves accuracy in shooting. Dart mats are useful for new players, as the bounce-off from the boards may cause considerable damage to the floor. It is also important to have a rule book as there are many methods of keeping scores and the game can be played under different rules.</p>
