    Hi guys,
    We got the mother in law a dartboard for her birthday today after a long night last night playing darts, which she really enjoyed, and continued playing by herself for an hour afterward:D. I have the check out card but her board didnt come with one. Anyone know any sites where i can download or print it off?? Id give her mine but i want it:D
    PS i tried google, but got plenty of dart games, even a texan fishing licence:confused: but no chart. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    Give her yours. You should try and learn your finishes without looking at a card. Gives you a much better chance of hitting them if you don't have to stop after every dart to check what to do.

    Im okay at the adding up. But i got it for my first fathers day, so....
    I can give it to her but would rather keep it you know. Having said that, if i havn got one by tonight il give it to her before she go home

    Please tell me that "so...." doesn't mean you have some sort of sentimental attachment to a checkout card :eek:

    Do you have kids?
    The one thing il remember of my first fathers day when i woke is my partner with a new cabinet for the dartboard and my (then) 8mnth old daughter sitting holding a check out poster smiling. Call me feminine or whatever but yeah, it does hold sentimental value

    :confused:

    Can't see what that question has to do with you getting sentimental over an insignificant mass produced inanimate object like a checkout card....or poster, whichever it may be.


    :rolleyes: wonder how you would be if you keep your daughters first tooth or if she made a fathers day card for you

    devastator, the chap is just looking for a checkout card, if you cant help him, why not just leave it instead of giving him stick..

    stirring it just for the sake it me thinks !!!:cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 59 ✭✭damo180


    i can see why it would be of sentimental value if his 8 month daughter "bought it" for him for his first fathers day.

    My now 10 yr old son wrote on a scrap of paper when he was 4 "i love you dad" which I keep in my wallet so I can see where he is coming from.....

    Because if you had a child you might understand where im coming from.

    If she made a card for me? Thats a bit away but yea if she made it i probably would keep it somewhere. Anything else you would like to know there pal?

    Thanks for all the helpful replys lads. She left anyway, without a card. Im buying a new kit soon and usually they have cards with them. Il give her that if i dont print of one of the above.
    Thanks again

    is it just me of is that there unicorn card just pure ****e, especially when you consider their wall chart is right.

    117 -wrong, 118-wrong, 119-wrong, 120-right, 121-wrong 122-wrong, 123 wrong, 124-wrong, 125-wrong, 126-half right should be t19,t19, d6. 127-right, 128-wrong, 129 is ok, 130 again only half right, 131 - right, 132-wrong, the higher aren't too bad but still 135 is wrong. I'd say 137 is wrong too as t20,t19 is much simpler than t19,t16 although i can understand the reasoning for it. Same with 140 (although i've done it this way for fun) Surely if you first dart is 3x20, you stay there, not to mention. Its much better to go 3x20,20,20 for tops than 3x20,16, and having to hit another treble to leave a double.

    In fact I'd say whoever wrote that deserves a dart straight to the eyeball.

    It's awful alright.

    Tbh you should be learning the checkouts from watching darts rather than reading a wall chart. You learn much more from seeing how the Pro's doing it.

    I reckon that is an old version. I'm pretty sure that any new board that i've gotten has had the correct finishes.
