Noisy Dartboard....

    Can anyone tell me if there is something I can do to stop my dartboard vibrating through the walls? When I throw darts the neighbours complain, and I have even moved the board from the wall where it was ( on the wall between the 2 houses - its a semi detached ) to the back wall where my patio door is but I still get complaints! I cant really move it anywhere else in the house and dont want it to be heard every time I throw a dart. Can I get something to put behind the board to soundproof it maybe??? Any help would be brilliant :)

    One Idea would be do drill a a piece of wood to the wall and attach the board to it.

    Sound deadening material, you can get it in Halfords.

    This stuff-

    Put it behind your dart board setup.

    Alternatively go to a carpet shop and get a piece of scrap carpet. That won't cost you anything and will do the same job.

    I think I'll try the carpet Jimmy Garlic. Sounds like a cheaper option!! Maybe if I could pick up some thick underlay it would do the job better. Have any of ye done this before?
