I ordered this set today because unfortunately it wasn't available in any shop in my immediate vicinity. This dart actually has everything I was looking for: a short barrel, the front scallop and it seems to be very well balanced. The price is of course very high, which usually puts me off buying a set without throwing it at least a few times to try it out. I was really hoping for this review because I took away a lot of useful things from these videos. Well, hopefully this set will live up to the expectations I have. Thank you for the contribution.👍
Now that I've had the time to test this set extensively for 1 week, I can confirm a lot of what is explained in this video. I was a bit worried that the grip in the front might not be enough for me. And indeed, it's not as grippy as one would expect from the pictures, but that doesn't bother us at all in this case, since the scallop offers great orientation and the dart lies very well in the hand. What should be emphasized, however, is the great balance. As someone who usually plays rather heavily front loaded darts, I can say that I have rarely played such a well-balanced dart, even if it took me longer than usual to get used to my throwing arm and to tinker with this set a bit until I got the right combination of shaft and flight for me. You could say it's love at second sight. But as you know, it lasts longer, doesn't it?😉
Another great review Darren 👍🏻 these are right up my street & I'm a rear gripper so a win win. It's also a sexy looking dart from Shot....one of my favourite brands. Definitely on my list but not this month as I'm having my Shot Warrior Outlaw dartboard framed for the wall. Most definitely will pick up a set of these. Again thanks my friend for a great review 🎯👌🏻😁
@@DartsReviewChannel yes it took me awhile for them to fly right for me but so did the Tribal Weapon 3’s but they ended up being one of the best darts I’ve ever had
Very nice looking darts. Nice to see a perfect weight match. Double 4 lol 🤣 What was Rocky the main stars 🌟 verdict? Really enjoyed the review Darren thanks mate keep em coming 👍🏻 🎯 happy darting 🎯
This will be my 3rd dart from the Tribal Weapon range I´ll gladly add to my collection, but tbh I like the Notorious BDG better because of the heavy similarities to the Merv King SE darts I get along with pretty fine. Rowby-John´s new dart also looks amazing,...will be one of these expensive months once again, I guess....
I bought them in 24g. My first impression is the same, Darren: they feel lighter than their actual weight. So thanks for pointing that out, because sometimes I buy the 23g version and that wouldn't have been the best choice here!
Darren! Digging the new challenge segment, looking forward to you end of the year results. I know a lot of people are saying they are overpriced, but shot machines the most intricate darts in my opinion. You get what you pay for.
Shot does have some nice stuff but definitely on the expensive side. Looks pretty nice to hold onto for a bomb shzped dart. If you put out a Rocky dart, I will be first in line. Definitely want the pawprint on the box!!!
Really like the look of those. I wouldn't be bothered with the price if it wasn't for the cheap packaging that always puts me off shot darts. They come across as just overpriced. No effort into presentation. They should take some tips from Target Darts at least....
Problem is they are usually only high priced in other countries not at origin country so its not really seen as a set needing a fancy presentation box. Such boxes are nice but a lot of people only want them if they are displaying the darts or collecting, if you are using them then most throw the box away which is a waste. The ones Shot do are small and neat and easy to store too. Would likely add more to the cost though if they made a fancy box.
Ive git these and my normal darts go in straight but these are very front heavy and go in sticking up a lot . For me they do but i still like them and they would probably be better with long flights
nice change of style on this review ;) .shot looks awesome and some of em have crazy grip aswell :) these look nice but yeah shot is expensive though. ive bought a set and im very happy with them so i might buy another in the future :)
So it’s not only me feeling that with every release the price of Darts goes up. I think 5-6 years ago 60-70€ were already really expensive darts, now it’s the regular
Thanks for the feedback, its good to hear want people think, helps me know what is worth keeping or not. Which music was it, the one in the intro, slow-mo or I suspect the throwing part? Would you prefer no music or something different?
Thanks a lot for the reply! I really like the intro and the music during the slo-mo also seems sensible. I was just a little bothered by the ''goofy'' and kind of repetitive music during the gameplay, but that’s only me and one person who liked my comment. I believe there is no need for any music during the gameplay, but if you like to add some maybe try a more ''chill'' tune. You could also try to have no sound and then comment on it with an audio tape later, maybe explaining more about the dart and how you feel about it or just joking around about being a ''treble 5 champion'' ;) I apologise, I hope everything was comprehensive, I’m not a native speaker :)
Thats great, no problem! Always like to get any feedback good or bad as it just helps. I know one person will like something and another will not, that is just life but got to try things I guess :) The music on that part is kind of a little in-joke with a friend, I like broccoli and the music is called "broccoli on my plate" lol I did it on a funny video before as a bit of a laugh. I can get how it may annoy people though. I may try a different tune or just leave it as you say.
I am not sure if its just the coating, I think often the barrels are coated and then recut so sometimes the coating looks a bit patchy but just guessing here :)
@@newfiekj I dont put them anywhere, its usually the local darters that buy them or people who message me online. Problem if you are overseas is I am not sure you will save much as I only send tracked which depending on the size of the package can add from £10 to £18+ Once I get properly organised though just about everything will either go on ebay or the forum or FB groups or possibly I will put them on my DRC site :)
I’m not a fan or Shot because I think they focus too much on making their darts look fancy which drives the price to be ridiculously expensive; they need to focus more on function and performance, BUT to each their own…I know a lot of people like to get these for the look…anyway, thanks for the review all the same, matey
Taylor doesnt have the monopoly on that style, the Taylor darts were copied from the John Lowe dart but even then there was lots of darts in that shape before him too :)
