Yips
Ah, the dreaded “yips” of the darting world, dartitits. It’s that moment when your arm suddenly forgets how to function and releasing the dart feels like trying to let go of a grenade. One second you’re a darting wizard and the next, you’re frozen at the oche, questioning every life choice that led you to this moment. It’s like your brain and arm are in a heated argument and your dart is the hostage. Dartitis doesn’t care if you’re a beginner or a pro, it strikes without warning, turning smooth throws into awkward, jittery launches. Some say it’s psychological, others blame bad karma, but we all know it’s really the dartboard’s way of humbling you. The only cure? Deep breaths, a stiff drink and pretending it never happened.
