Unicorn Phil Taylor World Champion 90% Tungsten 24g Dart

In 2010, I was looking for another Phil Taylor dart and came across the Unicorn Phil Taylor World Champion 90% Tungsten 24g Dart.

I bought a set on Dartscorner. I was fortunate enough to visit London, England back in 2006 and 2007 and met my former British counterparts at work. My British boss was kind enough to have the darts delivered to his home and sent to me through a co-worker who was in London at that time.

The darts had more grip than the Unicorn Phil Taylor Silver Star. I kept the packaging and accessories and used short Unicorn Slik Stik shafts and standard flights.

Dimensions of the dart from Dartscorner:

Length 53.60 mm
Width 6.40 mm
Narrowest Point 6.40 mm
Widest Point 6.40 mm


Here are some photos of the darts. As you can see in the picture, some of the paint have chipped away. It is because the World Champions were my preferred darts for a long time.







Thanks for looking.

Unicorn Phil Taylor Silver Star 80% Tungsten 24g Dart

While I was practicing with my Winmau Navigator darts, I came to realize that I need to try another tungsten dart.

I was reading through dart history and discovered the Phil Taylor is a great, if not the greatest darter ever.

I got the Unicorn Phil Taylor Silver Star 80% Tungsten 24g darts online. The dart was bigger compared to the Navigator but the weight and straight barrel design suited me. As it turns out, my one and only 180 (at this time of writing) came using the Silver Stars.

I kept the original packaging and original accessories, and tried to configure the dart to my liking, where I used medium nylon shafts and standard Unicorn flights.

Dimensions of the dart from Dartscorner:

Length 50.80 mm
Width 7.10 mm
Narrowest Point 7.10 mm
Widest Point 7.10 mm

Winmau Navigator 90% Tungsten 21g Dart

MY first set of darts was the Winmau Navigator 90% Tungsten 21g given as a present from my gf (now wife) back in 2009. The price of the set was around 1900Php. My wife also gave a Winmau Pro SFB Dartboard so I could practice at home.

I had a difficult time throwing them because 1) I was very new to the game and 2) apparently the darts didn't suit my throwing style.

I kept the original packaging and original accessories such as the hard plastic case, aluminum shafts and arrowhead flights. I also added a set of aluminum shafts and arrowhead flights from a brass set that I gave to my brother.

The dart has a scallop which aids the darter in finding a consistent placement of grip. Grip-wise, it's not as grippy as I would've liked but decent enough for a throw. The barrel is narrow which allows tighter groupings.

Dimensions of the dart from Dartscorner:
Length 48.40 mm
Width 6.30 mm
Narrowest Point 5.50 mm
Widest Point 6.30 mm

Here are some photos of the darts:

Welcome!

This is my collection of darts as well as my thoughts on the sport. I'm still a beginner and currently play for recreation.
