Darts checkouts from 61 to 100

A treble, then a double

Above 60 a single cannot set up a double in the ring, because it would need to be worth more than 20. From 71 the setup dart becomes a treble, paired with the chart's favourite doubles: 71 is T13, D16, 80 is T16, D16, 90 is T18, D18 and 100 is T20, D20. Every route from 71 to 98, and 100, is one treble and one double.

100: T20, D20

100 is the highest score a treble and a double in the ring can finish: 60 + 40. Bull, Bull is the only other two-dart finish. If the treble lands in the single 20 you are on 80 with two darts left, and T16, D16 still finishes it.

Why 99 needs three darts

For a two-dart finish, the score minus the finishing double has to be something one dart can score. From 99 that is 59 before D20 or 49 before the Bull, and no dart scores either; any smaller double would need a setup worth more than 60. So 99 takes three darts: the chart plays T20, 7, D16, and T19, 10, D16 works the same way. It is the lowest score on the chart that needs all three darts.

When to go for the Bull

The Bull is worth 50 and counts as a double, so it can finish a leg. It is the right target in four places:

• 61 to 70. A single cannot leave a double in the ring, so the chart plays a single and then the Bull: 61 is 11, Bull and 70 is 20, Bull. The first dart is easy; the price is a small target to finish on. If you would rather finish in the ring, treble routes take two darts too: 62 is T10, D16, 64 is T16, D8, 68 is T12, D16 and 70 is T10, D20.
• 101, 104, 107 and 110. A treble and the Bull finish these in two darts (110 is T20, Bull), where every other route takes three. See checkouts 101 to 130.
• 161, 164, 167 and 170. The Bull is the only way out. See checkouts 131 to 170.
• 50 with one dart left. The Bull is the only one-dart finish above 40.

What a missed treble leaves

The If the first dart hits the single column shows where you are if the treble lands in the single bed. You still have two darts, and from 71 to 98 and on 100 every one of those leaves is a two-dart finish, so the checkout is still on this visit: 100 becomes 80 (T16, D16), 90 becomes 72 (T12, D18) and 81 becomes 66 (16, Bull). 99 works the same way: a single 20 leaves 79, and T13, D20 finishes it with the two darts left.

Miss with the second dart as well and you are down to one, which is the time for a setup shot. Set Darts in hand to 1 in the checkout calculator to see the best one for any score.
