Varieties of Soft Tip Darts
Soft tip darts come in a variety of designs; the elements involved in each tip combined with personal style will contribute to the dart's general performance. Throwers must experiment to find the dart best suited for his or her style. The elements of soft tip darts that must be considered include the shaft and barrel shapes, the weight, grip and materials used to craft the dart. Some well-known brands for soft tip darts are Nodor, Unicorn, Viper, Halex, Sportcraft and Arachnid.
Materials in the Barrel
Of all soft tip darts, those with barrels made from brass generally cost less than some other darts with barrels made from chrome, copper or tungsten. Brass is a soft metal, very heavy, and tends to show signs of wear more quickly. At the other end of the spectrum, tungsten soft tips have barrels with smaller diameters. They are slim, heavy and easy to throw. However, keep in mind that lighter soft tip darts are the usual choice for many electronic board games.
