Me and my buddy are wondering what the hieght and the throwing distance is for?

Question

for darts,thanks.

Answer 1

The rules are old and have been around for a long time, but often people play by their own rules.

The board itself should be set up with the bulls eye exactly 5 feet 8 inches from the floor.

The toe line (also known as the oche - named for a brewers case - Hockey - that was originally used to establish the distance between the board and the toe line) should be exactly 7 feet 9 1/4 inches from the face of the board. The line on the floor may also be a raised bar, 1 1/2 inches in height and two feet long. In most homes this will be an unwanted obstruction so a piece of masking tape is often used.

Have fun.
