'Hidden jewel' finds its mark -- Orlando Sentinel

"We have some of the best female players in the world living in Orlando," said Cora Mahoney, who helps run C&M Darts, which has served as a supplier of dart accessories from England since 1984.

Mahoney, 50, has been playing the sport seriously for about 15 years. She said finding a game in the area is easier than people might realize.

Lapierre's dart exploits go largely unnoticed

Bonnie Lapierre's darts resume is long, and it's also widely ignored by the masses.

The Regina thrower would be a household name if she played other sports -- she's won 13 provincial titles in 14 years, and captured the national 2005 and 2006 women's championships.

The Daily Record - RAISE YOUR DART RATE

Oche pressure same as for footballers
By Paula Murray

THE heart rate of darts players in major events can match other top sportsmen, a study has revealed.

Medical tests show that despite its pints and pot-bellied image, the game of darts can more than double the average heart rate during a tense match at the oche.

Phil "The Power" Taylor and other players were wired up at a recent tournament to discover the effects of tension and playing in smoky venues where conditions regularly top 100F and 90 per cent humidity.

Terre Haute News: Terre Haute professional dart thrower’s son readies for national competition

‘He doesn’t know he can miss,’ father says
By Laura Followell
The Tribune-Star

TERRE HAUTE — Terre Haute teen Danny Lauby might throw his way to college and become known worldwide for doing it, thanks to his professional dart-throwing dad.

Danny strolled calmly to the toe line in front of a dartboard, paused to focus on his target, raised his left arm and gracefully threw his steel-tipped dart into the black center of the bull’s-eye, known as the double bull.
