Never heard of them !! If darts don't stick it's either 'cos you have naff
darts or a completely naff dartboard !!! It would probably be cheaper to
get a new dartboard than waste time with special darts, stick to a brand
name like Winmau. Sounds like a task for the Internet !!! I had a quick
search & there are loads of suppliers in USA.
Thinking about it, maybe you should get plastic darts for Pinkie, or those
ones with magnetic heads that stick to a metal dart board :-) Who knows
what could happen if  you said the wrong thing whilst playing darts - an
inadvertant, 'sorry dear, there's no more beer' could land you in a hole
heap of doggies doo doos !!!
Cheers & luv to Pinkie
