Best Soft Tip Darts

Most people consider darts a fun leisure sport, nothing less but nothing more either. But there are people who are serious about this sport and Arachnid SFP900 is a kit designed specifically for these people. It is a little on the expensive side, sure. But the advantages of these darts and the set in general are staggering.

First and foremost, each dart is made of 90% tungsten. This is a premium material that's robust, corrosion- and scratch-resistant, dense, and practically unbendable. Using this material, the people behind these darts have been able to make these little missiles a lot thinner than your typical steel dart but with the same control and precision qualities.

Though they weigh just 18 grams (0.63 ounces), these soft-tip darts are as easy to throw accurately as their steel counterparts. Furthermore, the aluminum shaft and embossed flights aid aerodynamics, making sure that the darts go exactly where you throw them.

In addition to 3 darts, the set includes 3 spare flights, 3 spare shafts, 7 spare points, and a wrench. But, most importantly, the package features a hard SideRider case that keeps the darts and the accessories safe and comes with a belt clip, making it easy in transportation.

Bottom line, Arachnid SFP900 is a kit that delivers quality over quantity. It is a complete premium package for professionals and people who take darts seriously. Using these soft-tip darts, you'll be able to match the performance of people playing with steel models.

Though the name would have you believe otherwise, this is hardly a product for fat cats. While the price may seem a little steep at first, keep in mind that you get 21 darts, as well as a nice storage jar. Plus, it's not like this is a kit that banks on quantity instead of quality either. On the contrary, these are some excellent darts.

The nickel barrels, with silver coating, give the darts excellent balance and plenty of style points stemming mostly from the slim profile. Plus, each of these barrels includes strategically placed knurled bands, deep grooves, and rings. These elements make great gripping points, encouraging consistent hand placement and helping you build good habits.

The lightweight nylon shafts tightly fit the barrel. This way, they're able to improve stability and that, in turn, means you'll unlikely have to retighten them in the middle of the game.

Further down the list are the flights, which are no joke either. Unlike their subpar counterparts, these flights improve acceleration and reduce drag, allowing the darts to produce a consistent flight path that's necessary for pinpoint accuracy.

Finally, the 2BA Tufflex tips are much stronger and durable than your average soft-tip darts.

All things considered, this Fat Cat product is easily the most well-balanced entry on this list. With it, you get a great number of darts and a nice little storage container for them. But, most importantly, the darts in question are one of the best options on the market today.

Right off the bat, this Billiard Evolution dart wrench will prove a good choice for people who like to get together, drink a few beers, and throw some darts. For a relatively modest price, the company sends you 12 darts, a reclosable bag that you can use to store and transport these darts, a wrench, and a whopping 100 spare soft points.

The wrench is one of the things we like most about this set. With it, you'll be able to tighten and loosen the aforementioned tips from the barrels. These soft plastic tips aren't as durable as their steel counterparts, so it is nice to have 100 spare options and the tool to replace these tips at hand.

Other than that, these are more or less your standard darts. With these 12 darts, you get 3 of each color: black, blue, green, and red. This way, it is easier to break into teams and follow/keep the score.

The darts are really lightweight, each adding up to just 0.56 ounces. Generally speaking, the weight would make it more difficult to throw them accurately but the brass barrels give these darts great balance, so you should be able to perform to your standards. That being said, the barrels are a little slippery, something you'll inevitably have to get used to.

In other words, what we have here is an excellent party set. With this set, you'll be able to relieve stress and improve your hand-eye coordination. You'll also be able to throw a casual Friday night shindig and a tight group of friends entertained as you compete for the darts title.

The folk at GWHOLE advertise this product as "darts that were built to win" and it is hard to argue with them. Add to that the relatively inexpensive price tag and you can definitely see why the set is so popular among darts enthusiasts. For around 15 bucks, the company offers you 12 darts, 16 dart flights, and 200 spare tips. Plastic tips aren't as tough as their steel analogs, which means you'll definitely be able to put these spares to good use.

For the most part, these darts are equally great for beginners and experienced players. The nickel barrels are precision-machined, giving you excellent grip and superior flight to the board. The silver coating adds balance and makes it easier to make an accurate throw. The grooves are deep and the bands are knurled and placed in a way that improves grip, so it is easier to develop consistent hand placement.

One thing that we really like is how easy the tips are to replace. What we don't like, however, are the flights. Not the overall quality because they're mostly great, reducing dart drag and increasing its speed. Just the fact that they're a little difficult to attach and replace.

Apart from that, this GWHOLE soft-tip darts set leaves practically no room for complaints. The darts themselves are great, you get a decent variety and number of additional accessories, and the whole thing is just as suitable for beginners as it is for experienced players.

Viper Sure Grip is definitely not the most comprehensive set on the market today. All you get is 3 darts. The set doesn't include spare points, flights, or even a case/pouch/bag to safely and conveniently store and transport them. But the sheer quality of these darts is enough to earn Viper Sure Grip a spot on our list, albeit the lowest one.

First things first, their aerodynamic profile allows air to glide nice and smooth along the surface. This way, the drag is reduced and the speed is increased. Naturally, the increase in speed lets the dart hit the board with additional force.

On paper, the aluminum shafts are nothing to write home about. But, equipped with locking holes, they fit a lot more securely to the barrel, so you won't have to retighten them after a throw or two.

The same story with the nickel barrels. In theory, it's nothing we haven't seen before. But add to that rubberized sleeves and grooves and you get exceptional grip throw after throw.

Lastly, the tips themselves. Equipped with reinforced cones, these tips are surprisingly robust and durable, not as much as their steel analogs but a lot more than your average plastic tips.

Long story short, designed mostly for electronic dartboards, Viper Sure Grip will fit casual-to-intermediate level players to a tee. Using these darts, one can noticeably improve his skills. Plus, the flights with their holographic design look particularly cool.
