Golf darts rules

Updated

Golf turns the board into a course: hole 1 is the 1, hole 2 the 2, and so on. Like real golf, the lowest score wins. It plays fast with any number of players.

Rules

  • Play 9 holes (1 to 9) or the full 18 (1 to 18).
  • Each player throws three darts at the hole's number.
  • Your best dart on the number sets your strokes for the hole.
  • The fewest strokes over the course wins. Level totals are a tie.

House rules

Many pubs count your last dart instead of your best, and let you stop after any dart, so a good first dart is a decision. The app counts the best dart of the visit, which keeps every visit three darts. The stroke values follow DolfDarts' version, with 3 for a single.
