When you land on 156

156 is a three-dart finish — you will use all three darts. Start with T20 (60) to bring 156 down into double range, then follow the route to double 18 (36). Set up cleanly so a missed dart still leaves a makeable double.

If you miss

Your finishing dart is D18 (36). Slip inside to the single 18 and you are left on 18 — finish on double 9. Miss outside the wire and you stay on 36 for your next dart, so you never lose the double.
