Why double 15 is an awkward finish
double 15 (30) is one of the less-favoured doubles to aim for. The problem is the miss: slip into the single 15 and you are left on an odd number, which you cannot halve — you have to throw a single first to bring it back to an even double. Good players avoid leaving 30 when a clean even number is on offer instead.
If you miss D15
Slip inside the wire to the single 15 and you are left on 15, an odd number you must split first — a single 1 leaves 14 (double 7). Miss outside the wire and you stay on 30.
Tips for hitting D15
- Aim just below the wire so a dart that drops still lands in the double, not above it in the single.
- Throw at the same pace as your scoring darts — don't "guide" the finish.
- Know your miss: a slipped D15 leaves 15, so you already know your next dart before you throw.
