What's a good darts average?
Your 3-dart average is the clearest measure of your scoring power. Here's roughly where players land, so you can see where you stand and what to aim for next.
Ranges are typical, not official — averages vary by format, night and opponent. The number that matters is your own trend over time.
Track your average automatically
You can't improve what you don't measure. Oche records every dart and shows your 3-dart average, checkout % and weakest numbers after each leg — so you always know what to practise next.
