Question: What is the second highest possible three dart finish in darts?
Show answer
167 (treble 20, treble 19, bull).
The game of darts is a popular sport where players throw small missiles, known as darts, at a circular target (dartboard) fixed to a wall. The primary aim is to reduce a fixed score, commonly 501 or 301, to zero, and the final dart must land in either the bullseye or a double segment.
The highest possible three-dart finish in the game is 170, achieved by hitting two triple 20s (also known as “treble 20”) and a bullseye, worth 50 points.
The second highest possible three-dart finish is 167. The score of 167 is achieved by hitting a treble 20, followed by a treble 19, and finally hitting the bullseye.
This kind of high score finish is often seen in professional darts competitions, showcasing the remarkable skill of the competitors.
