Unicorn's new signing
Unicorn are going to announce a new signing soon. What's the odds on a few players?
MvG - hottest property at the mo behind Taylor.
Ross Smith - up and coming just won second tier tour
Jamie Wilson - having a good year in BDO
Soft tip player - trying to get a foot in that market.
Yes I'm bored lol.

I reckon it's Michael Smith (if that hasn't been announced already?).

Re: Unicorn's new signing
Have you tried Andy Hamilton's darts? They look to be fairly thick - I am looking for a set of thick darts, and they are the ones I am after in the prediction comps at the moment!!phil davies wrote:Hopefully it's someone with nice thick darts around 27g. So that I have a chance picking them up in the prediction comps.

Good signing for Unicorn - probably swayed by Ando being with them
It wouldn't have been be Ross Smith out of the first post anyway as he signed with Target a couple of weeks ago.

Unicorn not really interested in soft tip is the answer we have had.
Harrows, Traget and Winmau seem to be the UK companies interested in it

Congratulations to Michael Smith.
Dear Unicorn,
Just curious, how much in annual sales is derived from the USA market?
Any thought of adding a USA dart player to Team Unicorn?

Re: Unicorn's new signing
Hi Tex. We sell many hundreds of thousands of sets of darts in the US. Have done since the early 1950's. However, the vast majority of these (95+ % say) are sold in outlets where I am sad to say that the players are unknown and do not generate sales.Texas ColdShot wrote:Congratulations to Michael Smith.

Appreciate the response, as well as confirmation of what I assumed to be millions of dollars in sales of Unicorn product in the USA market.
We miss the days of the late, great Barry Twomlow when there seemed to be more support of the USA dart community from Unicorn. Best of luck for your continued success, and hoping for a more active role in support of USA darts and players in the future.
Re: Unicorn's new signing
I would rather see mnfg invest in tournaments and pro series of events instead of players . I think this would have a bigger impact on growing the game within the USA, than sponsoring individuals. We don't have a true group of pro players so the return on individual sponsorship is low to zero. Until an American decides to go to UK to be full time pro money targeted at usa market better spent on growing the game at participation level.
