Isnt't this simple maths? Add up his scores and divide by the number of darts to get his one dart average, multiply the one dart average by 3 to get a three dart average.

Or am I being thick?

Exactly what Ginge said , the game makes no difference. Add up the scores divide by darts thrown multiply by 3 for the three dart average.

Then take off 10 if you were playing on one of those big PDC boards.

Looking at the scores it won’t be much higher than 10 anyway!!

Why would it be a flat 10 point deduction anyway? Surely the deduction would have to be a percentage? Hmm?

After extensive research you can deduct 17.5% from your average on a unicorn to find your actual average.

We call it Uncle Barry's VAT
