I play a game called 'Supermarket'.

Basically you set yourself a timeframe (I chose 1 hour). You start on 100 and have either 6 or 9 darts to check it out (I play 6). Once you achieve this, you move on to 101 then 102 etc etc until your hour is up, simple! I don't go back to 100 once I've missed a checkout but if you're an advanced player then that's an extra challenge you could introduce. My record is 132 but usually 122 is about right. Give it a go!

Apologies if this game has already been mentioned, but it was mentioned to me last night at my club and it's the first I've heard of it:

It's called '4 up 1 down'
You start on 80 and have to check it out in 3 darts, if you do you add four and go to 84, if you don't you go down to 79, then repeat this on your new score for however long you want (I just tried it for 1 hour) and see if you can beat your score next time!

Apparently Bob Anderson came up with it so it's bound to be good, I enjoyed playing it just to mix things up.
