RED DRAGON Golden Eyes 22g, 24g, 26g, 28g, 30g or 32g Tungsten Darts Set with Flights and Stems

I decided to purchase a second set of darts at a slightly lower weight to the 28g darts I already owned, so I decided to try these Red Dragon 'Golden Eyes' at 24g.I read many of the reviews to these darts and was astounded by the many negative comments of how poor they were because flights would fall out, shafts would work themselves loose or even break if a dart falls to the floor. To all of these reviewers I would like to say this............Thats what happens to all makes of darts, to all darts players from time to time! Flights will fall out if there is a loose grip at the shaft. To remedy this apply an 'O' ring to the top of the shaft at the flight grooves. If one is already fitted, slide it up slightly to tighten the grip. Shafts do work themselves loose, they always have. If you just take a second to make sure they are tightened before throwing, there shouldn't be a problem. I do this every time I go to the oche! Always have and I've been playing darts on and off for well over 40 years. Shafts do break! That is part and parcel of the game (sadly), especially if you managed to 'Robin Hood' a dart (One dart going straight down the flight grooves of another dart already in the board. Shafts, as well as flights are going to break or become unusable over a period of time. That is not the darts manufacturers fault, that is wear and tear. Replacement flights and shafts are easily purchased at a very low cost and it is worth buying spare sets just in case you do have a malfunction. There are literally thousands upon thousands of different sizes, designs, colours, many costing no more than a quid or two.Anyway, on to these 'Golden Eyes' darts.The darts are very pleasing on the eye and look great. The gold colour within the barrel does look slightly dim and gives the impression of being used rather than being all shiny and cringeworthy. They are very nicely balanced and feel good in the hand. The grip on the barrel is not over done which leaves the dart feeling smooth rather than rugged. This is something people with slippery fingers may wish to consider before buying this set of darts. They are made of 90% tungsten so will be long lasting and hard wearing. For those who have complained the darts 'broke' after one or two goes, I have to question whether it was the barrel (the metal bit) or the shaft (the bit between the barrel and the flight) that broke, as in all of the time I have played the game, I have never yet had a barrel break or indeed have I ever heard of it happening to anyone else.These darts are a good set for anyone who wishes to participate in the game. Not too cheap and not too expensive, they are a really nice set. The shafts size may not be everyone's liking, but that is down to individual choice rather than a design fault.To prop up my review of how good these darts are, my Wife really liked the look and feel of mine and went and bought herself a set.Oh! and one last thing..........if the darts aren't hitting your target, that isnt down to poor darts, that is down to the player being crap!

Very nice darts, well balanced, tried them with different lengths of stem, pretty good with all lengths, feel good in the hand and plenty of grip, my son loves them but with longer stems than me, so I'll be ordering another set. Decent price and supplied by red dragon, excellent communication and nothing is too much for them to help you out if you have a problem or question... as for the people marking the product down because a stem has broken or a flight come out, I can only assume you're not dart players, you will learn, stems break, flights come out and split, they're both as cheap as chips and can be replaced for very little.

These are a nice set of darts and sit well in the hand. There's a small silver ring at the base of the notch where the flight sits, which can be used to tighten the notch around the flight. On one of the three darts, this doesn't move at all, meaning about every third throw, the flight falls out. I've replaced the flights with a slightly thicker set, which seems to have solved the problem, but not great for a £30 set of arrows.

Excellent darts. The barrels are nice and thin making them perfect for grouping and they have a nice medium grip. They come with good quality aluminium stems and 2 sets of decent flights. The case is also good quality with plenty of pockets for flights and stems etc... Overall a fantastic product at a very good price, I will be ordering another set to keep as a spare. Very happy, would 110% recommend this product and the seller

I may have missed the length in the description (I didn’t think to look as I didn’t know darts came in different lengths - or at least, with such a degree of variance in length)… the flights on these sit on the back of my hand (I don’t have big hands), meaning deflections from my own hand as I throw, and sometimes the flights come off as I throw because they are in contact with my hand as the dart leaves my fingers.They therefore don’t sit comfortably and feel really odd to throw.I persevere though and continue to play with them, but I would not buy again.

Fantastic darts . Perfect for me

Stem broke after only a couple of hours of use and the flights of the other darts come off when they are thrown

The media could not be loaded. Nice darts but the thread is shocking, willing to give another go hopefully just a one off.
