**If dartboards were made of horsehair we would have a nation of hairless horses and pigs. There are simply not enough animals in the world to meet the demand (if there were one).

>>Dartboards (for steel point darts) are made of one of three different things: sisal, wood or wound paper. The latter two in this list are the least dependable and will fall apart within three to eight weeks depending on frequency of use. The bristles in a bristle dartboard are made of sisal fibers and will last considerably longer. Generally, good dartboards are heavy, averaging about 12 pounds apiece.
