What is the minimum number of darts a person needs to throw to complete a leg from 501?

Answer 1

• treble 20 (60), treble 19 (57) and double 12 (24)
• treble 18 (54), treble 17 (51) and double 18 (36)
• treble 20 (60), treble 15 (45) and double 18 (36)

There are two ways to perform the 141 outshot with a bullseye finish:

• treble 17 (51), double 20 (40), and bullseye (50)
• treble 19 (57), double 17 (34), and bullseye (50)

Also possible are:

• treble 20 (60), treble 17 (51) and double 15 (30)
• treble 19 (57), treble 18 (54) and double 15 (30)
• treble 19 (57), treble 16 (48) and double 18 (36).

Another way is to score 167 with each set of three darts, scoring a perfect 501 total, in the following way:

• treble 20 (60), treble 19 (57) and bullseye (50)
