Who in here plays all 3 pretty well?

Are we talking ten pin or candlepin? I grew up on candlepin and was pretty good. Darts never seemed like a big challenge either, certainly not on the level of pool or bowling, IMO!

Either or. Just trying to see how many people out there play all 3 at a decent or good level.
 
What I could dig up quickly.

Pile a Championships and award patches. Couple ADA (Darters) Division Championship pins.

Don't bowl competitively much anymore. But we do have steel tips and a legit coin op (Valley Cougar) Dart board in the game room.

Thats a good ole machine, real reliable. Doesn't track freeze though, we had to do that in our heads at the state tourney.
 
Was supposed to play baseball and football….. Private school can’t give sports scholarships.
Dang dawg, y’all was division III. I know you humble, but if I was you I’d be braggin’. Specially if you played in the O.A.C. ... Hell’s yeah, O.A.C. fo’ life!

no dude. All that is muscle memory and hand/eye coordination, and I was trying to relate it to the pool game not brag about it.

I’m a certified underachiever . A lot of natural talent, but don’t like to put in the effort. Seems a lot of other people focus on one thing and that’s how they get awesome at it.
 
That's how it was for me...need a double 8 to get out...need a double 4 to get out...need a double 2 to get out
Different darts for different levels for sure. Master out, DI/DO, Just DO, AI/AO. US plays a lot of cricket, UK plays a lot of 01
 
Wondering who on here plays Darts and Bowls as well as they play pool?

Thought at some point there would be some sort of tourney including all three.
I played tennis (only one loss my Senior year) and bowled (180-190 average at age 16) at a very high level for a teenager before I ever got into playing pool. Never tried darts, just had no interest. I sucked at foosball too. I did win the camp ping pong tourney when I was 13, playing against older opponents. I also played golf for all of two summers and actually broke 40 for nine holes on a relatively easy course (under 3000 yards for nine holes). At age 18, pool grabbed me and never let me go! It was by far the hardest game I ever tried to play.

If you are talking Candyland, Chutes and Ladders, and Yugio I am right up there, the grandkids pound on me all the time, but in my age bracket I am a world champion.
 
LOL. Just checked this out. Been seeing the title since . . . In all honesty, I thought the three would be pool, snooker, and carom.

I like shooting rifles. Not like Hu, but I try.
 
I am a traditional archer, sorta like darts magnified 😂.

I’ve never been into bowling. A few have told me I’d like it and they’re probably right but my attention is spread so thin already I have to be disciplined with what I let myself get addicted to.
Backgammon-the game of the idle rich

Have you ever heard of a game called Ur? Also called “the royal game of Ur”

A few boards have been found in tombs in Egypt and whatnot. Eventually, a very cool character from the British museum translated a tablet that happened to be rules for the game. There are a few versions but you can definitely see how backgammon has traces of Ur in its DNA.

I love the game. I play the long track rules and it’s pretty intense for something so simple.
