A horse in darts refers to a high-scoring round where a player scores 26, 41, or 60 points in three darts. It is called a horse because it requires three different targets to achieve. This term is commonly used in casual or pub games and adds an element of excitement and challenge to the game.

A perfect game in darts is known as a “Nine-Dart Finish.” It is the pinnacle achievement in the sport, accomplished by hitting the maximum score possible (501 points) with just nine darts. This involves hitting consecutive triple 20s, followed by triple 19s, and ending with a bullseye. Only a selected few have accomplished this rare feat, adding to its allure in the darts world.
