Tester Quotes: 

  • “…I loved the grip on the upper half of the dart. I can really feel it even with my light hold.” County Lady Player 
  • ” … there is a bit of my old Sigma’s in them but much better…” Super League player 
  • ” these are just so much better than I imagined. I was never keen on the tapered nose dart but this is just totally different…” Elite player

Downsides: As always the Camaro did not suit everyone’s taste, the main ‘Debbie Downers’  were surrounding the grip. Some players find it very aggressive and out of sync with such a smooth sleek design. Another player wanted the grip section to be smaller than the current segment. Often though these things are simply a matter of personal taste. 

Durability – So far, Camaro have stood up very well they have been used in over two hundred legs by a group of different players over a extended period. 

Coach: This is a superb dart. It would will suit players who are very precise with each dart and those who group very closely together. They encourage One player has ordered a set in the heavier weight and is confident he may switch. A Side-loading stem combo also worked well.

SnapShot: Camaro is a superb dart, popular with most testers and precision throw styles. Durable and enticing as well as superbly engineered and manufactured.

£26.90 is exceptional value
