But this is not just a gimmick or something fun for social media. This game is actually a quite important practice game.

A lot of players are simply not used to throwing for the 170 finish in real matches. When practicing, when a player hits two Treble 20s, the automatic reaction is usually to stay on Treble 20 with the third dart, go for the 180 maximum instead, and post a photo of the darts all sitting in the Treble 20 bed, for a random darts Facebook group…

That means many players rarely practise the feeling of standing on a possible Big Fish checkout. And that creates pressure.

Because if you suddenly get the opportunity in a match (maybe in a deciding leg) you are suddenly trying something you almost never practise. That’s where the Big Fish Challenge becomes valuable.

If you have already tried the 170 route hundreds or even thousands of times on GoDartsPro, the situation feels much more natural. You already know the rhythm. You know the visual setup. You know what it feels like to aim at the bull after two big trebles.
And hopefully you’ve also already hit a few. That experience removes pressure and increases confidence when the opportunity appears in a real game.

The rules are simple, fast and addictive:
You throw your first two darts to score as much as possible.
After that, your third dart is aimed at the bullseye.

The scoring system creates both pressure and reward:
Hit the bullseye → your score is doubled
Hit outer bull → you keep your score
Miss the bull completely → your score is cut in half

And if you manage to hit:
Treble 20
Treble 20
Bullseye
You catch the BIG FISH and receive an additional 100 bonus points.

The Big Fish Challenge is a perfect game to use:
→ As a warm-up before matches
→ To improve pressure finishing
→ To practise switching focus from scoring to finishing
→ To improve bullseye confidence
→ As a short and intense challenge during practice sessions
→ Together with friends or teammates to create competition

It’s also a fantastic mental training game.
You learn to stay composed after two great darts instead of getting overly excited or rushing the third dart.

One of the most underrated skills in darts is learning how to finish after building a big opportunity. Many players can hit two perfect darts. The real challenge is converting the chance. The Big Fish Challenge trains exactly that.

So next time you stand on 170 in a real match, you don’t want it to feel unfamiliar.

You want to feel like:
“I’ve been here before.”
