How far away is the throw line? How high is the centre bullseye from the floor?

 The height of the dartboard from the centre of the bullseye to the floor should be 5 feet and eight inches (or 1.73 metres)

The distance from the centre of the bullseye to the throw line (or oche as it is better known) is 7 feet nine and a quarter inches (or 2.73 metres)

    Hi, I'm Gerry Peters and I run thedartsshop.co.uk a website that specialises in darts supplies. I've been playing darts for many more years than I care to remember and, God willing, I'll be playing for many more! I love this game - it's not just the beer - honest!
