This is a sad goal for me. 3 years ago

I was inspired to add this goal because a friend had aquired a set of Jarts from his nieghbor. We joked of having a tournament, which was put off and we never got around to it. That friend passed last fall, and I Inherited his jarts, but havent had the heart to even play.

The grass is getting greener. The snow is gone. 3 years ago

Nearly time for the open matches of the pre-gnat league, sorta like the cactus league, or the grapefruit league. It’s the best time in New England to be outdoors, before the bugs, before the black flies, before the whatevers. Time to dust off the ole’ lawn darts.
I’m not sure my neighbor will appreciate this as much as I do, since he has a 4,2, and 1 month old….

great news!! 4 years ago

I scored a set of original sliding Jarts… As I had once thought my parents had a set tucked away in a secret hiding spot. While at home, I was able to track them down, and aquire them from my folks.
I hope to be taking some pictures as they are in reasonable shape. one is bent, and one of the rings is a little tweaked. Otherwise, they are good to go. Maybe some time later in the week, I can take some pictures of the worlds most dangerous game in action…
look out world, I’m armed with yard darts.

Everyone but me... 4 years ago

A friend of mine aquired a set of jarts this past weekend. I guess he got them from a neighbor’s yard sale. I’m totally jelous. I’ve been looking for a set for some time now, and have yet to seen any. I’m going to have to increase my efforts as yard sale season is nearling peak. I hope to have a set before the end of the summer.

I have to wonder if I'll ever be able to acheive this goal. 4 years ago

I mean, there’s no local competition. I don’t own a set of lawn darts, I can’t legally aquire a set. With those handicaps I’m sure this goal is at risk of being written off as impossible.

This guy is crazy… even calls the cops on himself.

The history:

Does anyone have a set stored away in their closet, attic, that they want to hook me up with?

You ever play these things? 4 years ago

Despite their inhearant danger they kick some serious ass. Jarts!
I mean who doesn’t like to toss pointed heavy object up in a arcing fashion towards another goal? Like horseshoes, only with like 50% more chance to lose an eye.
