Vary the games that you play. If you strictly spend your time at the dart board aiming for the bullseye, your skills will be significantly lacking in other areas of the game. Most games involve aiming for various points on the board, not just hitting it dead center. You will also be less likely to tire of the game when you change up the games you play.
