When it comes to 301 or 501 darts scoring, things are pretty simple actually. As we already mentioned, in these versions you either start with 301 or 501 and your main goal is to reach 0. But what is the scoring catch? Let’s start. These are the simplest of games. Each player starts with a score of 501 or 301 and takes turns to throw 3 darts. When it comes to the actual score, it is calculated and then deducted from the players total.

The thing with 301 dart scoring rules, as well as with 501 scoring rules is that for example; if you need 32 points to reach zero, and you hit 16 and 17 which gives a total of 33; you won’t stay at -1 point, but you’ll be returned immediately to 32, where you began the turn. So, when you’re close to reaching a zero, you must hit the exact amount of the points left on your scoreboard; otherwise, you’ll get right where you were at the beginning of that turn. The only difference in rules between these two games is the fact that sometimes, the 301 version must be started and finished with a double scoring.
