Any true aficionado of playing darts is, most likely, going to be familiar with the Arachnid Dart Board, and its different styles. The Arachnid Company is well known for introducing the soft tipped dart to the world. These particular darts contain a soft plastic point and are lightweight.
The difference between a metal tip dart board and a soft tip one is shown in the small perforations found on the board. The soft tipped dart boards contain sensors that measure how hard the dart hits. This processor also tallies up the players’ scores. This technology became synonymous with the Arachnid Dart Board.
The consumer division of the Arachnid Company was bought by DMI Sports, Inc. in 1999. Dart boards produced and sold by DMI Sports are the same ones that Arachnid used to make. However, they still retain the same quality and excellent features as they always did.
While the quality of this dart board has not been compromised, you will also find that there is a price range from the very budget friendly all the way up to the serious and wealthy player boards. Beginning with the affordable ones, you may want to have a look at the Cricket Pro 110 model of the Arachnid Dart Board. It offers 24 games and 132 options and rings up at around $70. Even more affordable is the Arachnid DarTronic series which range from only $35 to $50.
Just for fun, have a look at The Arachnid Galaxy II Commercial Electronic Dart Board. It has been rated by several consumers as the best that the market has to offer in the form of electronic dart boards. With features such as real coin operation and 15 inch color monitor, some people may feel it is worth the $4,000 price tag. However, you can get a pretty decent Arachnid Dart Board in the form of the Cricket Pro 800 for just $250.
