🎯 The Power of Pixel Grip: Why Luke Littler’s Darts Make a Difference
What Is a Pixel Grip?
If you’ve ever picked up a dart and thought, “That just feels right,” chances are you’ve experienced a great grip design — and the Pixel Grip is one of the best in the game.
Created by Target Darts, the Pixel Grip uses hundreds of tiny “pixels” — small precision cuts across the barrel — to give a finely textured surface. It’s engineered to balance grip security and smooth release, making it a top choice for pros and casual players alike.
Why players love Pixel Grip:
-
Excellent finger traction without feeling too sharp.
-
Consistent feel even with sweaty hands.
-
A smoother release for improved accuracy.
This makes the Pixel Grip ideal for players who like a medium to firm texture and want to maintain complete control throughout their throw.
