Shot Darts – “Warrior – Tipu” – Soft Tip Dart Set – 80% Tungsten

Shot Warrior Tipu Soft Tip Darts, Front Weighted, 80% Tungsten

The Shot Warrior Tipu is named for the Te Reo Māori word meaning to grow and prosper. It’s a front-weighted, 80% tungsten barrel with a tightly packed ring grip from nose to tail, plus wave and cinder grip in a tribal tattoo design. The set includes Premium Lippoint tips, Eagle Claw clear-blue shafts and blue Warrior flights.

Price: $62.99 in 18 or 20 grams.

Throw it from anywhere

Because the ring grip runs the full length of the barrel, the Tipu doesn’t push you into one grip position. Shot says it’s built for a confident throw from anywhere along the barrel. That makes it a good pick if you move your grip around, or if you haven’t settled on one.

Barrel size

A retailer lists the 18-gram Tipu barrel at 47.00 mm long and 6.30 mm wide, with a 16.5-gram barrel. That’s a long, slim profile for an 80% tungsten dart.

Both 18 and 20 grams are in stock. If your current darts feel like they float, try 20. If your arm tires or your throw feels forced, 18 is the lighter option.
