Throwlines

The term "oche" is the critical throw line in darts, marking the spot where players must stand when aiming at the dartboard. Pronounced "ah-key"—like "hockey" without the "h"—every dart player needs to understand this term. While you might hear variations in pronunciation, these differences are typically due to local accents or a misunderstanding of the correct term. Embracing the proper terminology enhances your credibility and connection with the dart community, so be sure to get it right!
