Many of us will remember the combined flight and shaft moulded plastic shafts. Made vertically unbreakable they were and in some cases still are a feature of pub darts. This type of construction seems to be coming back in various forms of solid fight and indeed flight and shaft combo. These Shaft / Flights were, that can still be purchased, come in a rainbow of colours however with its fixed length, weight and flight shape means that this combo doesn’t meet many serious dart player’s needs. Enter modern technology with shafts / stems made from aluminium, steel, nylon, plastic and carbon fibre. Using different length shafts and dart fights will change the way the dart fly’s. There isn’t a best shaft or flight to use as this is personal preference
