Yay!! another Bulls Fighter set to review, its always great to see these as I am often surprised at how well they are made and again its another fantastic set but I am getting ahead of myself here so lets start properly.

I have reviewed a few sets of the Bulls Fighter darts now and would love to see a steel tip version but I guess the market they know is soft tip so we have another soft tip set, but this may appeal to some steel tippers too if you dont mind using a conversion point. This particular model is the Domanais 18g and is the signature model of a player from the Philippines called Joseph Domanais, I hope I pronounced his name right in the video too! 🙂

Once again its a very good looking dart and very cleanly machined and polished to a high shine. Looking at the dart its obviously set up for a rear grip again with that very grip almost lethal looking facetted shark style grip on the rear but there is a nice little lip at the nose of the barrel with a little bit of grip from the grooves cut in near there. The grip at the rear is a high level though 🙂

I think these are another superb looking set from Bulls Fighter with a fantastic rear grip section but I thought its another dart made for a rear gripper so looks like us fronties are left out in the cold once again.

But I am pleasantly surprised and happy to say that the darts work great with my front grip, I was really not expecting them to work as nicely as they do but then again it is a straight barrel dart and straight barrels can often work with a lot of grip styles.

I think although the front is not particularly grippy it has that nice little ledge or lip which allows my grip to settle quite nicely there, I think I would like them even more if there was a bit more grip here but the little grooves/notches add some rolling resistance but I thing a few thinly cut rings there would make it perfect for me. 🙂

The darts were pretty nicely balanced with my front grip although they flew quite flatish but stable too, so very impressed with them for front grip.

I don’t think the worked that great from the middle for me though, I was half on the smooth part and half on the faceted grip but not sure if that was what was putting me off a little, I never expect to do great with the other grip positions I try but it felt a little strange and although it was not flying terrible I am not too sure about that position, it may be ok if you naturally grip around the centre though.

Trying it from the rear and with my grip fully on the grippy section was a pleasant surprise too though, with that grip I seemed to get a little more velocity behind the dart although strangely it kind of looped more than when I threw it from the front? I think considering I am not a natural rear gripper it flew rather well, should be a great dart for natural rear grippers then! 🙂

So I would definitely recommend it for rear grippers but because it worked so well with my front grip I think fronties should give it try too 🙂

Quality again is faultless and I don’t think I have ever had so many sets from one manufacturer that have been perfectly matched as I have had from Bulls Fighter, I also like the kind of iridescent sheen on the surface of the barrels, its hard to get a pic of it but it has a rainbow effect when the light hits it right, I think its caused by the fine milling lines so probably not intentional but I like it 🙂

Fantastic darts again!
