Best Dartboards for Your Game Room – The wire scoring ring that you see on a lot of dart boards is usually referred to as “the spider.” It is a way to make clear exactly where you hit by separating the scoring sections in an obvious way. There are a number of ways this can attach to your board and several design features to keep in mind.
Less expensive boards will often just staple the spider to the board which is effective, but has two drawbacks: it is more metal in places that you could be scoring with your dart and it makes it harder to adjust the spider.

Much like the rotating center of the wooden dart boards above, being able to adjust the spider means that you’ll be able to more evenly distribute damage. Just because of the nature of the game, some sections will be hit more often than others. Being able to easily remove the spider means you can rotate the board and put less damaged sections in the higher percentage spots.
Top end boards tend to have staple-free spiders that attach to the dart board in a variety of ways. They also use super thin wires that are shaped like triangles instead of cylinders. The reason why this is good is that thick, cylindrical wires tend to make a dart that hits it bounce. Triangular wires will instead guide the dart into the board.
