Abstract: A dart (10) of a dart game provides a freely rotatable and reciprocating biased point (11) with a tip (12) that, when the tip (12) hits a wire mesh (W) on a normal dart board or target (T), this causes the point (11) to reciprocatingly collapse or migrate into the dart barrel (18) but due to the forward momentum of the flight of the dart (10) the forward momentum urges the tip (12) off of the wire (W) and causes penetration of the tip (12) into target (T) thereby eliminating, or reducing substantially, incidents of direct hit of the dart tip (12) on the wire (W) whereby the dart (10) would bounce off the dart board or target (T) onto the ground with no points being awarded for the shot. The free rotation of the point allowed, when that point is penetratingly resting in a target, the body of that dart rotates out of the path of travel of an oncoming dart, should the oncoming dart hit the flight or even possibly the barrel of the penetrated dart.
