Strategy
A high-pressure checkout. Hit T20, T20, D18 in sequence. Focus on the trebles first — if you miss, you may still leave yourself a workable finish. If your T20 lands in S20, you're left on 136 with 2 darts to go. A miss sideways into the 5 or 1 segments changes the equation significantly. If your T20 lands in S20, you're left on 76 with 1 dart to go. A miss sideways into the 5 or 1 segments changes the equation significantly. You'll encounter 156 frequently in competitive 501 and 301 play.
Alternative Routes
The standard route T20 → T20 → D18 is the most commonly used combination for 156.
Pro Tip
D18 is positioned between D1 and D4 on the board. Practice this specific double to build confidence for match situations.
