I'm having a lot of trouble with darts. I can get upwards of around 1,500 points, but my pulse is off the charts by that point, making the remaining points that I need virtually impossible to earn. Does anyone have any tips as to how to beat Richard's score?

It is all in the timing. Only pull the aim trigger when you know the reddot will show. I aim for 20X 3 until the bonus shots come then go for the highest number and hit the X3 part and you will get Times 5 for the bonus I think.

I don't know man, my sweet spot for darts is two to three beers.  I play darts from time to time, but I never do points. I just play where everybody has to hit the 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, and the bullseye three times each. But the little rings can give you multipliers of 2 or 3.

" @kevinski:  Here's what worked for me.  First of all, the dot is ever so slightly off and your dart will land a tiny bit lower than where it's showing.  Secondly, when you pull the trigger to focus, you will always hit the exact same spot.  Every single time.  This should limit the amount of time that you need to focus in general, so take a few seconds to find the triple twenty at the beginning and the next time, hold the trigger for just a moment and the fire.  You'll hit the sweet spot.  Take the time to fine tune your triple twenty and then the triple score of the bonus zone and you should get it right away.   "

"Dude, that's called Cricket in case you were curious.  A lot easier than explaining it."

hit the bullseye with your last shot. it gives you x10.

Also, don't focus your shot until the red line appears, and unfocus if it disappears. I noticed Brad wasted a lot of his pulse gauge that way.

Zoom in only on bonus shots.
