A Commitment to Craftsmanship

All SHOT darts are designed and manufactured in a small workshop in Katikati, New Zealand. It was founded in 1970, after its owner, John McCormack, began making darts locally after port strikes halted sport imports. Over 50 years later, SHOT darts are still handmade in this factory, with a keen focus on quality, consistency, and precision.

Partnering with the Best

SHOT Darts has forged partnerships with some of the world’s top darts players, including Michael Smith. These collaborations allow the brand to gather valuable insights from professional players and incorporate their feedback into the design and development of new products.

Innovation and Tradition

SHOT Darts has a long history of innovation. The brand has continuously pushed the boundaries of dart technology, introducing cutting-edge designs and materials. Each dart undergoes rigorous quality control, from initial in-house barrel design to final packaging. Meticulously crafted, each dart undergoes a series of processes, including CAD, precision CNC machining, milling, grooving, shaping and enrobing of colours and coatings and various quality assurance testing steps. With a lifetime warranty on tungsten barrels, SHOT Darts is committed to long-lasting quality.
