ABSTRACT:
A dart is made with a body that breaks away from the point upon impact and/or vanes or flights that break away from the body upon impact. The objective is to minimize the size of the embedded dart in a target so that subsequent darts can be thrown to the high score area of the prior darts. The breakaway is accomplished by relative movement upon impact between point and body and by the force of gravity breaking apart a magnetic hold between body and point. Springs are also used to separate the point and other parts and/or to hold the point in projected position during flight and to allow telescoping upon impact.
