Stephen Bunting (born April 9, 1985 in Liverpool , England ) is an English darts player . His nickname is "The Bullet".

In January 2014 he became world champion at the British Darts Organization (BDO). With 7: 4 he won in the final against the Englishman Alan Norris . A few days after winning the title, Bunting moved to the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC). After the PDC World Darts Championship 2015 he was able to take part in the Premier League Darts 2015 with a wildcard , where he finished 8th.

His earlier break-in music, Surfin Bird, was a nod to his resemblance to the cartoon character Peter Griffin from Family Guy , as this is Peter's favorite song.
