   Great bow. Was missing quiver though. :/

   I got this bow because anyone can shoot it. The design is simple, yet strong. I have a 30″ draw. At that draw length I measured a 40lb pull weight. The supplied string gives a brace height of 5 3/4 inches. I shot it ALOT and never had the string hit my arm. The camo finish in the photo is simply camo duct tape. A heat gun was used to smooth the transitions. No bow is complete without arrows. The 2 included arrows are 30″ long with 3″ vanes. They weigh in at 545 grains. Using a chronograph these arrows travel at 132 Feet Per Second. That’s 21 FT-LBs. The other 2 arrows (some of mine) with 2″ vanes are 31.5″ long and weigh 400 grains. They travel at 154 FPS. That’s 21 FT-LBs. Now back to the original arrows, the ones that come with the bow. The absolute worst thing about these arrows is the FOC or Front Of Center. Simple definition: FOC means that the front 1/2 of the arrow should be heavier than the back 1/2. Example: The arrows FULL length is 31″. Half of that is 15.5″. FOC should be toward the tip by more than an inch. These arrows FOC are actually a 1/2″ toward the vanes. If it could travel a long way it would eventually turn around and the vanes would strike the target because the back half is heavier. What does this mean for a beginner? It means, depending on distance, the arrows will not hit the target straight. It also means that accuracy will be greatly affected. Don’t expect a Robin Hood with these arrows unless you get lucky because it won’t be skill. I do recommend this bow for a beginner based on cost and draw weight. Just remember to buy some decent arrows.

   For a starter bow, this one is pretty remarkable. The build quality is simple yet solid. It doesn’t have the cheap plastic feel of other starter bows. The arrows are not great but that’s a different matter described below. I have put over 800 arrows through this bow in the last 30 days, and the bow has held up well with almost no visible signs of wear. The only real wear that I can tell is that the handle has started to loosen ever so slightly. The string it came with is also quite decent for beginners, however I did replace it due to a small issue I’ll describe below. The draw weight is 30-35 lbs, which doesn’t seem like much but if you are like me and start with minimal upper body strength, it can still be quite the challenge to hold at the 28″ draw to aim. I practiced drawing for almost a week before I felt comfortable shooting an arrow, and still missed my first couple shots at 10 yards. A month later I feel quite comfortable with the weight and I am eager to move up to a 40-45 traditional bow that I have already ordered. As I mentioned, the arrows that came with this were not great. They are a standard fiberglass 28″ training arrow with a permanently crimped on rounded target tip. The fletching is a standard rubbery “feather” that warped and rippled after a couple dozen shots. One of the nocks snapped after firing it maybe 30-40 times but the other is still intact. Overall they will suffice at the start to get a feel for the bow, but you’ll want to upgrade to aluminum or carbon arrows once you get comfortable firing the bow a few times. I would also recommend getting real feathers instead of rubber, as the feathers are more forgiving when resting an arrow directly on the bow, when compared to a high tech rest typical to compound bows, or more modern target recurve bows. One tip that I gained from another archer on the range is to replace the string with one 2 inches shorter. This pulls the limbs together and extends the distance between the rest and the string, known as the brace height. The main reason this helps is this: When you release the arrow, the string pushes the arrow forward, and the string continues pushing at least an inch or two forward past the string’s resting position. The string that comes with the bow gives it a brace height of approximately 4 inches. As you loose an arrow, the string pushes it forward 2 inches or so, forcing the fletching directly into the rest, and when combined with the stiff rubber fletching, can cause more deflection in your aim than you’d expect. A string 2 inches shorter turns the brace height into approximately 7 inches, giving plenty of room for the arrow to clear the rest and flex normally. The string I purchased was the B-50 Dacron Replacement Recurve Bow String, 58″ AMO length. Be sure to look for AMO vs. Actual length, or you’ll need to research which actual length string you’d need. The bow does come pre-strung. However, if you plan to change the string, or un-string for storage, I would strongly recommend a bow stringer. I purchased the Neet Traditional Long Bow Stringer from gosszy.com and it is perfect for this bow. I will state that I have zero experience with the forearm guard that came with the bow as I already had one I preferred to use, though it seemed to be of decent quality that should be functional enough. While writing this review I notice that it also came with an actual rest point that screws into the bow. I had gotten so comfortable shooting the arrow from the rest point molded into the handle that it became second nature. I will be giving the other rest a try and see how that affects my shooting. This may also change my opinion on the shorter string as the fletching may not bump into this style of rest, and I’ll be sure to test that as well. One point of note, the package claimed to come with a finger/shooting tab, but mine did not have one. I was not concerned because I prefer the Neet Suede Shooting Glove, but it’s worth noting due to the missing item. Overall, I would strongly recommend this bow for any beginner, though I would recommend not much younger than 10-12 (with parental supervision of course!). Don’t let the 30-35 lb draw weight concern you, as that is measured at 28″ and few children would be able to draw that long. At 24″ draw length of a 5′ child, the pull would only be around 20 lbs. At the cost of (at the time of writing) $80, you get quite a lot for your money. The arm guard would be around $8-10 and the rest bolt would be $5, each arrow would be $2-3, which leaves around $60 for the bow itself. Compare to the next cheapest recurve at $100-120 for just the bow and you can see this is quite the bargain for a starter bow to find out how interested you are in the sport like I did.

   I received this today and was super exited and surprised by the fine design but was soon devastated upon realizing they had sent me a bow that had noticeably been warped and both top and bottom tips. Furthermore now I have to pay to have the package returned and dish out a 15% restocking fee for a bow no one will ever want sent to them.

   Very low quality. Not worth the money paid.

   This is the first longbow I’ve purchased, for 64.99 it’s definitely worth it. Its a great shooting bow light weight, 30-35 Ib is perfect for target shooting. Comes out of the box strung with 2 arrows, arm guard, and finger pad. I would spring for a better arm guard, arrows, and leather shooting glove. Definitely might buy another one of these as gifts for family members. Just remember to be careful I was putting arrows through a Styrofoam target and into a 1/2 in piece of plywood, so it’s got some power.

   This set is beautifully done, materials are great and grip is amazing, however the arrows this bow comes with are terrible.

   Keep in mind, I am a beginner, and this was for me to learn, however My girlfriend used to do competition the bow Already Stringed which was a nice surprise It fits comfortably in my hand and is a nice size. I am 6 foot 1 The Finger Tab and the arrows seem to be pretty nice and it’s a very solid feeling bow overall it looks and feels like real wood. I would definitely recommend it for a beginner such as I here are my issues so far the arm guard will not fit if you have large forearms I have pretty average and it’s snug almost too tight is made out of pretty cheep plastic I also seen someone else’s review. They had this issue which was a pretty big one for me. The bow was sticking out of the box when it arrived about just the tip where the string goes on luckily, there was no damage to it overall it looks good. It pulls back smooth, I would definitely recommend it but you’re going to want a new arm guard and probably a couple more arrows but definitely good to start out and see if you like archery
