What length arrow should I use? I ordered the 50 lbs but it doesnt say what it comes with. I wanted to order some practice arrows to go with it.

The arrow length you need depends on your draw length. Draw length is the length from your anchor point to about 1" past the arrow rest. If you look up a few archery websites there is a formula you can use to calculate it but your best to go to a shop with your equipment and have it measured out. The kit comes with 30" arrows.

All I can say is these arrows were purchased for me to use with my 55lb., composite bow. They are 31 inches long and work well with my bow.

Depends on the size of the archer . I think it comes with 26 inch junk arrows. I'd get at least 28 inch. It's a 25# bow so match the arrow spine appropriately. Get feathered arrows, not vaned-it'll tear off the vanes quickly (try the ones that come with it and see)

The other responses are correct, arrow length depends on the draw length. You don't need youth arrows, but you will want them cut to size (don't need to at first as the ones it comes with will work for a first time shooter.) One note though, if you are buying this for a growing youth I would recommend having them be a little longer than an adult setup would usually be. My daughter grew quite a bit in a year and her draw length changed significantly. Now what I usually do is keep any usable, broken arrows that I have for my bow from our target shoots and cut them to length for my daughter. Saves a little money for me and my daughter now had some really nice arrows to use. The other responses are correct, arrow length depends on the draw length.

The size of the arrows does not matter for this bow. They come in several lengths, and as others have said.... The longer arrows are for those who can pull the bow back fully. Several sixes of arrows are sold on Amazon, from this same manufacturer.

Your bow should be fine. I think the response concerning the crossbow was a bit "overstated". I'm shooting a 60# compound w/field tips and they went in 3-5 ". I've taken mine apart after more than 2000 shots and recycled the contents into a replacement bag cover which I highly recommend doing! ;0)

To be honest I just bought 30 length carbon arrows on Amazon here and they fit perfectly. They can get expensive but youtube has a lot company's and custom shafts as well as DIY instructions. Hope this helps.

You want to get a "carbon" arrow with a "300" spine. It won't matter what brand they are. I bought mine at Sportsmans Warehouse, the cheapest ones they had. In late summer/fall, you can find some at Walmart. Just look for the "carbon" arrows that say "5570" on the side, (that translates into 55 to 70 pounds draw weight). I hunt Razorbacks with this bow, and if it can penetrate their hide, it can kill anything. Best of luck.I should also mention that you don't want those cheap bulk no-name arrows from China.

I shot my 50x and never had one stick. I would try holding arrow with a thin piece of rubber and pull like heck. Or try to Manover it thur the back take point of and pull back thur. Sorry but good lick.

You can buy field tips. Also if you shoot at wood you can destroy the arrow. A target would be your best bet. You can pick one up for around $20.

The #25 bow is available in the 62" and the 54" so make sure to order the one you want. For teenagers and adults I recommend the 62".

The arrow that comes with the unit is a 31" carbon. Go to wal-mart or similar store and buy a couple of $3 carbon arrows to practice with. You will break or loose at least one before you get the hang of shooting it.

Dom,You are buying the quiver not the arrows. The arrows are as long as the ones you will have to put in the quiver. I would recommend this quiver. If you dont like a bow mounted quiver or a back mounted quiver with broadheads this hip quiver is great. I have taken it hunting a couple of times and they are really good.

Thank you for your question. I believe the arrow that comes with this product is much smaller than 30 inches. Although I am sure you could try, I do not think the 30 inch arrow would work well with this product. We have one of these left in inventory.Please let us know how we can help.Carrie SimpsonBig Game Gear

Not really. These arrows are much to light for a 40 lb. bow. You need an aluminum or carbon arrow for your bow. The arrow rating is usually shown on the side of the arrow. they are good for a small kids bow as they are cheap enough that you don't care if they get lost.http://www.huntersfriend.com/carbon_arrows/hunting_arrows_selection_guide_chapter_1.htmThat will tell you all about arrows.

My understanding is that the draw weight of the bow is determined by the limbs which are attached. You can modify the draw weight by using different limbs. I bought a set of 30lbs and 55lbs limbs so that I can have my young son use the same bow. We swap out the 55lbs limb for the 30lbs'ers when he wants to shoot. It regards to the description, it was probably just a misprint.

The arrows that come with the bow are 28" long. I DEFINITELY recommend you purchase many extra arrows, since they tend to bury themselves an inch or two into the ground, never to be found again. Good luck!
