do these bows actually work really good?

BE AWARE!!!!! The Rack DOES NOT include the bows or the arrows!!! I was misinformed and thought so too...

I have to say if you thought for $37.46 that it came with bows and arrows you know nothing about the price of those objects. Those bows average around $150-200 a piece and the arrows at least another 50 dollars. Do not blame the description, if your really into Archery you would know the prices of those objects and be able to tell that they are not included with the rack.

I actuallyHad to return this order because I received the wrong product. I did not take the risk of ordering again.
273252
fyi...this is just the rack. The description would lead you to believe this includes the bow and arrows but it does not.

you are buying the rack that holds the bows not the bows, and no its a cheap rack that i sent back twice

They should be fine ... not an expert... seems like nocks would be compatible with all bow strings.... shaft will crack and splinter into stringy fiber spaghetti if you try to remove imbedded arrows from solid materials (tree stump) if you have a soft target get these ... economical i thought... they do seem to fly true although i have not tested them long range. Pretty wicked looking arrows

They are tough arrows, they are all I shoot, I've had a couple of fletchings come lose from arrows passing through a foam target, but only after about 10 shots, for the price you can't go wrong, if you mess some up just buy more... For my shooting preferences they are the perfect weight arrows/bolts...

Yes! Amazing Target Arrows. They are very well constructed, balanced and spot on sure.I am ordering another set. I only shoot wooden arrows. I have had several dozens made. However, these are by far the best I've ever used....

I shot them at targets plenty of times, the only down side is that you will dull the arrows. Note they are not razor sharp to begin with. If shooting at a target make sure that behind it is not a hard surface, the Arrows are wood and will break if they hit a brick or somthing of that density.

I've used both the 30" shiny black (brand) carbon arrows and the shiny black (brand) premium wood arrows with turkey feathers. Both work fine. I've lost the points of several of the wood arrows in my heavy duty target, but they still pierce the target fine with this bow. If they don't, ten seconds with a sander or even a decent pencil sharpener and you have a perfectly servicable point.

Hi Michael, yes they work just fine and i like the sound a lot, but if you will treat them rough you will fnd sooner or later that they break down on the hinges, i guess that if i did not take them out to "band" practice they should have last a lot more that they didbest regards

They will work on recurve and long bows. The nocks were a little tight for my strand size of 16, but I just sanded the space in between.

Yes. Well cut and tapered, they fly well. I use them with a longbow and a recurve. I like the points as well, although they could be a bit sharper for my taste. I honed the edges a bit extra and they are perfect now, or at least to my liking!

Yes. These are for target shooting. Their very tough and can take quite a lot of punishment if you don't "jerk" the arrows out of a bag target (I use a block target, you don't lose points) instead of just trying to snatch these old school arrows out of a target, pull it out until it stops, then waggle it back and forth, and when you see the point, give it a twist! It'll come right out. These are the best wooden arrows for a long or recurve bow. Great price. Beautiful. And if you'll put a bit of Tough as Nails fingernail polish or some such at the critical points, they become just about indestructible. I've got some that I've shot literally hundreds of times! Yes.

definitely work on a recurve crossbow' s string. My husband added them to his recurve bow and I have them for mine. He shoots more than I do and he hasn't commented on the speed of his arrows changing at all since he added the beaver balls to his bow string.

They belong to my daughter. None have broken. She loves them. I don't know about the bow question.

Yes. They will work with virtually any bow. But arrow applicability is more about the size of the shooter rather than the bow.

They have target tips on them. I used these arrow for ceremonial pieces for Cub Scouts. They are beautiful and the fletching is done correctly and well. The target tips are attached well. However, please note that I did not actually use them for target practice. It is possible that the tips may lose strength overtime.

For sure--I have bought several of these bows for Boy Scouts and adult leaders to use because we have a set of six targets set up for archery. They have proven to be very functional and fun.

I have a large bag of bows in this bag and none of the bows seem to get crushed. I guess it depends on the type of bows. I just use the cheap Christmas ones you find in every store. It might also depend how packed your bag is. I don't overstuff this one. Hope this helps.

Yes I do. I have had no trouble with them being out of balance. When I shot my crossbow out they were nearly right on. I is likely a combination of the crossbow (wicked ridge) and a good arrow. Hope this is a help. I would recommend them.
