How long does the arrow have to be? I want to get the bear archery arrows but I'm not sure if I should get the 26", the 28", or the 30"

28" inch arrows seems to work best, I wouldn't go less than that. 30" might be good except more of the shaft would stick out the end. In Competition only the 28" would be used anyways. These bows are used and recognized by most all school archery classes and competitions. They like 28". hope this helps you.

The arrow length depends on your draw length. You can go to Dick's Sporting goods and they will custom cut them for you.

I hope this helps... I bought the 6 - Pk. Easton Genesis II Arrows. They are 30" long not including nok and point.

I'm 12 and I bought one of these a couple of months ago. There is no set arrow length for age groups. It depends on his/her arm length for me my arrows are 27''.

If the bow that your 6 year old is shooting has an arrow rest, go with the 28" or even the 30" that way you wont have to renew these arrows when he gets a little older. If he is shooting a traditional type of bow like low poundage youth longbow without a Modern style arrow rest then go with less then 28" coz aiming with longer arrows is more difficult & ruins posture & learning technique. Although 27" is quite ideal for kids less than 10 years of age, for the bad quality of the fletchings on these arrows & taking into account that the arrows from this seller does not come in 27" I would recommend getting 27" arrows from Another seller. Hope that helped.

Hello Bobby - it looks to be 56" according this page: http://www.3riversarchery.com/bear+60%26quot%3B+super+kodiak+recurve_i20201X_baseitem.html, please verify the brace heigth. Generally you're looking at 3 1/2 to 4" less than the bow length.

I have an old Bear Bow which had a much bigger thread size. I added a threaded sleeve.. The rod threads is a standard for most newer compound bows!

I purchased a set of 12 28" inch arrows for my son and they worked great with this bow.

I am probably not going to be much help here. The size I believe goes with the size of the arrow shaft. I bought this item for my wife and I just made a guess at which one she needed. I went with medium. I know trophy ridge has a website with size you would need for the arrows you use. Again I know that wasn't much help, sorry.

I cut my arrows an inch longer than my draw length, I have a 26.5" draw length (I stand 5'5"), so I cut my arrows at 27.5"

The bow is 34" & I thought the 12" arrows would be a little short so I got the pack of 18". It was a good decision. The 12s can be used but the 18s are better.

I noticed you were getting a wide range on answers so I measured several just now. I measured 32 1/4 on each.I received my arrows last month, so the seller may have shipped shorter arrows earlier? Hope this helps

In order to answer that you must know what is the arrow length requirement for those other crossbows. If they require a longer arrow, you might run into trouble. The minimum arrow length required should be the distance from the point where the arrow is butted against the cocked rope to just over the end of the rifle.

They come with 28" fiberglass target point arrows, which are okay but you would probably want to buy more of the same that come in a 3-pack. I personally would recommend buying some 30" carbon arrows. I find that the 28" arrows when pulled to full extension falls a little behind on the arrow rest. You want the head of the arrow overlapping the arrow rest at least 2 inches. Also the carbon arrows fly a lot better. They don't bend and flail when shot as the fiberglass arrows do.

It's the diameter of the arrow if u know that little about it go to a bow shop and ask them what size arrows u need for ur draw length and bow poundage. U will have to go back to get your arrows cut down and inserts put in.

The 28" would definitely be a better fit for you than the 36". I'm 5'8", and had always used a 36" ax. We get cord wood delivered, but the firebox in our fireplace is small so I would use the old ax to split the larger pieces. I always had a fair number of misses or poor strikes and just figured it was my skill level. In short, the old ax is good enough to get the job done. In contrast, the 28" ax makes splitting wood fun. My swing feels more natural, I'm rarely missing, and I can split more wood in less time.

"Arrow spine weight must match or be higher than bow weight." The draw weight of the bow in question is: 15 to 20 pounds. Draw length: 15 to 20 inches.The bow features durable composite limb and riser construction and measures 26 inches from axle to axle. Constructed of fiberglass, the Safetyglass arrows offer high flexing qualities and will not splinter. My guess is yes, you can use these arrows, since they come with the bow. I guess you would get the 26" arrows. The description is a little vague, but I notice that these arrows are commonly purchased together with the bow in question. The final question is what length of arrow do you get? 26" seems a safe bet. Or higher, 28" to 30" since "Arrow spine weight must match or be higher than bow weight." i would buy the bow and see what arrows come with it before ordering more, or else contact the company directly and ask them, since the info does not appear to be on Amazon.

I like the bow very much but there is no way it has the draw weight of a 30 pounds. I don't know why a description would say that, but it does vary a bit with the arrow length. Shorter arrows require slightly less force since you are not drawing the bow as far. Great bow, though.

Its Perfect for 30"-34" arrows they stick out about 8" at the top. I have 9 arrows in mine and its perfect, I recommend buying it since its cheap and a great all around quiver, very adjustable.
