I honestly don't know...bought it for my six yr old little girl for xmas so I haven't opened it yet. But I tested it out in a sporting goods store and it felt easy enough for her to draw back.

The draw weight is 15 lbs, 18"draw length, and 25" axel to axel. Pretty small for any older than 6-8 yrs. And no provision for a rear peep to align with front sight. Hope this helps.

Jonathan, 60 pounds might be the draw weight that you are looking for but 60 inches ('') would be one large bow. If you are looking for your draw length, then measure your wingspan and divide it by 2.5. This should get you in the ball park for draw length. Draw weight is the amount of weight you need to get the bow to full draw. This is more of trial and error/what you feel most comfortable with. With this bow you have the flexibility of adjustably to fine tune it to your needs. Best, Bruce

No. These arrows are only rated for bows up to 35lbs. In most states, 35lbs is the absolute minimum legal draw weight for any bow intended for hunting. These arrows also have a basic target point pre-installed. They are great for target practice, but there are so many quality customizable hunting arrows out there that it really isn't worth trying to retrofit these for hunting.

Krystal, The beauty of compound bows is that they offer you something called let-off. This bow has a let off of 70%. This means that once the cams activate (you reach the peak of the draw force curve), you will only be holding a a portion of the weight at full draw. For this bow, you would only be holding about 16.5 pounds at the 55 pound setting. Hope this helps!

The limbs on take down bows like the bullseye can be replaced with longer limbs that increase the draw weight. I believe the longest are 62" with a 30lb pull.

i believe the draw leanth of this bow can go up to 30 or 31. which is perfact for anyone up to 6 foot 3 inches.

Depends on draw length, poundage, and type of arrows used. In the 300+ at 70lbs-30inches with carbon arrows

Hello Vito. The bow belongs to my son and he is 6 foot tall. I am not sure about his draw length, I just know he is very strong. The bow is quite nice if that helps you.Diana Wyatt

Depends on which arrow you use. Average is 333 fps and 180# draw weight. I have one and it's awesome.

Hi B. Carter- I shoot a 80lbs draw weight Mongol recurve horsebow and they do just fine for me. I can't speak for heavier draw weights. Hope that helps. Gary C.

19 - 29 pounds. My soon-to-be 10 year old has this bow and she loves it. For further information about the bow, go to: http://www.barnettcrossbows.com/products/youth-archery/vortex-lite

Unlike a compound bow this recurve does not have a set draw length. The archer holds all of the weight of the draw with no let off. The poundage rating on the bow is typically rated for a 28 inch draw length. The poundage decreases with shorter draw lengths and increases with longer draw lengths. you do not need to know a draw length to purchase this bow. I do have this bow and love it. If you want to put a fast flight string on it you can do that as well. I called Martin Archery to make sure.

I think the minimum draw weight for a hunting bow is at least 45lbs, so no, I wouldn't consider this as a hunting bow..unless just for squrrels or rabbits...but not on a deer.

I've always gone by spine number. The lower the number the stiffer the arrow. Heavier the draw weight of your bow, the stiffer the arrow you need to shoot. A lite draw weight bow can shoot a stiff arrow but a heavy draw weight bow can splinter a less stiff arrow. The 55/70 has a spine numbed of 400 (according to the description). That would be fine for a 55lb pull bow or lighter, but would be minimum stiffness for a 70lb pull bow. I don't have these arrows so I'm just making an assumption that 55/70 is an attempt at telling you what weight bow they should work with. I guess Robert doesn't know what numbers mean ether. He gave a kind of a crappy answer.
