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.

The weight is measured at 28" draw for all and I draw 31.5' on the 62". Being instutional bows, they have a wide draw range. Call Bear if it's a concern.

I just got one of these about a month ago and it came with the 20" arrows not 22". Also it came with a quiver that was not magnet quick detach. So I'm guessing this is a older lot. I can say that I haven't had any issues with scratching the stock when cocking or a loose foot stirrup. I would order some custom arrows from Jerry at south Shore archery though. I tried the 20" head hunters and a pack of easton 22" devastators but you will likely find that a few arrows will fly together and a few will fly together just in a different spot. Jerry will spine index all his arrows so this shouldn't happen. They could just need nock tuning also but she's a great shooter. Did I mention it is quit compared to some others. I would buy again if I didn't have the money for a scorpyd. Hope this helps.

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'm not sure if the 28" fiberglass arrows would be good for a long bow. My knowledge of archery equipment is very limited. I sent those arrows to my son who is shooting them with an old 35 pound fiberglass bow. I think the bow is a cross between a re curve and a long bow. I wouldn't use them with a heavier bow because they are a low velocity arrow for low draw weight bows. A guy I work with, who knows about these things, said if you used those arrows with a compound bow with a 60# draw they would shatter while going through the arrow guide and possibly cause an injury. My son says they work good with his bow but could be a couple inches longer. I'm not sure if the 28" fiberglass arrows would be good for a long bow. My knowledge of archery equipment is very limited.

I didn't know, so I chose the medium one, as what most people do when cannot decide; but it fit my bow perfectly. I have a Martin saber takedown recurve, 64" in length, using 28"arrow

I prefer a 30 inch arrow. Easton makes several that are great for this bow.

31 1/2 " These are the only arrows I use. I don't get mine cut because I like the length(I have a 30" draw) you can get them cut at any sporting good store that sells arrows.

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.

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.

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.

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

15 inch or longer if you want. I suggest the cheap aluminum ones for target practice just use the tips on them. If your going to use the bow to hunt then I guess I would use the expensive tips and arrows. I just use mine for target shooting unless your Bill Gates you'll go broke hawing the top of the line bolts and heads.

It comes with two 27 inch arrows. They could be considered 28" but that's if you measure tip to knock. They are a pretty good size. I bought some 26" arrows and they're just a tad too small.

I am not an expert, but I would follow the recommendation for 22 inch bolts. My son and I both have this bow and love them. We have each harvested a deer nd the bows have worked flawlessly.

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)
