I purchased this set for both my son (9) and my daughter (12). They both can get some impressive distance (30+ feet). It has been a great set for them to learn from and it is of such a good quality that they will be able to use it as they get older.

Our son, 12 yrs old, stands about 15 feet away from a foam target... but it can definitely go farther, depends on the stregnth of the child. Hope this helps!?

I suppose if your child is capable of achieving the maximum pull on the bow, the arrow could fly the distance of a football field.

My six year old has trouble pulling the trigger back to shoot this. Hope this helps.

it is quite heavy but I believe it will help with stability and aiming. Cocking it should not be an issue for a 12 year old. But keep in mind this rifle IS NOT a toy. It is powerful and that is why I bought it. My yard was over run with squirrels. But not anymore!! I hope this helps. Good luck!

I don't know exactly how far it goes, but my best guess is 15-20 feet or maybe a little more. I bought it for my nephew and I've only seen him shoot it a few times.

It only came with 2 bullets and my son states it shoots 40 feet. He loves this one because he can put it in his pants pocket. He wanted to let you know that. He is 11.

Its really good in the 2-6 range, but will work fine up in the teens. 14-16 get pretty hazy though. 16 is barley usable. Great scope for the money though. Mildot comes in handy.

I think this would be excellent for a kid that age because it has such a wide draw and poundage range. It adjusts from a 13 to 30 inch draw and from 5 to 70 pounds so it can even grow with them as they get older. I love my bow like this and recommend it for any age kid and ladies.

The range is around 10-15 feet.... it all depend on the bow weight and the child size as well the farther back he or she pulls the farther the arrow fly.Remember the arrows are only 18 inches long The same for the deluxe arrows

My 4 year old has shot it. Seems to be a really nice bow. If your youngster is small they may not be able to draw it very easily. My little girl is about 4 1/2 yrs and she is nearly 54" tall and 49lbs. She can draw fairly comfortably but some of my small 4-h kids that are couch potatoes are having trouble with it. For $40 they wont have to wait long if they cannot now.

You may need to load it for the Toddler aged NERF enthusiast. Definitely they will be able to shoot it. The Maverick is a good one for them to grow into!

I bought this for my daughter who was 8 last Christmas. It was perfect for her. It shoots 30 to 50 feet. It is a real bow, just sized for a child. Hold this helps.

Pumping is not an issue, not sure how well it will take out varmets, as my 7 year old hasn't shot at any yet been working on targets for right now

I bought it for my 11year old son and he loves it, I can say I think it is perfect for him, target and small rodents. As long as they've been to follow good gun safety

Not very much past 10-15 yards. My son uses this gun and put a small red dot on it.

We have 8 ft ceilings & it's definitely enough room to shoot. After the hype, kids don't play too much but it's definitely a hit when other kids are here :)

a little much for our 4 yr old grandson, shoots about 30 yrds. Great for a beginner, your son would probably outgrow it

I think it would be ok for a while for some back yard target practice. It a decent bow and can be adjusted up in poundage. My 10 year old handles it well. I guess it mostly depends on what u plan to do with it. If it's hunting is say no.
