Carbon Arrow Hunting Target Practice Arrows 26 28 30 Inch with Removable Tips for Compound & Recurve Bow Spine 500 6/12PCS

I purchased these a while back and have used these arrows multiple times since then. I love them. While they are a bit longer than I need, they are just fine for some fun target shooting. The tip the same size as the shaft so removing them from a target is easy. No snagging. Since my initial purchase I've purchased more. Good stuff!

Arrows came in decent shape. 2 of the 6 were slightly bent. I shot the arrows out of a sling bow which is just under 30 pounds. They flew relatively straight and none of the arrows have broken yet. For the price they make decent arrows for messing around or pest control. I did lose one arrow and I wasn't even upset because of how cheap they were.

Carbon arrows are very light and strong, and these have screw-in tips to change from a field point to different weights of points if you can figure out what might be a better choice than the point supplied. I shot a couple of these arrows as soon as they arrived and they fly straight and both hit the center. But someone assembling them got the nock on at the wrong angle, so you might need to be careful. There are 3 fletchings that used to be feathers, now they're synthetic. Regardless of the material, 2 of these are the same color and the 3rd fletching is always a different color so you know how the arrow fits on the bow. The different colored one is on the outside, while the other 2 are towards the bow. This is so when you "nock" the arrow on the bowstring as you're preparing to draw and shoot it all lines up, because the nock is supposed to be oriented to fit on the vertical bowstring with the different-colored fletching on the outside. But these arrows ALL had been configured so that the nock had been rotated in position and the White fletching was NOT on the outside. Instead, one of the two Red fletchings. ALL of the other arrows I own have the different colored fletching on the outside, making these new arrows a puzzle that you must rotate until the nock goes on the string and DISREGARD where the White fletching is. Early this morning I carefully pulled all the nocks out and reinserted them into the arrow in the best position I could that might be close enough (or I might need to keep doing that until the arrow is correct.) The nock required pulling (I used a small vice-grips, just barely tight: the plastic nock seems very strong and didn't break.) The position the nock WAS in may have been more correct (except for the fletchings being wrong.) I don't know that if in different cultures the fletchings may be the other way, but there is also a package of replacement nocks included, so it might be just a case of adjust to your preference. It's a small thing, that's NOT like it's supposed to be, and no big deal until you try to put the arrow in wrong. So there's nothing wrong with these arrows except you need to adjust them.

Only issue I had was the Knox come out pretty easily but I just Glue them in

Decent carbon shafts on the thick side for a 500 at 7.8 mm OD which we confirmed with digital calipers. Have not verified the 6.2 mm ID and 1.6 mm wall thickness should be about right for this arrow weight. Screw in tips with O rings however, no nock inserts, shaft on plastic nock no shock absorber. Straight fletching which is curled and bent due to very tight packaging. Shot 10 volleys at 40 yards with the Mission Switch 27.5 draw at 40 lbs and well tuned okay best group is the photo. The 4 out of the center ring are not fliers, they shot consistently off. These are NOT as accurate or consistent as the Easton Genesis arrows however, at $2.50 per arrow for these vs $4.99 for the Genesis (yes that's what they cost at our local brick and mortar and at Academy in store and online Amazon way overpriced on Genesis) these are about half the price. Right off, there is NO WAY we would hunt with these. Pros: ●Inexpensive ●Replaceable points ●Decent carbon shafts Cons: ●Inconsistent ●Not as accurate as Genesis ●Fletching material and workmanship not great ●No nock inserts ●Nocks are loose, need a dab of glue Cannot speak to durability as have not had adequate time to assess. Our experience has been aluminum is more durable and survives arrow in target collision better than carbon. Overall, you get what you pay for and these park firmly at 3 stars Genesis being 4 stars with one star off for non replaceable points. UPDATE: We shoot a lot, over 100 shots first dozen of these no issues, they are tough. Refletched arrows that suffered damage with aggressive 3° right helical Easton Diamond 280s as shown in the photo. 50 shots each factory straight vs helical refletched total 100 shots, 20% increase in accuracy at 20 yards. Big improvement, easily as accurate as Easton Genesis.

These are just fine for inexpensive arrows. Fletching is a bit bent out of the box but has improved since being used for a few weeks. Good enough for the price!

Was shipped with care, they are all straight and very clean. Shoots perfect and true.

Bought these for my son who is a new bow hunter as practice arrows. They were very inexpensive, but are decent arrows. I don’t know that we will hunt with them yet. One broke after a few shots, but the other 11 are fine. They fly good and seem well made. The one that broke could have been hit by another arrow. Cheap enough that who cares if you loose/break them while target shooting. And they shoot well enough to dial in a bow and then switch to an expensive hunting arrow and not have to move the sights. They come with field points. If you just need a bunch of arrows, these are a good choice for the right price.
