Are these suitable for a traditional bow? And, how do I know which to get, my bow is 28 inch draw, 32 inch maximum, #38 pound draw at 28 inches.

It works great for a traditional bow, I prefer these on my traditional recurve than my compound bow. Hope this helps

Yes! Since it is feather fletched there will be no problem shooting off the hand or off a shelf. For a 28" draw, you'll want 1816 arrows cut at 28", or, if you'd prefer arrows also capable of a longer draw, 1916 arrows cut at either 29 or 30 inches. It's best to find a consistent anchor point, however, or else accuracy will be seriously affected. I would get the 29" arrows at 1916, in case you ever find yourself wanting a higher draw weight. All you have to do is cut them down an inch to 28" and they'll work for up to a 55lb recurve or longbow.

I use the 1816 with a traditional recurve at 38 lb draw. Get them cut to 29 " and put 100 grain points on. I shoot them off the shelf.

I have 2 traditional recurve bows and I've fired over 60 of these arrows through them. One is 25 #and the other is 45#. They fly straighter than any other arrow I've used so far. Hope this helps

Hey Dylan, That bow is probable gonna be way to easy for you to draw...and too small also. A fellow your size (as I am also) Should be drawing around 30 to 31 inches in draw length....and at least 50 lbs draw weight....I prefer the solocam bow types...the ones with one eccentric cam pulley and one very round pulley...these are very stable bows and tend to stay in tune better than the twin eccentric cam bows do... Just about any brand name would work fine...Matthews, Hoyt, Browning, PSE, Bear. This little bow isnt exactly a toy but feels like one in my hand. I would recommend a Matthews solocam bow for you.

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.

Hello Kelly, I have two different bows I had purchased, I believe the bow in question has a 16 lb. draw. I hope this answers your question.

Generally a ten year old would draw 20-22 inches of draw and would be comfortable with a pound pull of under 20 pounds. That means the best poundage bow for your son would be the 24# model. The 24# model is measured at 28 inches of pull therefore at 20-22 inches of draw, that bow would be 15-20 pound pull. These are generalities and you could purchase a heavier model if your son was EXTREMELY stronger than an average 10 year old. Otherwise stick with the 24#.

After looking at several states regulations on bow hunting, the average draw is 35-45 lbs. This crossbow has 175 lbs of draw. I'm sure it will take a deer with no problems. HOWEVER- do consult your state's regulations on using crossbows for big game hunting. Most states allow you to hunt with a crossbow during rifle season but not bow season. Depends on the state and check the regs before going.

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.

what i know of all the nock sizes are the same so u should be fine, just check the draw length of your bow before the arrow is to long or to short.

It would depend more on the bow than the string, but I have this string on my 45 lb bow that we typically over draw a bit closer to 50 lbs.

My advise is to go to a range where they rent bows. Have him try out a few of those to see what his ideal draw weight would be. He would need something that isn't so light that it's too easy, unless he is just starting to learn. Also he would need something that isn't too hard to pull. But starting out at 40 is a bad idea.

I believe it will depend on the length of arrow you order. The are available in 3 different lengths. My son has a shorter draw because he is a smaller person so the 26 inch works great. If you are a teen or young adult you most likely will be using a longer arrow because you have a stronger/longer draw and 30 inches would be okay. If you are hunting game a different bow is most likely in order....these are good for practice targets.

I used these on a 30# long bow, and they are made well, flew straight, and held up well. I did break some of them, but that that was due to operator error, (hitting rocks and such.) I am not familiar with the bow you mentioned but if it's between 20-30# draw weight I would think these arrows will be fine for you.

The draw weight means the amount of force needed to draw the string to its,maximum draw length which in this case is 28" I do believe. If the draw weight is 20 lbs then i would have to excert the same amount of force on the string as i would need to lift a 20 lbs weight. Or, if i tied a 20 lbs barbell to the string of the bow, and lifted it by the handle of the bow then i would draw the bow to the,max draw length. Basically you'd have to pull with 20 lbs of force on the string to draw the bow fully.

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.

It comes with 2 28" arrows so that's what I got when I bought extras. I think the arrow length depends on the draw weight and your draw length, I tried to look up how your supposed to figure it out but I didn't find much. The 28" have worked fine for me and I'm a 5'6 woman.
