I had a bad experience with the bow on an inexpensive erhu. The black horsehairs fell apart. Does this erhu have a better bow (maybe white horsehair)?

The bow has white horsehair. It's my first erhu and the only one I've ever used, but I believe it is good quality.

The bow I received with this erhu has white horsehair, and I have had no issues at all with it.

They are white horse hair, I had one hair that was a little loose, the rest were fine.

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.

This is a great bow- This bow is worth more than what I paid for it. I have recommended this bow to all my friend whether they are a beginner shooter or avid hunter.

I would not recommend this one. We bought so many of them last year as Christmas gifts, and 75% of them have already failed. By the BLACK Xhose instead. I've had NO problems with this one, which is heavier duty, and a larger circumference, and also has very sturdy metal connections that are brass.

It's a great bow, but more difficult than a standard recurve bow to string. Recommend getting a recurve bow stringer found in abundance on Amazon. Got one after buying this bow and my son and I now have no problem stringing/unstringing the bow. To do it safely and quickly, I recommend the bow-stringer. Without one, it can be not only difficult, but risky for you and the bow. Get the recurve stringer and make it easy (and safer) for yourself. Good luck!

I need replacements too! My kids loved the bow, and it really is a step above "little kid bows" that can't be aimed or go very far. But the bow strings broke and we need to figure out how to fix it.

Bow seems to be good. It's the feathers on the arrows that start to tear. Still, you can't beat it for the money.

I've used both the 30" shiny black (brand) carbon arrows and the shiny black (brand) premium wood arrows with turkey feathers. Both work fine. I've lost the points of several of the wood arrows in my heavy duty target, but they still pierce the target fine with this bow. If they don't, ten seconds with a sander or even a decent pencil sharpener and you have a perfectly servicable point.

The bow works great. It's tight the first few times, but it loosens. Have fun with it!

It is a good beginner bow for children to learn how to use a compound bow and sights. My nine year old granddaughter was able to use this bow very well. I believe it is worth the money.

I could not answer that, however, for the bow I have I find it ineffective and pretty much useless. Had it on opening day in NH and had it off by the time I hit my tree stand and left it there!

I bought this for my son who has a compound bow and he says it's great for the money. I just called him about a cross bow and he said he thought it would be fine. He really likes it!!�

I am in need of replacement arrows for this crossbow. I'd really like the arrows that originally came with this set because the replacement arrows sold on here don't work, they fall right out of the bow...they aren't designed the way the original arrows are designed. Please help??? Thank you!

My bow is a high country about 15 years old it is set t 50lbs. It absolutely destroys wheen it hits. Yes I reccomend.

This is a great beginers bow but I think your draw length would be too long, you would be better buying one to fit your draw length, bass pro or other bow retail shops like that can help you decide what draw length and what pound draw you can handle

The bow is for basic learning designed for small kids. It teaches basic skills but has no power for hunting or even being used for distant target practice. I would go to any store that sells bows and see if you are strong enough to pull back and hold 25lbs. If you can I would buy a more powerful adjustable bow. If you can't this bow is for you.

Yes, it is much better at cleaning than the bow in my opinion and its adjustable just make sure u buy the right size they adjust down so 10 or lower, 15 or lower and so on. Hope this helps.
