chrisw08 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I bought a recurve bow around 25 draw weight and 28 inch draw length. What kind of arrows can i buy under $7 that are fit to be at a light weight for target practice at my draw weight. I do know what arrows work for lighter bows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaypo Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I had to buy youth arrows. I have a 45lb English Longbow (73 inches!). I have no arrow shelf, so I shoot off of my knuckle. The bowyer said that for it to shoot correctly, I needed arrows with a spine set for a bow 10 lbs less than my draw weight because of the flexion of the arrow off of the bow. The only ones I could find without having them made were youth arrows. They shoot fine! Now, my bowyer hand crafts arrows for any bow. He does beautiful work. I think they're around $8.00 each. I can give you the website if you like. Seek Perfection of CharacterBe FaithfulEndeavorRespect othersRefrain from violent behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaypo Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 The school I train in is Sen Sha Do Karate Do with Sensei Greg Shands. He is a 2nd dan in Shorin Ryu and a 2nd dan in Shotokan. He lived in Okinawa for years while in the military, and he trained while there. We also train techniques from Jiu Jutsu, Kenpo, and Tai Chi.
