40" Youth Bow and Arrow Set for Kids 8-12 & Teens - Ambidextrous Recurve Archery Gear with Safety Arrows - Toys for Ages 8-13, Backyard Games Gift for Beginner Archers

This set is a great way for kids to learn how to use safely a bow and arrow. This one is durable and functions very well. It is the perfect size for our teenagers to learn with. We love the carrying case and the way it all fits without moving around. The bow itself was easy to string and has good elasticity, the arrows are nice and sturdy and stick well into the haystacks.

Great gift

Good beginner bow, breaks down for easy transport/storage

My daughter (9) wanted this for her birthday and we were hesitant about it. After we got it and she opened it, I was surprised to find how quickly she picked it up! It was easy to set up and everything fits/stores together which is very important. We got a foam target as well and she was able to play with it outside and do target practice. We're still working on our skills but she loves how it works and that there are a few arrows versus just one or two to practice with. She has so much fun playing with it!

Very fun gift for my nephew, he’s become somewhat of a virtuoso with the bow, he’s so great even at long range now! This has been such a great and fun toy that gets him outside more and focused

We purchased this set because our grandson was interested in learning archery.I give this three stars since it is mostly well made, but because of the problem described below, it is not usable for someone who really wants to start learning how to do archery correctly.The problem is how the arrows are fletched (the placement of the "feathers").The fletching is spaced evenly around the shaft of the arrows, which is good. However, the "feathers" are made of vinyl and have been crushed in the shipping package. Being bent causes the arrows to fly crookedly. It may be possible to warm up the vinyl and straighten these out. I haven't been able to do that yet.However, worse than that, the feathers are misaligned relative to the nock (the part of the arrow that fits over the string). Arrows are supposed to be made so that, when placed on the string, the odd colored feather sticks straight out sideways away from the bow. This allows the arrows to fly straighter and more consistently. Since these feathers are not arranged that way, they bump against the bow when released and fly crookedly and at unpredictable angles.This second problem with the arrows is not fixable. It could have been avoided by simply gluing the nock aligned in such a way as to have the fletching have the correct orientation.In order for our grandson to progress and actually learn how to shoot, we are going to have to purchase new arrows.

Good product - lots of fun for kids and safe if playing outdoors with no one in range of arrow.

Great gift for my nephew! Light weight and easy to assemble. Safety features. Very durable and has a far shoot Very functional and fun for a young person.
