budget archery starter for kids
My 7 year old is loving this. He's done it consistently in the afternoons for at least twice as long as I thought he would.Sure, its not great, but its under $50. 3x he's been out for over an hour (supervicsed). He exhausted his draw arm the first day. That's 15$ a session, and not indoors on a screen. We're outdoorsy types to begin with.Top, bottom, and grip... slot each into the grip, and the string (adults...) loops over one end, and you have to apply a decent amount of pressure to slot the other end.It is reasonably stable in this manner to not worry about things popping out. The kids probably should NOT be messing with the string attachment under this pressure (its not much, but you'll get a bad whap out of the tip).You are not going to get into the Olympics practicing with this, but I can already tell that in a year I'll be buying a much more expensive set of better quality materials that costs a pretty penny BUT I WILL KNOW HE USES IT! It'll probably coincide with whenever the arrows break. I have him shooting a cardboard box filled with flattened cardboard boxes, but you know some of these hit dirt, compacted dried Texas dirt, paving stones, the damned tree, he's managed to accidentally miss the box and hit the poles on the playground equipment.... so far no damage to the blunted arrows, and they don't penetrate the cardboard as much as I thought they would.Only bummer is 4 targets were included, but we have plenty of targets, and paper and cardboard to make more.So far, the forearm guard has either worked well, or he's managed to not slap his arm. Either way, he puts it on every time and has not injured himself.The quiver.... comes with a nylon strap and buckles to make this "useable..." but the belt loop on the quiver makes it nearly perpendicular to the ground. Its not great, and I wish they'd have left it out and made the price lower. Or even made the cost up to 35.Worth it. When I first pulled it out of the box I was hesitant.... but seeing the progress.... NICE!

A Lot of Fun
I did some archery lessons almost 30 years ago. Remembering how difficult it was, I felt the itch to have another go so I got this. Yeah, I know…. It’s for kids. But that’s ok. I have a 60 ft long garden with a 7-foot fence at the back. I don’t want a particularly powerful bow, just something fun with which to test my skill. The bow comes in three parts with a quiver of arrows. Assembly is straightforward, it just slots together and the strength of the string holds the bow together. The only issue I had was a small bag of metal parts that make up the adjustable sights to adjust height for the range you are shooting. There were no instructions, so I had to search online to figure out which side to mount it on. It only took a couple of minutes. There are paper targets, but you need something to mount them on. I had a large cardboard box I used.This is a proper bow. The arrows, though not sharp could still cause significant injury if an arrow hit someone. Not a toy smaller kids should be using unsupervised. The arrows fly true and go straight through the cardboard box but have lost most of their power on their journey through. Range of 60 feet is easily surpassed at full draw.It was a lot of fun, and a good reintroduction to archery at a very affordable price. Everything in the kit is solid and works well. Makes me appreciate how skilled you have to be to do this well.

Ok for toy but not for practice
The Bow and Arrow Set for Kids is a solid starter kit for youth interested in archery, including a 45” bow, 9 arrows, targets, an arm guard, a quiver, and a sight pin. While it’s well-equipped, the set is not ideal for very young children due to its weight, which makes it challenging for smaller kids to handle. The bow is quite heavy, and the lack of accuracy in aiming can be frustrating for beginners. Despite being durable and well-made, the set is better suited for older kids or teens who have more strength and are looking to practice archery casually. A lighter, more precise option might be more suitable for younger beginners.

Decent bow
Great tinker bow for the backyard. It was very easy to set up and go, My daughter was very happy and we enjoyed taking turns. It came with everything that we needed to just get and go. I highly recommend this for anyone starting up before investing serious money into it

Decent starter recurve bow
This recurve comes separated in a small box. The assembly is very easy. The bow limbs simply slide into the bow neck and the string goes on over the limbs with a little effort. Once it's together, it'd be very difficult for a child to take it back apart. The bow itself can be used by a left or right handed child for training purposes. The bow sight screws into the sight slot easily, though without a peep or kisser, I highly doubt the sight on it would server much purpose for a kid. The arm guard will help prevent their forearms with getting hurt with the bowstring twanging across them. The arrows it comes with are long enough for any kid to pull this bow back to its maximum draw length. The quiver works, but I'd hardly call it quality. It looks more like a sheath for a machete than it does an arrow quiver. It also comes with a handful of targets for practicing. It's nice for a small child to learn, but it's not anything high tech by any stretch. You get what you pay for. My kid is enjoying it so far and at worst he's building muscle with it to upgrade to a more sensible bow.

Flawed design
Since this bow is designed to be right or left handed, there in an inherent flaw in the design. Since the bow string sits dead center in line with the grip, this bow will never shoot true. I am right handed, so where the arrow rests, is always just left of dead center, and the nock will be dead center on the bow string causing the arrow to fly left. The opposite will happen if you shoot left handed. It can be compensated for when aiming, but the further the shot, the more this is exaggerated. Otherwise, I like this bow. The arrows are decent quality, the armguard is ideal for kids, mine is 9yo and fits perfect. The quiver is adequate, and the targets that come with are also nice to get you started. Due to the design I wouldn't recommend.
