Archery Bamboo Arrows, 32 inch Traditional Hunting Practice Target Arrow 5" Turkey Feathers Fletching Recurve Bow Longbow(Pack of 12)

I have ordered a lot of arrows online lately and most I have to send some back. this set was great.

point starting falling off after minimal use, you should re-point these.

I've been shooting recurve for a few years using carbon arrows and thought I would give these a try. They looked cool, but right away i noticed that they didn't shoot as straight as carbon, requiring quite a bit more of a arc to hit my target at 30 yds. Carbons are pretty easy to Hitler Target at 30 yards without much if any arc. With my target sitting on a stump my first handful hit the stump rather than Target, breaking as easy as pretzel sticks when I pulled them out of the stump.After going through the first half dozen that way, one of the arrows exploded upon release bruising my bicep with the string and sending bamboo shards everywhere except downrange. I went through and did a bend test on the remaining 6 arrows, to find that all but one were severely cracked lengthwise. Nearly all of them had hit a foam Target or the dirt Mound behind the target.I had also assumed that the 32 inch measurement would be the standard measurement which is from the back of the point to the throat of the nock. The draw length seemed shorter as I was drawing so I got the measuring tape and found that they were 32 in from the front of the tip to the end of the knock, eventually taking away 4 inches of arrow and reducing my draw length noticeably.I've been throwing the arrows in the trash as they've all broken, just assuming that I'm getting the bad ones out of the way.. but as far as I can see every arrow in this batch is going to be a bad one, so I won't bother trying to return.In one week I have gone through a dozen, and still have a couple dozen left. I may keep shooting them and checking for damage between rounds or I may put them aside for a smaller bow, but with the ones that have already broken and thrown in the trash I'm not even going to bother putting in for a return but I wanted to let any serious archers know that these are not reliable, they're not accurate, they break easily, and could potentially cause damage to your bow or body.Guess I'm back to carbon arrows as my mainstay.

Great arrows.Although don’t count on every single one being perfectly straight. With any wood or bamboo arrows there will be some inevitable variation, however enough were good that I’m satisfied with price, shipping speed, look, and performance. I’ve bought 24 and about four I’ve set aside for less than satisfactory performance.

While these arrows looks may be great, their quality is lacking. After 2 shots, using a 45 pound recurve(well in the recommended draw weight range) 8 of the12 arrows started having issues. 4 of them had the rubber coverings in front the fletching come loose(wasn't glued at all), exposing the fletching for 1 to have the lower half of the fletching to be ripped off on release on 1 arrow. The other 4 arrows had the wrapping around the nock come unraveled. After 2 shots, only 4 of the 12 are unscaved. Do not buy these arrows!

These are not the best arrows out there, but for their price, they are wonderful. All twelve were straight, the fletching in excellent condition, with no visible dings, scratches, or damage in any way. Very uniform in construction and quite frankly, very beautiful in aesthetic as well.

Definitely durable. I shoot these from a 50# recurve bow. I straighten them where they are a bit crooked using heat. I think it is neat they are made from bamboo.

These arrows are of terrible quality and easily break. I returned them via UPS on 2/01/2019 with the return label provided by PG1ARCHERY. I have the tracking number and proof they were returned. PG1ARCHERY charged my credit card $54.99 on 3/24/2019 stating they never got them. I have proof they were delivered. I am reporting them to the BBB.
