GPP 28-inches Fiberglass Archery Target Arrows - Practice Arrow or Youth Arrow for Recurve Bow

2024 update, after light use, some of the fletching is broken and the notches broken. Lost half of them, and half of them still in action with DIY Larp arrows installed instead of the pointed tip. They were affordable and durable and really packed a punch. same price as in 2018To make a LARP arrow, Used a heat gun to soften the glue and remove the metal tip. Then (I didnt have money to buy metal tips with screw on foam tips) covering the tip with a penny, and then adding two types of foam, first a dense foam like pool noodle, wrapping it all in duct tape to secure. Then, a soft density foam (like mattress foam) for the tip. Used for years at summer camp for affordable fun! Thank you!

Good cheap beginner arrows. The notches are a bit tight, but they worked well for my cheap beginner bow. Good visibility compared to competitors.

I bought these arrows mainly because they were the cheapest I could find. I just started getting into archery during the pandemic. Anyway, these are great for beginners and experienced archersGood: Cost and visibility (finding missed arrows) durability (within reason)Bad: Tips come of, check tips before use and crazy glue then on. Vanes wrinkle extremely bad if they go completely through the target. Nocks are glued over the shaft. This did ruin a felt arrow rest on the shelf.Overall these arrows are good for starting out and learning archery. As far as accuracy I can't say because just starting out my shot were all over the place.

Bought these for my son to replace the very poor fiberglass arrows that came with his beginners recurve bow. The nocks are sturdy and none have broken as of yet. The fins are made of plastic, and they have a tendency to deform after some use or while laying up against something else in storage. This was easily corrected by dipping all of the fins of an arrow into near-boiling water. The more stubborn fins that were bent while passing through a box target needed to be soaked in hot water followed by a press between a couple of flat boards to straighten them out. Overall, good arrows for the price for beginners and junior bows.

I am a beginner when it comes to practicing archery, I bought these arrows and they work exactly how I wanted them to. I have a make shift target that is a cardboard box filled with other cardboard boxes, behind the target I have a large piece of particle board that is used to prevent any arrows from flying off. That being said, at first many of my shots were off target and the arrows were hitting the particle board/wooden structure behind the target. They held up decently but eventually did end up losing their tips and fletching. However, none of them broke in half or bent in the time i used them. I just ordered a 2nd set and am looking forward to destroying these as well! These arrows are great for beginners as they are cheap and somewhat durable depending on what exactly you are shooting into. I still have 4 arrows of the original 12 I ordered and have gotten much more accurate so they are not breaking as often.

It's an arrow, it was for my ten year old to get some practice with. The shaft and point/arrow head joints strong but after a few uses , the fletchings come unattached from the shaft, not sure if it's the adhesive but i ran my finger over one and it just peeled back. They are cheaper arrows, so I don't know what I was expecting.

It will be used to teach my Grandson basic fundamentals of Archery.Looks good on first inspection . From experience, the weak points in a glove of this type is (1.) the leather finger sleeves. Cheap leather will harden and crack. This cannot be reversed.(2.) second is the elastic band. Cheap ones will get hard and brittle.I’ll use it a while and report back.

These were bought for my now 13 yr old high functioning autistic son. While he made his other arrows last a good long 6 months. They started to wear, bend, and become unsafe. So I bought these. Thinking they were close enough. Right away the first day 5 broke the tips right off and he did not even get to shoot them. 3 the yellow placer broke just as it shot off the wire. So I was not happy he got a lot of duds. I had to scatter to figure out a remedy to fix the meltdown. He was so mad he tossed down his bow and ot cracked. I had ended up at big 5 paying 80 bucks for the only arrows in stock. And 105 force bow. So I wasted money here and there.. but they work still and none broke. So no I would not recommend these. It has taken me a while to even want to review them as I was so mad over this. It broke his heart to not have his favorite bow and arrows to play with. And cost me way more out of pocket thinking these would even be any value .. how could you sell such things that are broken before you get them then break easy when you use them.. I know my son is careful as he took mad care of his first set so long till I found them unsafe to play with. Oh and one sparked when it was leaving the bo it sparked how on the world.
