Kinda cheap and disposable. Fins will rip and tips can fall off. But it does the job. More often we just lost the arrows anyway.

They work well with my daughter's beginner bow.

Nice youth arrow. 26" long, fiberglass with 3" vanes. It's a bit heavy, as fiberglass tends to be, but very durable. I think the 3" vanes may be a bit more than is needed, causing a bit of wobble at short ranges. I did have to fit the nocks to the bow string by removing a bit of material (an emery board works fine for this.) The nocks and target points are booth glued on, so replacing them takes a bit of effort. The shafts are 17/64", with square ends, which is a bit of an odd size. Make sure any replacement points or nocks are designed for square ends (not tapered as aluminum shafts tend to be.)

Good arrows for a light bow

We quit using these and put together a set of wood arrows for my daughter. The wood works better in the smaller recurve bows. We still have the arrows, but a couple of nocks fell off (no biggie), and one looks like it's been in a shredder. All in all, they are ok and probably work well in the lighter compound bows, for recurve find wood arrows.

No problems, seems to be a good combination with the bow. Bit longer than the one with the bore, but stool OK for kids.

I ordered these with trepidation, considering the many negative reviews. We have shot these literally hundred of times each into our stacked cardboard boxes target, and they have been fine. I don't know how they could be much better for our purpose, backyard archery. A good value, they go straight, stick into the target, and have not broke or bent yet. Just get them!

Great for target practice, and the price is right. I bought them for my 12 year old figuring he'd probably break a few but so far he hasn't. He's only shot them 10 times each but they are performing well.

My kids are new to Archery and needless to say were a bit off target with may of their shots to start in very cold weather. Their aim has gotten better and have had no issues with the quality or the beating these have been through so far. After reading some of the reviews I was a bit hesitant but was glad I made my purchase so far.

The good news about Hunger Games is that it's piqued the interest of the sport of archery in young women nationwide (if not worldwide).The bad news about Hunger Games? That interest is having a negative affect on the industry and other buyers in that a company makes an inferior arrow, then parents - not knowing two squats about what a properly constructed arrow is - buy that inferior arrow and leave a good review, leading more parents to buy that inferior arrow, which in turn just convinces companies to continue making inferior arrows.These arrows are absolute junk. The tips are cheap pot metal that can't hold a point and are much too wide. The cheaply glued on nock is a joke. Of the 2 packs I bought one arrow's nock shattered upon impact into a foam archery target and another the nock cracked and fell off AND the tip fell off. So out of 6 arrows only 4 are currently usable and all with very round tips.The fiberglass shafts have so far held up just fine and appear straight. The rubber fletchings - despite some having waves/ripples in them from use - are showing no signs of coming off the shafts.These "Eastman" brand arrows are conveniently named. The quality beginners arrows you should get is "Easton" brand.***UPDATE***The best 26" youth arrow I've found is . I found them cheaper online at meijer dot com (2.49/arrow) so bought twelve there. The Easton brand are lighter and fly better than the heavier Carbon Express ones, have more of a point to the tips, and neither tips nor nocks have broken/fallen off. The difference in consistency is amazing. At just under 20 yards I'm keeping these within two inch circles - a feat I am still unable to accomplish with the Carbon Express'. My 13 year old sister doesn't have that precision yet but she only comes over every couple weeks so her form still needs work.The bow being used is the .

Yes, these arrows fly well (though their stuff rubber fletchings have damaged the arrow rest on my bow and maybe skewed a few flights), and yes, they can take up a good beating. However, that's where their good attributes stop.The arrows I received look nothing like the ones in the picture; they are all black with permanent field tips and an orange plastic nook that doesn't fit the string (though that could just be a "string is too thin" issue, though I'd say my string was pretty thick... whatever). They are for meant for draw weights up to 25 pounds, but it doesn't say this in the description; my bow is 30-35 pounds, so that was a fail. They also have permanent field points that dull rather quickly.All in all, I was very disappointed with what I received, but hey, at least they work and the price was alright, though I would recommend investing a little more in aluminum arrows with feather fletchings instead.
