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!

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.

I bought these arrows because they were cheaper and I kept losing my carbon arrows in the grass or to stray stones.For the price and the amount of arrows you get its a good deal.The tone tone nature of these arrows make them much easier to spot in a fieldAlthough a lot of people hate on fiberglass, I find these arrows just as sturdy as carbon ones. I shoot mainly outside. Both carbon and fiberglass arrows break just as easily outside.Cannot replace arrow nocks. because they're glued to the inside of the shaft. If it breaks after hitting a rock o because you shot i you’re gonna need to buy a new arrow.arrow heads come much less pointed than other brands of target arrows.Arrow heads deform EXTREMELY easily. Ive had alot go blunt. I found this out when my arrows started bouncing off my target back at me because they became blunt.Also cant replace arrowheads because there is no threading. They were mounted with glue. This did make it nice though to not constantly be tightening arrow heads back up.Shaft if noticeably heavier than a carbon arrow.I have had ZERO issues with the shaft breaking. No damage at all. With carbon arrows I sometimes get long carbon strips that can be peeled off the arrow if it is damaged.

Arrows are holding up well

Tips came off of 4 of the 10 durning first use :-(

Got our kids a recurve bow and naturally we lost a few arrows into the woods

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.
