This was my first archery purchase and it has worked out great. I've put all kinds of accessories on it, even a whisker biscuit and a aftermarket aluminum sight and had no issues. The included arrows are not great, if you're new look for cheap carbon arrows with feather fletchings on Amazon and you should be able to find them for under 4$ per arrow. The included arm guard is almost non-functional so get yourself an upgrade there too.Despite the shortcomings on the included accessories I'm giving this 5 stars because it's held up through all kinds of newbie abuse, has shot a racoon and rabbit, and I'm still practicing probably 50-100 arrows a day and getting 12" groups at 100'... its been a great new hobby.

My 14 year old had never picked up a bow in his life and went right to it with this great set. Went with a 25lb string to start him off and it's worked perfect, he's been using for a few weeks and having fun with the targets I picked up separately. Its sturdy and plenty powerful - this is not to play with. The first day he put 3 plastic tip practice arrows through my large garbage receptacle missing the target. This was at a large distance and these were the garbage cans designed for street pick up made of thick plastic, so make sure you have the space to practice safely with this type of bow. Lastly, it's long, my son's a tall guy at almost 6' so it was perfect for him but may not be the bow for some younger beginners or those on the short side if they don't have the arm length. Only suggestions is to look up online how to string the bow because the instructions aren't very good and pick up some arrows. The ones included are poor quality and you can find some great practice arrows right here on Amazon.

Great beginner bow! The extras aren't great quality, but the bow is worth the price alone if you're just starting out. The arrows and sight are decent, but everything else seems a little flimsy. The stringer was very easy to use! My main complaint about the bow itself is that the nock came off my second shooting session. I'll be super gluing it on or buying a more solid one. Overall, very pleased with my purchase!

Good starter bow, or bow for those with limited upper body strength.The price point was okay, but there were some quality issues that needed to be resolved before using. Limb fitment to riser was extremely poor out of the box, and I was forced to bed the limbs with fiberglass.All in all an okay quality, cheap bow.

I’m very new to archery. My husband wanted to learn so we decided to each get a bow and learn together.The strap to help you string this bow is the best! I couldn’t string the bow without it and it made me feel better knowing I wouldn’t have to rely on someone else to string it for me.The directions were clear and it was simple to assemble. This would be great for a big out bag.If you intend to hunt I would suggest checking your state laws as 25lbs isn’t heavy enough in my state to take hunting. I’m currently not planning on hunting so it’s perfect. Eventually I will move up to a heavier bow as I get stronger but this is fun to shoot without straining.This is great for someone just starting out wanting to work on aiming and simply hitting the target. This would also be great for children to learn on as long as they are tall enough to hold it and have it off the floor.
