Can the arrow handle the power of a 60lb draw weight?

The arrow can but the string is pretty weak I wanna say its only 80lb test and broke on me twice on my 50 lb bow

I wouldn't shoot it at that weight. If you hit a rock it'll probably shatter I would think

I bought one for the wife and was surprised that it is plenty strong enough (I have to pull it back for her). My compound is set at 65# and it easily shoots as strong as that. The arrows are cheap (buy some carbons). I couldn't tweak it in with the peep sights so i put the scope on (it was a little difficult) and it shoots fine. All in all plenty of power and well worth the price. I would suggest a puller as it cocks the string evenly.

believe that the amount of pounds the recurve is rated at is a standard draw of 28 inches. at the draw of 28 inches is 50lbs for a recurve rated 50lbs. still I pull my bow 30 inches which increases the poundage. I shoot 31 inch arrows with a inch left over the front. of course one could draw further depends on length of arm and strength.

I don't recall that there was a draw weight limit on the packaging. However, these are intended for children's bows so the strength of the arrows is probably far in excess of what a child could pull. Considering my son shoots these into a wood fence when he misses the target none have failed or even dented the point.

After looking at several states regulations on bow hunting, the average draw is 35-45 lbs. This crossbow has 175 lbs of draw. I'm sure it will take a deer with no problems. HOWEVER- do consult your state's regulations on using crossbows for big game hunting. Most states allow you to hunt with a crossbow during rifle season but not bow season. Depends on the state and check the regs before going.

Actually I think it would be better for that than standard bow with FP I am using. This thing is seriously tough. Getting the bolts out after the shot will be the challenge so you will likely need a puller.

An awesome entry-level crossbow, this Avalanche recurve crossbow features a black synthetic stock and fiberglass limbs that offer pure performance. The 11" power stroke with a 150-lb. draw weight delivers arrow speeds of up to 210 FPS with a 16" aluminum arrow. Hit your target with precision accuracy using the built-in adjustable sights. It even offers a mounting rail for adding a scope or red-dot sight. 5.61 lbs (Scope not included)150-lb. draw weight of bowUses 16" aluminum arrows210 FPS speed of arrowRail for adding scope or sight

yes you can draw the bow past the standard 28" draw length, you can draw it to at least 32" without any damage to the bow. the draw weight of the bow will increase about 3 to5 pounds per inch past 28"

It is a real bow and can be set to a draw length of 22/23, the only thing to check is your state requirements for minimum poundage. At that draw length it might not be a high enough poundage to legally hunt.

Adjustable draw weights from 19 lbs to 45 lbs is correct Includes three arrows and bow arrow holder.

I use a 45 #compound and it works fine for that. The leather is real heavy and thick. My bow is adjustable and later on when I build up more strength Ill increase it to 55 and so on. I really think it could handle it

Ben,I don't know how long u been shootin slingshots but there is no draw weight per say for these bands.when u draw a slingshot it has different strengths at different lengths. I shoot 32 inch carbon fiber arrows with real feathers at as far as I can pull the slingshot.U will like these bands cause they give u a very stable n strong feel wen u pull them n release the arrow.Dont no yer age but these bands are very stout so be ready for some resistance.I have no prob with them at all.Hope this helps.

Draw weight is about 25#. Let of around 10#, and draw length is not adjustable nor is the bow upgradable. Has no knock rests and the string cannot have the peep put into it so aiming is tricky.

The draw weight and lengths are adjustable. I have it set at 55lbs with a 28inch draw. set up is a cinch. You'll have to buy the tools to adjust the weight and draw or take it to a reputable place. I love my Martin bow. its awesome for a self taught beginner like myself.

Yes for about the first 40 yards or so but you will have to resight for each style of arrow due to weight and drag differences.

No, you have to adjust the Draw Weight, according to your strength so you can easily pull it back. Go to You Tube and search for how to shoot a Compoun Bow (do not dry fire a bow) very dangerous if you do that. Good Hunting.

The draw weight means the amount of force needed to draw the string to its,maximum draw length which in this case is 28" I do believe. If the draw weight is 20 lbs then i would have to excert the same amount of force on the string as i would need to lift a 20 lbs weight. Or, if i tied a 20 lbs barbell to the string of the bow, and lifted it by the handle of the bow then i would draw the bow to the,max draw length. Basically you'd have to pull with 20 lbs of force on the string to draw the bow fully.
