Posch Archery 12 Pack Natural Feather Fletching Carbon Composite Target Practice Arrows for Recurve, Compound and Traditional Longbow

Arrived with all specs exactly matching the product text description.At the time of this posting, the product text description does not discuss whether the arrows come with 'field points' / tips,nor if so what shape.Furthermore, none of the pictures presently clearly address this matter either (In fact, the 3rd pix from top actually shows the shafts withOUT 'field points' / tips! :- ).The arrows DO come with 'field points' / tips and they have a bullet nose shape.Dec. 15, 2017 UPDATE: Just ordered 12 more.Dec. 18, 2017 UPDATE: Said shipment was as fine as the previous.Btw, with these arrows having Feather Fletchings the method of packaging is important such that Feathers are not damaged .... I like that the manufacture/seller packages with 5 supportive/PROTECTIVE styro-type-foam inserts amongst the arrows.Dec. 29, 2017 UPDATE: While I WILL continue to order these Arrows in the future I am forced to reduce my rating from a 5 Star to a 4 Star because of the 1st three arrows I shot less than 5 times each:(1) One Field Tip Insert came out (albeit, I did miss the target and hit my wooden backstop :- ) &(2) Another Field Tip Insert became loose (would turn easily though it wasn't ready to come out yet.).Therefore, I am pulling all the inserts of the entire two dozen I have purchased and re-gluing each Arrow ......While this is a laborious step, I STILL, at this point, WILL repurchase these Arrows going forward because of the pricing value.So far I have pulled six of the twenty-four inserts and have found that the vendor installed only a minute quantity of glue around the Insert Collars. Had the vendor applied a larger quantity of glue I would not have this problem.

SEE THE UPDATE BELOW! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THESE ARROWS!!ORIGINAL POST:The arrows arrived and were all in good condition. Some of the tips came off and the package was not completely sealed, but luckily none of them escaped. Screwed them back on and they were good to go.To call these arrows "Expert" leads me to assume they are closely matched to one another. The description was perfectly accurate with one exception as it stated the arrows were 1.4 ounces each. First of all, arrows are not measured in ounces, they should be measured in grains. 1.4 ounces is 612.5 grains which is a very heavy arrow. They DO NOT weigh 612.5 grains. I weighed up 4 of them just to see if they were uniform and they ranged from 460 grains to 405 grains which will be okay for my purpose which was to target shoot 20-50 yards. I shoot a Hoyt Carbon Defiant 34 and will probably be able to get these within a 6 inch radius of one another at 40 yards despite the mismatch in weight. "Expert" arrows are matched to weigh approximately the same as one another.UPDATE:Having now shot them I must say these arrows are NOT safe for high powered compound bows. They are not consistent so it is impossible to get them to group. I shoot a group in this size of a tuna can at 20 yards with good arrows but with these I am lucky to get the 3 on the target! The flex is half as stiff as any 400 spine arrow I have ever flexed which translates into inconsistent shooting. They might be good for recurve or kiddie compounds up to 30#, but that is where I would draw the line. I even had one grenade on launch when shooting one through my Hoyt Carbon Defiant 34 at 63#. I was lucky this didn't shatter into my grip arm or damage my sight or string. If you are serious about the sport or shoot high weights, then don't skimp on your arrows. I am going to throw the rest of these away as dangerous. Obviously, I have lowered my rating to 1 star.The fit and finish are quite nice and they look good. The flex seems to be inconsistent in relation to one another. The tips are SPOT ON at 100 grains each and they look like decent target tips.All in all, I think these arrows are fair value for the price. I would not use them for actual hunting and they do not compare with "Expert" arrows Maxima or Easton, but they are also a fraction of the price. I am taking away 1 star for the inaccurate description using "Expert" and the weight statement. For most people's use, these will work fine. I have not shot them yet but expect them to do okay. there were some complaints about the tips coming loose? They all come loose. Just put a dab of loctite BLUE (removable) and you are good to go.

For practice target shooting arrows, these are just great! $36 for 12. I used it on my Diamond Edge SB-1 with 50lb draw weight and 27.5" pull. For reference, I compared these to the Cabela's Carbon Stalker Extreme with blazer vanes ($60 include tips).I found these arrows to be excellent at this price point. I shot the Posch arrows with the Cabela's Carbon Stalker Extreme back to back about 50 times over 3 days and didn't see any difference in performance at both 10 and 20 yards (any performance issue was more because by the shooter).A few things to call out- The natural feathers are less durable vs the plastic blazer vanes, but I liked the feel of those real feathers. The fletching (feathers) fell off several arrows, I super glued them back where I could.- One of the tip and the aluminum inset came off right out of the box. I dipped some super glue and put it back in. Later on during shooting, I've learned to check for tip tightness every time I pull them out of the target. A couple of the tip and aluminum inset were permanently lost in the target. Posch Archery 28" Natural Fletching Carbon Composite Target Arrows for #35-55 Bows (12 Pack)

I picked these up for the Scouts in our troop working on the Archery MB. Tough enough to stand up to most of the abuse and economical enough that you don't miss then when they get lost or broken. Carbon arrows are either straight or broken so no worries about bent arrows. They are nice arrows.

I am new to archery so consider that when reading my review. The arrows are well made and fly straight. After each use I needed to retighten the arrowheads. Maybe this is normal. For two of the arrows, as I pulled them from the target, carefully and in the exact trajectory that they penetrated, the tips came off inside the target. Once I dug the tip out (I could only get one of the two out) and tried to screw it on again it was clear that the inside of the arrow shaft was stripped. Perhaps this is also normal and to be expected.

They were +\- 10 grains. But I still managed good groups using my 50# bear wild compound. I can get better groups with my Carbon express maxima reds 250 spines. I also have my bow set at 70# draw, not to mention they also cost 6x more per arrow than these. But if you just gonna work on your form they are great.

Decent arrows good for practice on up to 25 pound recurve. Spine is approximately 800 based on 2 dozen arrows I have.

a little heavy and tips come out wen hitting wood but decent starter arrows for "targets" .

These arrows don't even shoot straight. They probably work well with a very light pound bow. Anything above 35lbs will make this arrow fly in random directions. I own nearly every Chinese arrow on amazon and this goes down as the worst.

Work great on my low poundage beginner bow. Knocks were set up perfect for my recurve, a couple knocks have come out and need re-glued. But for the price they are exceeding my expectations.
