Bear Archery Apprentice Bow Set.

Durable only thing is the knock will fall off that holds the arrow. Need to super glue it on before it goes flying off. Great value for the money kids first bow great present for Christmas or birthdays and the beginner bow archery set.

Kid loves it. Easy to pull back but powerful enough to be able to practice.

If you can get this cheaply it's a great. In a sense that's true of a lot of things, but in this case it's made in a way so as to be able to be very cheap, making it a good, fun starter bow for a young kid who doesn't know if he's interested in archery or not. The rubber finger protectors on the string make it very easy to pull, though they do make proper finger position and release more important in order to get a halfway accurate shot. Just be prepared to buy real arrows if you want them to be able to stick into a target - the included "safety arrows" are blunt and will bounce off of anything more tightly packed than sand or loose straw. If you've got real arrows and a close target (about 10 yards) it's even fun for an adult to play with - and I recommend doing that so you can teach the child how to use this bow specifically. Note: for some reason the arrow rest (a black plastic tab) comes in the bag with the instructions, it's not factory applied, so don't forget to put it on before shooting.

The media could not be loaded. Over all this seems to be a good starter bow for my 9yr old. It’s not adjustable and the arrow rest fell off the first time she shot it but it can be glued back on. She loves it and seems to shoot pretty well with it.Bought this one for our 5yr old. https://www.amazon.com/Bear-Archery-Valiant-Bow-Set/dp/B07YQ4JJDL/ref=mp_s_a_1_31?dchild=1&keywords=bear%2Byouth%2Bbow&qid=1609825097&sr=8-31&th=1&psc=1

Update: We tried it out Christmas Day. He was still on his pajamas, but wanted to try it. It was cold so he only took 4 shots. He hit the target with all 4. He likes it very much. I tried it out before him to make sure my makeshift target would work. On the first shot the arrow rest came off. I may use gorilla glue or epoxy for it next time. I shot 14 arrows after that and hit the target with all. It was quite windy and the shots weren’t terribly consistent, but I have no training at archery either. Overall I am happy with the purchase and would recommend it for anyone wanted to gauge a beginner’s interest without a huge financial investment.Original review: Bought as a present for my son. It arrived quickly and is just what I was looking for to judge his interest in picking up archery as a hobby. I'll update after he tries it out.

This is a perfect little starter bow. My six-year-old was so excited to receive it for his birthday. He can easily pull it back although we need to work on his aim he absolutely loves it. Good quality for the price.**Update - after only using this a few times, my son went out to shoot only and they had only shot once when it broke on him. It looks like a piece just broke off. I'd still give it three stars as I am sure this was just a fluke.

Bought this for my son, as his sister had a traditional bear (also highly recommended).This thing is a beast for the price. The mounded grips are comfortable and it's plenty powerful for everyday target shooting.Since all the draw work is upfront, I'd recommend this at the 5-6+ year age group. My 4 year old was having a bit of trouble drawing versus the traditional bow.

Grandson loves it! Very sturdy built
