Please select the material for the arrows from the menu.

To give you a little guidance for your purchase decision, here are a few words about the advantages and disadvantages. One could write a doctoral thesis on the interplay of bow strength, bow material, draw length, string, arrow weight, and arrow stiffness, but your coaches can explain the details to you.

Aluminum:

Advantages:

  • Aluminum is very durable and resistant, ensuring a long lifespan of the arrows.
  • Aluminum arrows are typically very consistent in weight and stiffness, leading to consistent performance.

Disadvantages:

  • Aluminum arrows can be slightly heavier compared to other materials, which can affect flight dynamics.
  • Aluminum arrows bend easily and are difficult to straighten.

Carbon:

Advantages:

  • Carbon arrows are very lightweight, leading to faster flight speeds.
  • Carbon is a stiff material, resulting in less bending and twisting during flight.

Disadvantages:

  • Carbon arrows can break under heavy impacts or blows, leading to high replacement costs.
  • High-quality carbon arrows are more expensive than aluminum arrows.

Bamboo:

Advantages:

  • Bamboo is a natural material, making it an aesthetic and traditional choice for arrows.
  • Bamboo has some flexibility, helping to absorb shocks and vibrations during flight.

Disadvantages:

  • Bamboo arrows may be irregular in weight and stiffness, leading to inconsistent shots.
  • Bamboo arrows may require more care and maintenance to keep them in good condition.
