LWANO Carbon Arrow Archery 30inch Hunting Target Practice Arrows for Compound & Recurve Bow Spine 500 with Removable Tips (Pack of 12)

I have read many mixed reviews here with some claiming these arrows are great for the price and others saying they suck for various reasons ranging from loose tips/nocks to loose fetching to the shaft splitting. I got one dozen of these arrows so I thought I would put them to the test. I don't know if I just got a good batch or of this company really upped their game but I torture tested THE TRASH out of these arrows with my 45lb 62" recurve and they held up very well and are still usable. Here are some of the tests I did:1) I shot the same arrows at a pile of dirt over and over and over again at the bows full power and the results were simple. The arrows, although dirty, were still in perfectly good shape.2) I then took those arrows and shot them at sand mixed with gravel over 10 times. Results. Although a bit beat up and scratched, the arrows were still fine. No loose nocks or tips. No shaft splitting or any other kind of breakage. No loose or destroyed fletching. Some times I would miss the pile and they would glance off the top of the pile and slam into a rock because but again, they were fine.3) Shot them at wood: Fine.4) I straight up shot them at a rock from 25 yards. They were mostly fine but the metal tips were damaged. I also had to screw some of them back in because they were a bit loose but went back in tight.5) I shot one at a metal wheelbarrow and it poked a hole in the wheelbarrow, bounced off, and was completely fine. This was a full power shot.After numerous torture tests the arrows were scratched up and pretty poor looking with a few 'dents' here and there on some of the arrows. Tips were sheared also. However, they are still usable and safe to shoot. The nocks are still tight and so are the vanes and tips.Verdict: There must be quality control issues because some people here seem to get bad batches while others like myself receive great batches.Other ratings:Durability (of my batch): Very high.Accuracy: Moderate.Price: Very affordable.Recomed? Yes.

For the money you can't beat them! I would say that they aren't the same quality as an Easton arrow but pretty darn close and for the price difference I will be using these arrow from now on. Additionally, quite heavy which is perfect for hunting! I put some 200 grain field points on them so they have the same weight as my broad head and man! The arrow is a freaking lawn dart at 660 grains. Down side, the nocks and inserts are glued in so twisting the nock is not possible. The inserts though, you CAN get them out but with some work. I haven't done this on this specific arrow but you can take your field points and put the very tip in a flame for about 45-60 seconds. The heat will conduct through the field point metal to the insert and heat/melt the glue enough where with some plier you can twist the field point and insert out. So cutting these arrow down to a specific size if needed is possible. These arrows come about a 0.25 inches longer than my 500 easton gold tips and fly just about as well. So I haven't gone through the hassle of the above process.To speak on durability, I'm only shooting a 35lb recurve with a 29/29.5 inch draw (shoulder injury). I shot through the hay back stop I have and then it hit the frame of a 60s chevy truck I have out back. Didn't bend, crack, or break the shaft. Another shot went through a weak spot in the hay and skirted though the woods behind hitting a few saplings and still no damage. So I would say they seem relatively durable. But again when I pick up one of these and an easton and I go to bend it. The easton just feels like it has a bit more elasticity and would be less likely to break under momentary, hard stress. But up to this point this feeling has not born fruit as I have yet to break an arrow. (fingers crossed)

These arrows are great for beginners. They hold up as well as some of the more expensive brands. Yes if you hit metal/ log the arrow may become damaged but that’s archery. My only complaint is 1/12 arrows came cracked.

My husband unpacked the arrows and was out by daylight testing them. He has been practicing his archery skills and these arrows have made him happy as he is jitting the target mors often.

These are my everyday arrows and they get a lot of use *most* of them wind up in the target but they've taken some abuse with the occasional brush shot. They are bright and easy to locate- high quality construction I've shot these many times and they still look good and perform well.

The vanes don’t stick on very well. I’ve shot my 3 shot groups with the same arrows at least 10-15 times a day every day and the vanes are coming off. Otherwise, fantastic for the price.

The first time I shot one of these arrows...I thought to myself...wow...not bad. The second arrow though...that was a completely different story. I don't know how...but the nock popped off mid-shot resulting in what was essentially a dry fire. Not good. But I thought to myself...it was probably a fluke. The bow seemed okay, so I kept on shooting. Three arrows later...another nock comes off, and I dry fire again. Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me. I learned my lesson, and opted to cut my losses. I like my bows too much to risk damaging them. I have had great luck with arrows purchased on Amazon, so I was very shocked and saddened that these arrows turned out to be such a bust. Sure, I could probably modify them to make them safer to use...but why. These were cheap arrows...and while I know you get what you pay for, and I am usually quite forgiving on that front, and arrow that doesn't shoot is not what I paid for at all. So to the trash they have gone...never to be seen or heard from again.

Very slow arrows, cheaply made. But that's what you get when you try to save on archery supplies... Would not buy again
