Black Rhino bows and what kind of arrows?

[xtrema312]

After some looking I think the Black Rhino M48 will be a good next step for the kids given I can find anything in the draw weight for a kids or light adult bow.  I would like to get them a Mad Dog, but looks like that would take longer than we have for now so maybe for Christmas or something for a second bow.  

I am wondering about arrows now.  I would like some non biased input on their arrows.  We will be shooting a draw of about 19" right now so length is not an issue, but I am wondering about spine, and cost.  I want to make sure I get arrow that can be tuned to the bow.  Weak is ok as we can build out, but I don't want too stiff.  That is a problem now with more toy like bows and fiberglass kids arrows, and I want them to be able to get it shooting where they look.

How do the Black Rhino 1/4" wood arrows work in the mid range bows? I don't know that we need stained and crested arrows for $3.50 a pop.  

Is there a good source for just sealed and fletched arrow with nice pointed tips that will stick in 3D targets?  They had some decent kids arrows at the GLLI that had good sticking points and not those dull bullet points.  They were not fancy, but shoot well out of kids weight bows.  

Is there anything in aluminum or carbon that would be a better choice than wood?  Something that would spine right in a 15@20 bow with a 24" arrow?

make your own. cheap and fun. wood kids arrow blanks are only a few bucks.

What is the best source for kids arrow supplies?  

I may give that a go, but with summer winding down and only a couple weeks left before hunting season gears up with the early goose season, I don't have much time.  I still have some stands to set and other odds and ends that will take up all weekends from hear on out.  Sounds like a good project for January to beef up the kid arrow inventory, but I probably need to get some for them to shoot now.

The M48 is a great choice and very versitile bow.  Chuck at Black Rhino knows his product and can set you up with the right arrows to go with it.  The 1/4" ramin arrows are what I set my son up with (several years ago) and they really shoot well from the kid bows.

I have the 1/4 inch ramin shafts, points, nocks and 3" fletch on hand, but no finished arrows.  I'd be hard pressed to make and sell them for what Black Rhino does.

Thanks Fletcher.  I will PM you for info on arrow supplies.

You could go to Bowhunters Supply if you wanted aluminum. They have the jazz arrows down to a size 1214. Which is gonna be close to what you want.
