A slingshot is not a bow. Has nothing to do with how good you can slingshot.

Anyway, the below are the specs.

Product specification:

IBO Rating= 260 fps
Axle-to-Axle = 21" (51.5 cm)
Brace Height= 9.5 " (23.3cm)
Mass Weight = 3.30 lbs (1.50 kg)
Let off = 75 – 80 %
Draw Weight = 50 lbs
Draw Length = 27-1/2" (67.5cm)

I hope you know how to read this. For me... 21" ATA is very short.
Bow is not forgiving, and you might have a hard time pulling, anchoring and aiming.
If you have a short arm, and strong steady arm....yeah...not an issue.

The draw length is 27.5, it should be enough, but you should be able to tune +/- 2" offset.

50 lbs for a compound bow , and for HUNTING....depends on what you are after.
Definitely useless against thick hide animals...ie: wild boars. In fact...USELESS. You will need to be very close proximity to let that off.

1.5kg is light, and again...not forgiving. That means...any small twitching and swaying when you let your arrow off... your shot will just "fish tail" somewhere.

My opinion...CRAP.

get a decent ATA around 24-25", a tad heavier....perhaps better Let-Off, that would help you to hold your short longer, aim and shoot.

Try to pull one with approximately 60# draw weight...and see if you can do that, before going HUNTING.
Naturally, I am guessing you are rich enough to replace your aluminium shaft arrows.
Reason...aluminium is the cheapest shaft and any shot you are doiing on hunting is going to damage your arrow straightness.

Split limbs...is a big NO for me.
Twin Cams, is ok, but for power..usually solo cam. Less adjustment than calibrating Twin cams.

hope this helps.

There is an easier way to measure than needing someone to measure your draw length.
Get a long arrow shaft, point one end to your throat (with a nock), and the use both your middle finger touching each other to the other end of the shaft.

That would be accurate enough to determine your draw length.

Sorry, don't hunt.

I use to be in shooting in archery range , and the tuner/teacher sometimes tunes bows and help them fletch vanes for aluminium arrows for hunters. Also get those sharp razor arrows head for them.

If you are interested, you can walk into any archery shops. They will know who to contact and where the usual hunts are.

Also, you need a license to hunt certain animals.... you can't just walk to the jungle and kill something doing it.
If you get caught....enjoy your time.

I know some do illegal hunting.

1) Can you take one of the arrow...point the nock to your throat (Adam apple), and then stretch both your hands to hold the tip of the arrow with your middle fingers?.

If your middle finger tip is longer...your arrow is short.
IF your middle finger is touching inside the arrow shaft...it means you need to cut the arrow length shorter.





2) draw length 29"-30" is quite long. Usually for you, it might be 26.5-27"...but you need to go to the archery shop to measure that for you.
Else, you need to pull 29"-30" before you can nock , rest and aim your arrow....which would strain the wrong muscle


Or...do this maths calculation.
I don't think you have a draw "release" clicker right?...so, the below should apply as well.





3) 60# is very hard to pull... LOL. If you have not shot compound before...stick with the minimum poundage.
You can see your minimum poundage, by looking at the specs in your bow's limb.
The bow has TWO limbs, you can find the reading there.
I assume the lowest might be somewhere 45 pounds.

I shoot 50-52# on indoor 20m....so, that is fine. Don't strain yourself....until you build the right back muscles to pull them.


4. I realize your compound does not come with a stabiliser....
Perhaps you might want to consider getting one.
IF you are hunting...usually it is a short stick in the lower limb....for competition, it is very long , and heavy at the tip.



Sorry, I am not sifu.... I already retired 9 years ago....ahahahahha....
Enjoy your shooting on targets...

BEcareful not to hurt any living things.

Stabilizer has 2 main functions

a) reduce vibration across your entire compound bow body
b) reduce sound ( if you have any )

I don't know the market prices these day for re-string...basically, you need to be sure that your draw length is not too away from your anchoring , and you are comfortable in shooting it.

You can also try here, if you are nearby...

Lion Archery- Kepong
https://plus.google.com/1180346475255585124...out?gl=my&hl=en

Just don't get "forced" to buy anything....when you are a newbie...just do more research.
Help is available in this forum as well....



Also , there is UFL..nearby Kepong as well...they are dealers for HOYT.

I buy from a retired army Major in KL last time for arrows.
Not sure if he is still alive. 03- 4041 2208 , 012-213 2924 (Major Burhanuddin )


Then there is the Shah Alam shops...that i am not well verse with... I don't shoot outdoors and last time they don't carry compound equipments...mostly recurve.

Enjoy.

Yes, the arrow stand is probably referring to the arrow rest.
There are probably some reasons why such bows are sold in cheap prices...

Did not go to the site to read, so ...I am just assuming by the cost.


a) the limbs are not meant to shoot high poundage. It might just go 15-20#. Limbs that are not subjected to test, would only hurt you if they crack. Pray that it isn't some "wood".

b) the riser bodys are probably aluminium/stainless steel, heavy or light. It would be flimsy, and probably toyish.

c) Did not see the cams, so.. I have no idea how the bow strings are attached.
Probably doesn't even come with bow string...


If you are just looking to do commercial shooting, or some advertisement, ....sure.
I don't recommend even getting such an item.

1) Might hurt yourself
2) A body of metal, attached to some "wood", and screws and a sight that cost <$10. An arrow rest that cost $10-15...

Looking to profit $100 there...which leave you with an actual $100+ item that is just for decoration, than it 's purpose.

If you are looking to spend that amount....try getting a traditional bow instead, at least it shoots, and not harm yourself.
