Indoor arrows

[inthemiddle]

As we are an outdoor club I still shoot my main bow weekly to maintain conditioning but I also shoot the 26# at short range at home to keep my eye in and it’s so much easier indoors to be point on rather than messing about with markers

Ah cool fair enough

Hi all,

I don't usually do indoor shooting, I prefer outdoor and longer distances, but as the club I moved to are building a 30m indoor range, they already have an 8 yard practice range, I thought I will be doing indoor more than I would have over winter.

So looking around for arrows (prob X23), I noticed that some online shops sell in batches of 6 or 8 and others 12, even in bare shaft format. So my question is how many arrows would you say is the best to get. The out door arrows i have come in a batch of 12, but as you don't tend to shoot as many at the target, do you need that many? I can understand the "getting them balanced in groups of 3 etc, but for me, it really is just to keep going over winter.

Cheers

It depends. If you are shooting at multi-spot faces, you will almost never damage your arrows so you don't need as many. If you are shooting at a one-spot face, you will need more.

I got 8 Victory NVX for less than £8 per shaft had to get the points up to 170 grain on a 29 inch arrow with 3 inch vanes to get the foc at 12%. It took me 15 minutes to tune the bow brilliant arrow.
