The BowieRaki is designed for children ages 6 and up. Younger children (6-8) should use minimum bowstring tension with adult supervision. Older children (9-12) can handle increased tension independently. The adjustable system accommodates a wide age range effectively.

Yes, the soft foam arrows with suction cup tips are specifically designed for safe indoor use. They won't damage walls, break items, or cause injury. However, adult supervision is always recommended indoors, and children should aim only at the target or smooth surfaces.

The bowstring tension adjusts via a mechanism near the bow's upper limb. Most versions feature a simple dial or lever that increases or decreases resistance without tools. Start at minimum tension and increase gradually as skills develop over time.

The LED lights require 2 AAA batteries (not included). The lights activate when drawing the bowstring. Battery life depends on usage but typically provides many hours of illuminated play. The bow functions normally without batteries as an enhancement feature.

Yes, the hanging target works perfectly outdoors. Attach it to trees, fences, or portable archery stands. The durable construction withstands weather exposure, though bringing it indoors during heavy rain or snow extends lifespan and maintains scoring visibility.

Press the button release mechanism to detach the bow into two sections for compact storage. This separated configuration fits easily in closets, toy boxes, or under beds. Store arrows in the quiver, and hang or fold the target flat.

Suction cups adhere best to smooth, non-porous surfaces like windows, mirrors, tiles, and the included target. They may not stick reliably to textured walls or rough wood. For wall-mounted practice, use the hanging target or attach a smooth board.

Absolutely! The adjustable bowstring tension makes it perfect for families with multiple children of different ages and strengths. Adjust tension to match each child's capabilities. The included 10 arrows support multi-player games and competitions without constant retrieval.
