Recommended Arrow Parameters
When looking for replacement or additional arrows for the Little Mingo, keep these specifications in mind for the best performance:
- Arrow Length: 24" – 26" inches.
- Shaft Material: Lightweight wood (Cedar/Pine) or specialized youth carbon shafts.
- Point: Target points with low weight (e.g., 65–85 grains).
- Spine: Very soft, ideally 1000 or higher, to match the low draw weight.
Maintenance and Safety Tips
To keep the Little Mingo in top condition, store it horizontally or on a bow rack in a cool, dry place. Periodically apply bowstring wax to the string to prevent fraying and moisture absorption. Always check the limbs for any signs of stress or cracks before use.
Safety Warning: Under no circumstances should the bow be dry-fired (released without an arrow). This can cause immediate failure of the limbs and potential injury. Ensure that children are always supervised by an adult and use a proper archery target to stop the arrows safely.
Recommended Accessories
To enhance the shooting experience, we recommend a high-density foam target boss, which makes arrow retrieval easy for children. A bright target face adds a fun competitive element. Additionally, an archery backstop net is a great investment for garden practice to catch stray arrows and prevent them from getting lost or damaged.
