Beman Bowhunting Arrows; Arrows Can Break and Hit Unintended Targets
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The recalled arrows can break when launched and hit unintended targets, posing a puncture hazard to the user and bystanders.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
What it looks like
Photos help. Identifiers decide. Appearance can vary by color, finish or packaging. Confirm the model number, date code or other identifier in the official notice.
