10 years ago I bought a bunch of points and nocks that fit 1/4" wood arrow shafts for little kids arrows. With my CRS (Can't remember "stuff") I no longer remember where I purchased them. Does anyone have a source?
5/16" arrows are like shooting logs for a 7 yr. old. So I'm looking for something better.
3 Rivers have 60 gr, 1/4" points and 9/32 nocks will work fine........
3 Rivers has 1/4" Bohning nocks, too.
Kudos to you for making 1/4" kid arrows. I see too many people making 5/16" arrows for kids. Those may be fine for a bigger kid but those little folks need these light arrows. Nothing discourages a kid more than seeing their arrow bounce off the atrget.

The nocking point had a lighter, parallel target point for kids arrows. Its old stock, but they look great and are easy to fit without tapers. The may still have some.
1/4" is the way to go with kids arrows.
I can send you some 9/32 nocks. I have quite a few taking up space. They are red. PM me if you want some, they are free to you.
Thanks Shedrock, just sent you a PM. I'm going to the NC Traditional Championships in a few weeks and I see too many kids with arrows bouncing out of the targets.
Been using 1/4 dowells for kids arrows for years . Made my Grand/daughter 10 last year when I got her, her first bow Was dissapointed in the 1/4 points I got from 3 rivers ( First time ever dissapointed in any thing I gort from 3 rivers ) points were all lsightly different sizes some required "shaving "shaft to just get them on but most were way too big . Had trouble geting them on straight and then had to epoxy them on to keep them there WAY too much work for kids arrows. I had measured the shafts and found them to be 1/4 inch when I firs had the problem so it wasnt variations in shaft sizes . Just be prepared for some extra work on the points
Lost Nation has points, nocks, and feathers for 1/4" shafts. And the price is very reasonable!
Kustom King has points.
Black Rhino at www.bows.net...........I (//http://) have used them for the grandkids' bows and arrow making for years. Good people.
Redo of the site address... www.bows.net (http://www.bows.net) I apologize.
The Nocking Point has both in 1/4, I get them fairly often for my grandsons arrows that I make. The field points are I believe 70 grains and a standard taper.
nocking point is stand up people.i ordered my dacron through them , and will use them for points as well soon.
