    I've just ordered one, thank you so much for the review! Also, you can make that arrow type much safer by adding a 2.5" square cube of open celled foam to the tip, using contact cement to secure it, then wrapping fabric and fabric taping it down to the haft. The foam on those is a bit harsh at less than 5 ft.
