You can get them from any place that sells hunting stuff, or even Walmart and Canadian Tire (edit: Wait, shit. You don't live in Canada) I got this one from an actual hunting store though.

The longbow itself was 250 bucks, and the arrows can be anywhere from 70 to 120 dollars. Target practice arrowheads like the ones I got were just 6 dollars for twelve of them though.

Compound bows are more for competitive archery. They're harder to pull back, but once drawn there's like no resistance so its easy to hold back and aim. Longbows are alot more satisfying though just because of the cool factor.

Also damn, arrows are expencive there. They're like 2-7 bucks at Walmart here. Arrow heads are like 12-30 if you want a single good one, otherwise training heads are a box of like 20 for like 2-5 bucks.

I must have gotten shafted (lel) there. The arrows I bought were really high quality hunting arrows and all Im ever going to do for a long time is target practice. I probably could have went the Walmart path, but what happened happened. Now I have some stupidly high quality arrows.

I guess that's true about compound bows though. The cool factor was 90% of why I got the longbow, however. That, and the compound bows there were like 500-900 dollars rofl

Bows are fun to shoot but I've only done target ranges so far with my compound bows... The one is only for competitions (literally it's the type of compound bow) and the other is for hunting with I of course also have hunting arrows for as well... My competition bow is right handed 55lbs pull back and hunting is left handed 65lbs pull back... Compound bows are great for the aiming and little resistance when pulled fully back yes, but also for the arrow rest and that the stance is easy to teach others

I did a bow and arrow activity once. I had no idea what I was doing. It was embarrassing.

On my previously previous school, there was a bow and arrow club that I used to join. It felt pretty good, though I hit the mark just once throughout the whole year.

You are not worthy of wearing Harvey Specter

You're right, I had nothing close to the Specter style back then :(
But to be fair I had to wear a suit to school so it didn't make sense to keep buying expensive ones back then. Hit that tailored suit up as soon as I left though.

I'm running out of ways to waste time today. Embrace my sexiness.
