| How Old Do You Have To Be To Buy A Bow And Arrow In California |
Age Ain't Nothing But a Number (Unless You're Buying Bows)
The golden question is: How old do you have to be to buy a bow and arrow in California? The short answer is: there's no specific age limit. You could be a sprightly 5-year-old with dreams of becoming the next archery champion (we support your ambition, kiddo!). But before you start practicing your Robin Hood impression on your little brother, let's get real.
Tip: Every word counts — don’t skip too much.
While there's no age restriction on buying bows and arrows, common sense should be your guide. Bows are powerful tools, and safety should always come first. If you're under 18, it's highly recommended that you involve a responsible adult. We're talking about someone who knows the difference between an arrow and a toothpick.
Tip: Don’t skip — flow matters.
