Step 1
Pick aluminum arrows if you want good quality. Producers can make them exactly as you need them. These arrows are the most expensive, but last the longest. They are often used for tournaments.

Step 2
Buy fiberglass arrows if you want consistent quality. They are consistent, but they break easily so they may not be as long-lasting as the aluminum. These arrows are used for hunting.
-
Step 3
Use wooden arrows if you are a beginner who wants cheaper arrows. You can get them custom made to eliminate as many flaws as possible. Make sure the manufacturer uses compressed cedar, because these arrows won't warp as easily as other wooden arrows.
-
Step 4
Purchase wooden arrows with a brand name like Hexshaft. These wooden arrows are strong, accurate, durable and known world wide for their good quality. Look at the quality of wood when purchasing any wooden arrows and look at how the arrows are made. Good arrows are of uniform structure and are usually laminated wood.

Step 5
Choose straight arrows. You want them to be sturdy so they don't bend or warp. This ensures the arrows will go straight to the target and not go off kilter or drop in mid air.

Step 6
Buy arrows that are all the same kind so that you can perfect your shot. You will get used to how the arrows shoot, fly and hit the target.

Step 7
Look at the nock of the arrow. Make sure it is loose enough to release the arrow with ease. Pick arrows with sturdy fletching. You want feathers that won't come off.
