Brand Erenhill

Tonga / Majra – Short Arrows 17″ and 13.8″ – Erenhill are specialised archery arrows designed for use with a corresponding Tonga/Majra short-arrow guiding system.

They are not conventional arrows that should be placed directly on a horsebow and drawn normally to full draw.

The short arrow and guiding system must work together as one functional setup.

13.8″ / approx. 35.1 cm

Construction

Nock: plastic
Point: copper according to current product data
Fletching: 3″ / approx. 7.6 cm

These arrows may be relevant to:

some horseback archery techniques,
specialised full-draw short-arrow training.

Important safety note

Do not use these short arrows for a conventional full draw without an appropriate Tonga/Majra system or another safe short-arrow guide.

At only 35 or 43 cm long, the point can move behind the normal safe area of the bow long before a conventional full draw is reached.

The current product data does not specify shaft material, shaft diameter, spine, total arrow mass or point weight. Those specifications should therefore not be assumed.

Tonga / Majra Short Arrows for Full-Draw Training – Erenhill

Tonga / Majra short arrows – Erenhill are specialised arrows designed to work with a guiding system that allows an arrow much shorter than the archer's draw length to remain safely controlled.

They are available in 17″ and 13.8″ lengths.

What is Tonga / Majra?

In this product, Tonga or Majra refers to a short-arrow guiding system, not a separate bow type.

The system supports the arrow as it moves farther back during the draw than a conventional arrow of the same length safely could.

Why use a short arrow?

A normal arrow must remain safely in front of the bow hand or rest at maximum draw.

A Tonga/Majra system changes this relationship by providing additional guidance for the short arrow.

This can make the setup relevant to specialised:

dynamic training,
instinctive archery,
speed shooting,
rapid nocking,
some horseback archery techniques.

17-inch version

The 17″ arrow is approximately 43.2 cm long.

Although it is the longer version, it is still much shorter than a normal full-draw arrow and requires an appropriate guiding system.

13.8-inch version

The 13.8″ arrow is approximately 35.1 cm long.

This is an extremely short arrow and should never be treated like a conventional full-draw arrow.

3-inch cut-in fletching

The arrows use 3″ fletching in a cut-in configuration.

The product data describes the fletching as recessed into a modified section of the shaft.

The exact fletching material is not specified.

Plastic nock and copper point

The rear uses a plastic nock.

The point is described in current product data as copper.

Point weight and attachment method are not currently specified.

Horseback archery

Short-arrow systems may be relevant to some horseback archery techniques because of their compact handling.

However, the complete Tonga/Majra setup should first be mastered safely on the ground.

Speed shooting

The system can also be used for specialised rapid-shooting practice.

Speed should only be increased after consistent and safe arrow loading, guidance, draw and release have been established.

Spine and bow weight

No spine, total mass or shaft diameter is currently specified.

It is therefore not responsible to claim that these arrows are suitable for a particular bow-weight range without checking the complete setup.
