They ship the product with 80$ shipping fees and the foldable bow costs $200.

So is it allowed by customs?

Bro I have never used any imported bow till now but want to say two things.
1. What they say is not always Right. They are showing proper hunting of mid sized Games that too a tough one with a survival bow. It may possible but pls check.

2. Check with some Archery sports persons who are practicing with imported Bows. They know the system better for importing one.

All the best for your objective

Decathlon used to sale bow and Arrows.
Atleast I saw them @ Raipur and Bangalore. I checked with them over phone. They said that they are selling the imported one.
For me, I am using the Bamboo one for long time and happy with it. For pest control and vermin control its very effective and silent specially in open fields and farms
Never in competition Archery.

Yep. I Tried it. But not much of practice I have done. A friend of mine have one. I have tried with that only. Power is excellent but accuracy is not so good.
May be the arrows were not matching, atleast that's what I thought.
I have a question also about the penetration of Arrows and how much it depends on the Tips/arrow heads. May be this is not the right thread to put it.
