My son was average size and I believe I started him at eight or nine years old. Glad I did, he handled the bow just fine. It’s so adjustable in draw length and weight. He’s 16 now and if he had any interest, he could still shoot that bow.Would you recommend jumping an 8 year old into a bow like this with no experience? Or should I start him with a diamond atomic or Genesis first?
I agree with Robby. I don’t believe he’d have any issues going straight to the Radik.Would you recommend jumping an 8 year old into a bow like this with no experience? Or should I start him with a diamond atomic or Genesis first?

ya, coordination is as important as strength, maybe more at first.Hey guys I pulled the trigger! After I ordered I noticed they have a calculator that shows min/max draw weight by draw length. I measured his wingspan at around 51" so figure 20.5" and the calcuator shows min 16lbs, max 35 lbs. Hope 16lbs isn't too much for him, I have no gauge for what he can pull, it's an awkward movement until you get the coordination for it.
