Are these properly weighted bows or does she have serious toe grip strength to draw the bowstring like that?

I don't know exactly, but this is specially made equipment. I've never seen a bow with a hole in the handle for the arrow. That makes a lot of sense, it's probably very difficult to balance the arrow just right. And because of the hole, I'm not seeing much in the way of fletching on that arrow. The grip is also made for toes. I would guess it is a lower weight bow.

Maybe they rifle the hole and the spin takes the place of fletching?

Good catch! I did not notice that little detail.
