The short amswer is yes. BUT, I hope you know it is never safe to shoot wooden shafts in a compond bow. With a wooden bow after the arrow is started the presure on it gets less. Not so with a compond. I know 1 guy the shattered a wooden arrow in a compond, luckly it when over his arm, but he never shot another wooden arrow in his bow again.

I had one of those youth compound bows when I was a kid and wooden arrows was all I used to use so yes they will work in that bow. I believe the wooden arrows are good with weights up to 35#. And yes drilling a hole in a wooden arrow will make it too weak to use with that bow.
