After a fair bit of googling I found quite a few references to this forum and I'm happy to be here.
I'm sure there's a thousand threads on this but I'd just like a quick answer so I can just get out there and start shooting lol
I've hunted with a compound bow in my youth but always wanted to get into recurve shooting!!! Glad to be have found a good archery community to join.
Okay, I determined my proper draw length via this site:
http://www.learn-archery.com/proper-draw-length.html
I then did some shopping on amazon and bought this bow along with an arrow rest and other goodies (glove, arm guard, extra string, string wax):
http://www.amazon.com/OMP-Adventure-2-0-Recurve-Bow/dp/B00GOUT9M0
The part I am stuck on, drum roll, you guessed it - The arrows.
There are so many suggestions and conflicting information. It seems the science of selecting/making/adjusting arrows is what has me blinking and very confused. I just want to start shooting and see what happens. Need some good, relatively cheap (50-75 bucks?) target/practice arrows to try out at the local community range.
Will these arrows work? I know it says compound...:
http://www.amazon.com/Buffalo-Aluminum-Fletched-Practice-Compound/dp/B00K7QBJPM/ref=cm_cd_al_qh_dp_t
If these arrows won't work, can I get a link to buy some bulk practice arrows that will?
Even if they do work can I still get a link/s to buy some bulk practice arrows at the right size/composition/quality for a 68" recurve bow with 34lb draw?
Thanks in advance for reading a noob's cry for help!
