Hi All,
I've kinda put together my wishlist of gear - admittedly with not too much science applied although some ref to the clubs recommended gear doco was used (with a dap of influence re price added) + the UK recurve guide......
I was going to bring this along on Saturday but I thought this might be easier way to start things off and gather some info - maybe ??
If you have any comments/recommendations/warnings etc I'd be keen to know.....
I'm new so there's some obvious gaps in my knowledge (eg arrows and strings...) but I figure I can work those out as I go, as long as I understand the dependancies/consequences to some degree at the start.
Likewise if there are some second hand versions of these floating around, let me know (I guess this could go in the buy/sell gear section but really the main aim is getting advise...)
Note1: I'm a left handed archer
Note2: Most of it coming from Alt services, which seem pretty good price wise...
- Samick Master Riser (longer term purchase)
- Samick Universal – Carbon – 30# (Assuming the ability to dial back some of the poundage initially ie to 28, dial up later ?? Replace in approx a years time)
- Quiver – not sure yet - they all look so pretty (something under $50)
- Sport spigarelli Z/T (Zero Tolerance) Rest for Samick Master
- Shibuya DX Pressure Button
- Basic short Arm guard
- Legend Pro Tour recurve Backpack (I’ll be doing a bit of cycling with my gear – have been lazy so far). Not totally decided.
- Cavalier Elit Tab – cordovan
- XX75 Platimum Plus Arrows (and bits) - ?? really don’t know about ali arrows now, carbon later ?? (looks like the cost of arrows locally isn’t too much different.....so I could get these locally when I know more
- String – no idea – need to talk to some about this....
Any thing missing (I double checked that I had riser and limbs added, so hopefully nothing too silly missing )
Cheers
