EQUIPMENT

Buying your own bow is a significant milestone for any archer, but we advise new archers to approach this decision thoughtfully, as rushing into a purchase can lead to unnecessary expenses. Your drawing strength (poundage) and draw length are likely to change significantly during your initial months of shooting.

Our recommendation is to invest in the best riser (handle) that suits you or that you prefer. Start with less expensive limbs and arrows initially, as you may need to adjust or replace them as you progress.

Our coaching team can assist you in determining the appropriate bow size and arrow length for your needs.
