Hello all,

Well, after this season is over I am going to likely get a Samik Sage recurve to learn to shoot over the winter. I know nothing aside from watching a couple youtube videos.

Some totally basic questions:

- What draw weight is good to start out with to gain good form and what draw weight should you work up to for deer?

- What arrows should I get to start off with to practice at both a range and in the woods with a target.

- Any accessories I should get right away, or just get the bow arrows and target and fly at 'er?

Thanks for taking the time to answer. My goal is to go out next year for archery season. I do not have the cash to go compound right now and may well in the future. I think the recurve will be a fun skill to learn and look forward to getting out an extra month next year even if it is improbable that I will get close enough to comfortably attempt to harvest a deer.
