Thinking about first bow

Hi all.

I've been using the club equipment for a couple of months now and am starting to think about getting my own bow. I'll speak to the coach about it tomorrow but thought I may get some ideas from you guys first.

I've had a good look at Merlin's website and have come up with a (very approximate) budget of £350-400 for riser, limbs and sight. If this is way off please don't hesitate to ridicule me!

The specific items I was looking at were: Hoyt Eclipse riser (£130), Hoyt Stratix limbs (£140) and Shibuya Dual Click Standard sight (£100).

I suppose my main questions are: is this equipment is OK for a beginner archer, and is Merlin's a reasonable place to get it all from?

All comments welcome.
