Blimey, you're not wrong!

I'm one week three/ four of shooting and I've started to accumulate accessories but I'm not going to get a bow for another few weeks. I now have a quiver, tab, arm guard, bow stringer and probably my most expensive investment, a decent pair of walking shoes for shooting in, although not strictly archery kit they should give me a better platform to shoot from.

Right now I'm following the advice I see and hear everywhere, to now buy a bow and limbs until my draw and draw weight settle a bit and then to go to a store and get fitted, its something I am looking forward to but despite being a 'kit' junkie, something I'm sticking to. I'm very grateful to my club for being able to provide beginners gear for so long and would be happy to make a donation for its ongoing hire on top of my beginners course fees.
