Right,

First of all, do you know of, or have you been advised of a GOOD archery shop in your area? These are vital, and a good archery shop is worth travelling across the country for. Personally, I use Bow Plus Archery in Whitchurch, but you need to find one near to you.

Spend as much money as you want on a Riser. If money isn't a problem, then go for something like a Hoyt Helix. There are a lot of different risers out there, try as many as you can! (this is where a good archery shop comes in).

Quiver - magnetic quivers aren't curcial for target archery, and there are much nicer quivers out there.

Sight, yeah, shibuya make some of the best sights for recurve.

Tab - definectly try before you buy, this is a very personal choice!

Limbs - its good idea to buy mid-price limbs for now, as you are likely to change these.

You don't mention arrows?

Feel free to pm if you want to ask anything specific to the Hoyt Helix/Border Limbs as these are what I use.
