How much difference is there for a beginner between something like the Polaris and perhaps a KAP WINSTAR II and associated limbs.
I'm aware there will be a difference but what is it and will it be noticable for the first 6months-year of me shooting?

Wooden risers are cheap and good if you know that you will want to change it for something else next year. However, they have a limited cut-away and are therefore a bit limited in tuning range, generally don't take standard limbs, or fastflight strings. So if this is a one-off chunk of money, get a decent metal riser with international fitting limbs, but remember that you will probably need to upgrade limbs and therefore arrows as well as time goes on.
