If you can top 550 you`re doing good, 540+ still isn`t bad tho. Good luck.

look at the AIUK winter league scores, they will give you an idea, but as mentioned 540 is a good start, if you can regularly get above 550 this winter you will be doing well, you may suffer with some wild shots at first, they are the ones that hurt your score when you start with compound.

Why don't you shoot a few Scores to see where you are and then progress from there. You can't really choose a score to aim for, until you know where you are up to.
