Hi

Isn't archery great. Have just started and I love it. I could spend so much money.
Where do I go to ask questions about bow set up and many other things.

Hi1

Welcome to the mad house!

As a newbe myself, only half way trough the beginners course, I have found a great deal of good advice on this Interchange, with helpful guidance from many.

In general, seek the advice of your coach and then club members, but it will help if you read lots of books. I am already through three of these - but my first and I think best so far is - ARCHERY - Steps to Success.

Suggest you get this and learn lots, then ask more questions and hol;d on to your dosh until through the course.

Goog luck......

Malcolm

Hey dude!
Hold fire and research the issue. Remember everyones advice will have their own personal bias and you need what's right for you.

Try reading some of this d o w n l o a d to get an understanding of what things do what and why and take a look through some threads on here that discuss inital set up.

In the end though we all want a bow where we can be like, dude!

(Ps. Dude is a great word.)
