Default RE: What draw weight should I use

Remember, you're only holding between 13-18lbs at full draw with your compound, and you're probably using a wrist release rather than fingers. With a recurve you're going to be holding the whole shebang on your fingers. I'd start with a cheapo used recurve in 30-35# range and get your form down before progressing to a hunting weight bow.
