I decided to try a recurve after using a compound. The compound was rigged by the shop, but I' d like to set this up and finish the arrows myself.

I would appreciate suggestions on what needs to be done to the bow such as a soft material on the shelf where the arrow sits or a rest like the compound, silencers and nocking markers on the string, etc. The bow weight is 45 pounds.

With arrows is there a rule of thumb as to type, weight, diameter, length, type and weight of broadhead, feathers or plastic, etc.

Lastly, for the moment at least, is there a frequent questions section or a basic facts area anywhere on the site?

Thanks,
Ed
