Question BenPearson Hunter 709

Took it down from the pegs where it has been sitting for far,far too long gathering dust.
IIRC I paid $50 for it in 2000 or so when introducing a youngster to archery; I gave him a nice little Martin that Christmas- we had a lot of fun back then. Well, that was a long time ago now... Cleaned it up, waxed the string & strung it. Now all I need are some arrows.
One reason it's been hung up,honestly, is that I have little faith( born out by experiences) in the only truly local shop. My last attempt at purchasing arrows yielded 6 cedar shafts which may have been assembled by a drunk monkey; granted there was no charge but they were better suited for kindling.
So, this bow is 50#@ 28". My preference would be to shoot cedar, previously shot aluminum arrows, but I would appreciate suggestions, opinions, etc.
