I am looking into getting into the sport and don't really want to use my Martin (too nice a finish to mess up) so I am looking for a relatively inexpensive recurve, preferably a takedown, that I can effectively set up without any worries of ruining the bow. I imagine it will probably take a beating on a regular basis in an aluminum boat not to mention that I might have to drill the riser to mount various accessories; what would you recommend I turn my attention to in the start of my search?

Thanks guys.
