Those arrow's that were suggested sure seem small are they right? I was thinking more like a 2213 or 2117.

Well, I shoot 1816's from a 40lb recurve, 2213 is way too heavy spine. Its fairly common to shoot 2016s from a 50lb longbow, and 2018's from a 55lbs longbow. I shoot 2216's from my 60lb recurve. Just giving you an idea of what most shooters use.

Its tillered for split fingers. As Bernie said, all manufactured bows are tillered for split finger. No big deal, just raise the normal nock a tad and you will be fine.
