    How quickly does a beginner outgrow limbs?

    Thanks for the comment Chuffalump, makes perfect sense. I shot 100 arrows last night with 26lb on the fingers. Was definitely done by the time I finished (although don't feel bad today). Spoke to the club equipment guy and I can swap out my loan limbs whenever I like in the next 3 months...

    How quickly does a beginner outgrow limbs?

    Thanks fbirder. I spoke to people at the club, they agree and said to just grab a dozen Easton Platinum XX75 spined to match the limbs I buy and not to warry about it too much

    Thank you. I did eye those up as "indoor arrows" :)

    How quickly does a beginner outgrow limbs?

    Thanks for the response. I guess "it's impossible to say" makes sense really. I guess it's a conversation I need to have when the time comes with 1 of the experienced archers at my club who've seen me shoot (2 of my planned 3 hour sessions are "intermediate classes"). Have you any tips on what...

    How quickly does a beginner outgrow limbs?

    Morning folks, I'm about to take my last session of my beginners class tonight (a mock tournament to teach us about scoring I believe) and have already signed up to join the club as soon as it finishes (going on Wednesday night to do the paperwork, get keys for the range etc etc). I've...

    On the bright side, when you're driving it weighs twice as much! ;) Seriously, be careful man, it's not going to be fun up there tomorrow

    The facilities on tap are a MASSIVE part of why I've picked the club. Who doesn't want to cook themselves a bacon butty and make a steaming cup of coffee and then shoot a few ends? I'm not sure I'll be anywhere near competition worthy by April but if at all possible I'll try and get up to...

    Thanks. I'm enjoying it so far (even with the big welts on my arm because I suck at keeping my arm out of the way) and think I'm pretty much sure to be joining the club. It seems from looking around / reading that I'm being spoilt in my local club, 16 mile drive away but has it's own permanent...

    I'm a very new archer (hell I'm not even officially an archer yet, I'm only 1 session into my beginners course) but I'm currently reading / watching almost everything I can find. I've really enjoyed reading this whole thread this afternoon, thanks for posting the thread.
