With my weird, recurring shoulder/back issue my compound bow has remained almost unused for a few months now. Just as I’d spent £80 on a new rest too! I’m not sure I want the £200ish option of lighter limbs but I’m wondering if I could try something like a cheap AFB until I’m back to feeling confident using my Origin (that might never happen); I’m drawing okay but there’s just a niggle there that’s stopping me just getting on with it.
Is this a good idea or daft? I’d quite like to try a “simple” bow anyway so a bells and whistles recurve isn’t really appropriate.
Merlin has some for under £100 which look okay; what would be really handy is if I could use my current arrows (Easton Powerflights and ACGs) but I’m thinking they might be too stiff and too short?
I’ve stayed with NFAS, I’ve rejoined our club but I’m a bit stuck. I’ve always had a slightly odd nervousness about my Mybo after a disastrous experience with hand held releases; this shoulder niggle isn’t helping. However I also do a lot of other stuff and REALLY don’t want to take myself out of action doing archery for those sports.
