Thanks guys, I sincerely appreciate the warm welcomes! I decided to go ahead and buy what ther bow maker (Rob) said I needed for my bow. I bought the Beman 500 carbon shafts and will be using a 125 grain point.
After a few days of practice now, my biggest concern is getting a solid anchor. My groups have reduced and the wobbly arrow flight is gone. I just bought some DVDs called "Masters of the Barebow, Vol. 1 and 2" and I hope to learn a little about technique from these.
I'm still hoping to be able to hunt with the recurve this year, but it'll come down to how good I can get in the next month or so.
Oh, and I'm right eye dominant. I'm learning to shoot with both eyes open now. It's taking some practice, but coming along nicely.
