Hello there, I’m quite new to archery. I started in February by joining an archery club and have had around 2 months of lessons (once per week).

I recently bought a Mandarin Duck takedown recurve bow at 25 lbs and got all my gear as well (quiver, arrows, etc.).

I’m trying to avoid having to buy new limbs and arrows over time, so I’m wondering if it’s realistically possible to progress this way. I’m also quite skinny and underweight for my height (183 cm, around 51 kg), so I’m not sure how much that affects progression.

Any advice or personal experiences would be really appreciated, especially from people who started out with a similar build!
