My children (10 and 8) have expressed interest in archery and I would like to get them started.
I have the choice among 12, 16, 18, 20, and 22# draw weight for a recurve bow -- which is the most appropriate for a beginner (have shot bows at Fish & Wildlife events, scouts, etc. but that is the limit of experience) ?
Don't be afraid to suggest 12# if that is what is most appropriate -- we can always upgrade later and trade or give bow to friends and family as they age if they will age out of it quickly.
Thanks so much
