>>2540865Correct, it's a great /out/ hobby.
>>2541967If you've got a club, try different limb weights there, and see with what you feel the most comfortable, what poundage can you shoot for and hour and a half at a time without shaking, exhaustion and running out of breath. Then go five pounds less. You can buy a takedown and then increase poundage as you grow, makes it much easier and you stick to the raiser you know.
>>2541931Barebow means no additions at all, no marked nock point, no painted arrows, no sights, no arrow rest, no string wrap, no nothing. They say it's the most primitive and natural way of archery, but to me it's retarded. Surely a caveman would not care about being a purist and marked a spot on his bowstring to make it more consistent. I shoot off shelf with nock point marked on bowstring, and it's loads of fun, but you do you. Have fun!
