I will agree with you about starting with a lighter bow. I did the same thing well almost I started with a 25 pound bow. I wanted to work on form and muscle memory before trying something heaver, some guys than let me use their 34 pound bow. I have to tell you it all about putting in the time at the practice field.
Good Luck

Welcome E. Look in the "Shooter's Forum" if you haven't already. Why don't you chronicle your shooting development here? Get a lot of good help that way.

An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

Welcome Devin!

While we are still human and prone to make mistakes, rest assured that you will encounter  valliant efforts to assist you.

As you become more active, fewer layers will be required to keep you comfortable for the fire is warm.

Welcome to the forum---lots of great information and people here to assist.  In addition to what is here, you might want to consider joining a traditional club and taping into the assistance from the members.  My club actively recruits new archers and offers unlimited help.

Welcome, but you realize it's all down hill from here...  Pretty soon you will want to know about arrows, then how to make arrows, then how to harvest your own wood for arrows, then how to knap your own points....and on and on...

Then you will want to explore the different bows.  You will find yourself buying or trading bows just to see what the wood looks like, or what all the fuss is over this or that style bow.

Split-finger, three-under, instinctive, gap...

It's a slippery slope my friend...buckle up and hang on, it'll be fun.
