Recurve bow or straight bow is suitable for beginners.

Du Niang said: (The biggest advantage of the straight bow is that it is easy to use and suitable for beginners to practice. However, due to the limitation of its own materials, the straight bow has the shortest range and the slowest arrow speed compared with the compound bow and recurve bow, which is also a very important reason why the straight bow is gradually eliminated. In the current international archery competition, no one has used the straight bow as the competition equipment. But if it is only for daily fitness and entertainment, then the straight bow can fully meet your needs.

If you are going to buy a bow and want to use it for a long time, I personally suggest that you learn from recurve bow. It's not difficult to learn. I am a girl. When I was in college, I worked as a recurve bow coach in an archery hall. At that time, I never learned recurve bow 1 or missed the target in 2 hours. After I learned the standard posture, I just kept practicing. I practice harder and make rapid progress. My arm may be sore except at the beginning. You'll get used to it later. Therefore, I personally suggest learning from recurve bow directly, starting with a lower number of pounds. For beginners, the main thing is whether you can pull the string and hold the bow steadily. The posture is very important.
