You can always buy heavier limbs later... they aren't that expensive.... that's one of the reasons to buy a take-down bow! Not always, but most of the time, the "handed" bow you need doesn't correspond to your dominant hand, but your dominant EYE. Also, 3 Rivers Archery and Lancaster Archery are companies with good reputations when you are looking to expand your kit."
"I will say, for those who are not at least moderately experienced with archery, a 55 lbs recurve is a lot to handle for a first bow. There is not any let off like with a compound and you'll have to be able to hold all of it while you line up your shot (as a rule of thumb +5 lbs per inch if you draw past 28" to your anchor point). You can "defeat this" with "instinctive" archery styles, but you'll still want to start with a lower poundage bow to learn how to do this. I added a felt arrow rest, some cat whisker style string silencers, put some loop side tape (the fuzzy part of velcro) where the string slaps the limbs (where it hooks onto the limbs) and a large rubber washer between the riser and limb (one at each end). I think some of this may be overkill, but to me it's never a bad thing to give up a few feet per second if I can be quiet when I shoot. This bow is great for anyone looking for an entry level kit for target practice or hunting."
"Great bow!"

Determining what is right for the individual greatly depends on the skill level and what that person hopes to achieve as an archer. The learning experience can be greatly hindered if a new archer struggles to draw their bow, sacrificing the ability to focus on form and consistency. Typically, we would recommend sticking to the lower draw weights until you are comfortable shooting your new bow. Any archer is going to naturally progress the more they use their bow, which will eventually lead to stepping up the draw weight. However, rest assured that it is very simply and includes a well illustrated and descriptive instructional booklet with links for videos on the manufacturer website. The bow consists of three main components: the riser/handle, a pair of matching limbs (upper and lower), and a string. It’s not recommended to leave a bow strung for any long period of time, so it’s best to remove the string after each use. They are also capable of mounting just about any sight and quiver set up that is preferred and has a threaded insert for either a stabilizer or a bow fishing reel, depending on the application. All Southwest Archery limb tips are reinforced making them fast flight and flemish string compatible.

"If I had to nitpick, it would be that the bolts use a hex key (included) rather than a finger screw to secure the limbs to the riser."
"I liked the bow very much till the fiberglass on one of the limbs cracked/split for about a 1/4 the length of the bottom limb."
"I would suggest buying just the bow and ordering a stringer seperate that has good reviews online."
"When her younger brother wants a bow we will purchase the next bow with her desired pull weight, trade limbs with her present brace and they both have bows they can enjoy for many years."
"The arrow rest and takedown are included and I don't mind requiring an allen wrench to install the limbs."
"The following is a note for newbies: Do not dry fire the bow, that is, pull the string back and let go of it with no arrow in place."
"The string dose not want to roll out when pulling it on, yet comes back off easy enough when done shooting."
