Help! Need Archery Set for 12 y.o.

[Blue_Runner]

Been a loooooong weekend and I'm just getting back in the saddle.

Willy, she's about 5 ft. tall and pretty stout. Turning 13 in January. She will be well supervised with it, although I'm not going to be much help with techniques cause I've never gotten into shooting a whole lot. Just dabbled and a while back at that. I know enough to help her get started.

I looked at the apprentice - nice bow for sure. Maybe a little too nice ($$$). I don't know how serious she is.....so maybe I need to start with something cheaper in case she just lays it down after a day or two.

I believe she is expecting a recurve style bow, although I think the compound would be better and more practical.

Looking through Craigslist now. Thanks for the help. Smoke - that one looks better than the one I was looking at!
