Just ordered a Mandarin Duck Windrunner 68" Take Down Recurve. Please double check my accessories list and see if this works? Really excited to get started!
After a TON of research, I've ordered the Mandarin Duck Windrunner 68" Take Down Recurve below at 28 lbs (the 24lb was out of stock). My draw length is 30in (according to measurements) so I'm expecting a 32/33lb draw weight. I'm 6 feet tall and weight 150lbs and have been active all my life.

I did a ton more research today and found lists of necessary items and also thought about my personal set up and wanted to hear feedback from the community. I understand starting with this draw weight is a little higher than what most recommend on this site, but I'm already working out with bungee cords so I'm cool with the draw weight.
I found a site: https://www.alternativess.com that someone recommended and has quite a discount on lots of items. It seems like I'll be saving more than normal looking at prices, so I'll lay everything down here:
String
In some reviews, people said the string that comes with the bow is sub par, so looking to get a new string for it. What do you recommend and how many sets? I'm thinking two to start off with? These fit my 68" bow. I think due to the bow being 28bs, the less strands works?

Stringer
Does this low cost Spigarelli Bowstringer work?

Arm Guard
I like the magnet aspect of this Avalon Smart Arm Guard.

Arrow Rest
This is overwhelmingly recommended: Hoyt super rest. How many should I get?

Tab
These are the ones I settled on: Avalon Tec One Prime Tab and Cartel Smart Tab. The Avalon Tec One is a copy of the Fivics Saker 1 Tab and the Cartel is a copy of the AAE Cavalier. I'm leaning toward the Avalon.

Nocking Points
Seems like something I need.

Bow Stand
Don't want to leave my bow on the ground.

Quiver
Any recs? I was originally going for the one below, but it added $4 to the shipping cost so I'll just order something simple and cheaper. I have a cheap tripod bag and was thinking about getting an arrow tube anyway and that could suffice for a hip quiver/storage.

Arrows
THIS IS WHAT I NEED HELP WITH! Will either of the arrows work for a 28lb bow and a 30 inch draw? I plan on starting REALLY close to the target and as I get better, move back. I think from my calculations, I'm going to need a 600/700 arrow if Carbon. Is this correct? What would you recommend? What would work best with my bow/setup? I'm guessing the 500 is too stiff? These are a great price from my research and since I'm already ordering, only add $4 to the shipping and I save a bundle. Or picking up the 500 arrows from Dicks works too. Just trying to stay within budget since I'm on leave from work at the moment.

Target
There's a free range about a 30 min drive away, but I was thinking about starting in my garage and shooting short just to get the hang of my bow. And this has a $20 rebate making it $19.98. Can you shoot arrows at a crossbow speed bag?
All this minus the target and quiver comes out to be just under $130 including shipping ($24). Good deal? Do the arrows work for what I need? Should I get string wax? Will something else suffice? Am I missing anything else? Thank you so much and I can't wait to get started!
