Beginner question

So my boyfriend knows I have an interest in archery and he went out and bought me a bow. When I got the bow I realized it was for pre-teens, intermediate level. Without going into the boring details it would be somewhat difficult to return the bow, but could be done.

But my questions is, is this still something I could learn on just fine and then transition to an adult bow at a later time? Or is it gonna mess me up?

It is a recurve bow. 45" tip to tip. Up to 20lb draw weight and up to 26 draw length. 8 inch brace height. Let off:65%.

I'm 5'7.

Shibuya vs Axcel vs other top end sights?

So my budget has increased and i decided i'm going for a top-level sight for the target style recurve i'm building. It seems that Shibuya and Axcel are the top end, so for anyone who has experience with either one of them, or preferably both, could you tell me the differences, pros and cons, and which one is the best value? i'm planning on buying the most expensive, so the Axcel Achieve XP - Recurve or the Shibuya Ultima RC PRO Carbon Sight .

Another question, on the Shibuya there's an option for "Single mount" and "Double mount." What do those mean? And lastly, is the sight aperture on either of the sights suitable, or is there better after-market apertures that are better? I'm sort of thinking that is something I should be buying from my local shop so i can actually te...

Is there any reason mediterranean and slavic draw shoot from opposite sides of the bow

When the release imparts the same twist on the string? It was my understanding that mediterranean draw has the arrow on the side opposite of the bow of the draw hand because of the twist imparted on the string affecting the arrow on release but that should mean that slavic draw would suffer from that problem. Am I missing something with this? Shouldn't that mean you could use a mediterranean draw on the same side of the bow as the draw hand and not have issues?
