Arrow selection help

Moved to compound 4 months ago, I'm training 3-5 times per week, 2h+ each and willing to start my first competitions at 50m. I shoot 4 arrows during training and my average score is around 36, usually 10, 9, 9, 8 almost never hit below 8 at 50m on a 80cm target.

I'm currently shooting cheap arrows (like 5 eur each) and need to buy a new set for the competition (need at least 6 identical arrows and have only 5) and is the cheapest piece of my gear.

Some specs:

  • "slow" bow (300fps at 60# 28'')
  • 30'' DL
  • 47# training to move to 50#

From my understanding from the Easton spine chart I should have 550 spine, probably 500 if I move to 50# (currently shooting with 600 with 100 gr points and they flight really well at 47#) but I have no clue regarding arrow diameter, point weight and fletch type.

Also, at my beginner level and the huge price differences, I'm not sure how much is worth spending on arrows, I was thinking between 10 and 15 euro per arrow, does it make sense?

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 . If there's any other top end sights you think are better, let me know. I want this to be the first and last sight that i ever buy, and price doesn't really matter. 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?
