Go with carbons. Gold Tips would be a good one. As BhamFred asked, you'll need to know how much you're pulling and your draw length to determine what spine to start with. From there you'll need to determine what grain head you want to use. I would go with at least 150gr. The next step will be bare shaft tuning the bow. When you get a chance do an Internet search on "bare shaft tuning a recurve". It's not a hard process, but you'll need access to an arrow saw. I would also recommend getting some brass inserts for whatever arrow you choose. The problem most people have bare shaft tuning a bow is being over spined. That why you start out with a full length shaft and have the brass inserts handy in case you need the extra weight up front.
