As far as your arrow questions, I’d like to say that for me keeping it simple means wood arrows. I have shot all types but making arrows myself from purchesed wood shafts is rewarding and lets you customize them how you want. You don’t need much to get started. Cedar shafts are very easily found and I usually stain them, but not always. Put a clear coat of some type on them. You will need a fletcher to lay the feathers on but not much more. Every year I make a dozen and hunt with the new and target shoot the old. Wood arrows are quieter in a back quiver and they don’t seem to have issues like nocks popping out of inserts when you hit a hard stump. You can cut them yourself to lenght without a special saw. Wood is simple and quiet.
