Good starting point. I would encourage you to check out reviews on several brands, go to local shops, and chat with the guys. As you evolve in the sport and your skills develop, you may want to eventually grow into higher-end equipment. The analogy I give in my casting classes is that there are tools branded from Walmart/Canadian Tire and tools from Milwaukee and Snap-on. Only a tradesman will see the difference.
