Default what bow for 15 year old first time bow hunter?

hi everyone. im 15 years old
last season i bought a pse silverhawk bow for 100 dollars online thinking it would be good to hunt with. it sucked. didnt even end up hunting with it at all.
i have been hunting for 4 years now with a gun and would like to be able to experience the benefits of a longer season and the more thrill of hunting with a bow.
is there a good bow that you could reccommend to me to hunt deer with thats not a huge amont of money?
thanks

Check out the Diamond line if you are looking for an entry level priced bow. The Edge in particular is a very popular starter bow. It has a very wide range of adjustment.

Check out the Reflex bows or Diamond line up. Make sure that the draw lengths can be lengthen on which ever bow you get for a few more years.

Here we go!Isn't the Reflex an off-shoot (no pun intended) of Hoyt?
