RE: new to bowhunting
The only advice I can give you is to go to your local pro shop and talk to the owner.
Ask to see and try all the diffrent bows he or she sells and then pick the one thats feels right for you.
Most shops will offer package deals that could save you some money and while your there you can have them make any adjustments and make sure your bow is tuned and ready for you to shoot.
Make sure you ask alot of questions draw length , wheight , arrows , fieldtip and broadhead grain wheight.
