ORIGINAL: Wingbone
I started out with a Martin as well. They make a good, quality, bow at a reasonable price. Whether or not you graduate to a more expensive bow, you will be well served by a Martin.
Exactly Wingbone, very good bows.
There are also many, many bear recurve's out there that you should be able to pick up cheap. If you don't like the bow turn around and sell It on Ebay or something. Inthebox said It right as well, keep it light (45lb range) when starting out. Get good form, consistent anchor points and build those muscles up so eventually you can go up In weight If that's what you want to do. 45lbs will do the job as well on a deer with the corrrect set up.
Have fun and good luck!!
