RE: holy moly!! which bow? (beginner)
If you have a couple pro shops in the area, go and check them out. A good shop will allow you to shoot a few bows and see which you find the most enjoyable to shoot and fits you well. Also, they will be able to point you in the right direction with accesories that will be a good starter bow. It really depends a lot on how much you want to spend, and what you feel most comfortable shooting.
