Kudos for a great way to start. I can't tell you how many times I've seen newbies in a big box store looking to buy a bow 2 days before the season without having ever shot before. Good advice here. Go to a pro shop. Get an idea of what your budget is and shoot as many bows in your price range as you can. Only you can tell what feels good to you! Make sure whatever bow you have fits you draw length and poundage wise and you'll be off to a great start!
