Welcome to the forums first of all, and i just purchased my first bow this season after 6 years of rifle hunting, had around the same price range as you and for $575 (including ready to shoot bow, arrows, and a cheap target, and release) i got the PSE RTS Stinger and love it, get the 50-60# set up and its a bow you will have for a long time if you take care of.

P.S. It comes with a whisker biscuit(could always change this out based on preference), quiver, site, nockin loop, string silencer.

Goodluck
