not wanting to spend a lot of money in my mind for a good bow is probably <500$? well you can pick up a lot of good bows for that price. Some brands to check out is PSE, Mission, Bear Archery. You could also check out some older models of Matthew, Hoyt, and some other brands. Go to a shop and see what feels best to you. Im sure you'll love hunting and shooting a bow. Its a great way to relax and get in the woods.
