I would recommend a bow by Matthews Mission - see http://missionarchery.com/ The Craze is a good affordable bow. This is the economy line by Matthews. They are still good bows, but they are more affordable in price. And your best bet is to find a good archery shop selling this bow that has a shooting range and people willing to set up your bow for you. They will send you out the door with a product ready to use. You can purchase the release and dropdown site separately ahead of time to save a little money. For this bow we used the dropdown rest by Quality Archer Designs (QAD) ($60) and the Tru Ball Stinger Release ($40). I like this release because it does not have a hair-trigger like other releases. Ask about a whisker biscuit type rest - many like this one too. You should be able to get all of this and maybe even a target for a little under $500.
