Bow: any quality, inexpensive bow with good resale value if they choose to give up the sport
Arrows: Carbon arrows, since they will take a pounding with a new archer
Rest: a simple effective prong type rest
Stabilizer: dont care but he should have something
Release: Stanislawski back tension release. I honestly feel if more people learned to shoot with this release and use back tension they would be much better hunters, start them with this for a few months then for hunting they can switch.
or
glove/tab:
Sight: 1 pin 20 yds...since they are new, they should be limiting their shots to this distance anyways...
Well thats my opinions, go ahead trash away
