I would recomend a good proshop. They can show you all the differnt models and styles in your price range. As well as that they can fit you for drawlength and weight. You will pay a little more for the bow, but the service you get is priceless! As for a brand, to be honest, for a hunting bow I don't think you can realy buy a "bad" bow, pick one that feels good to you, and that you are comfortable with. Once you start I think you will be hooked. I started when I was your age, and love it as much at 33 as I did at 14.
