Now days, just about all bow companies make a quality bow, and being a beginner you probably dont want to spend a fortune. I d try to find a local archery shop, because they will usually let you shoot a bow that your interested in, and are usually better at setting them up to fit you right. Shoot as many different ones as you can, and find what you can afford, but most of all, get something that fits you, and is comfortable for you to shoot. In my opinion, for a beginner bow, PSE makes several models that wont break the bank, and they do have good warranty, and customer service. You may also look into Browning as they also make some good entry level bows. Heck if you can affford it, oyu could sheck out Bowtechs and Mathews bows. Good luck with your decision.
