Default Looking for a bow for a 17 year old

I'm looking for a bow for a 17 year old brother. I was thinking the Fred Bear Element or equivilant. He has a 29" draw and would need something in the 50-60 pound range.

Appreciate everything so far guys. 50-60 lbs is probably all I'm looking for right now. I know most people probably shoot 60-70 lb bows but that is going to be too heavy for him...he's 17 but skin and bones right now haha. But if you have any further suggestions keep em coming. thanks!
