Razors Edge. My GF shot a cow with hers last year. It put the broadhead against the off side hide from 30 yds at 44 pounds of draw. She loves it.

Diamond razor edge because of its versatility. My wife loves hers.
But love of the wilderness is more than a hunger for what is always beyond reach; it is also an expression of loyalty to the earth which bore us and sustains us, the only home we shall ever know, the only paradise we ever need - if only we had eyes to see.

Razor edge is hard to beat, my wife just moved on to a Mathews Jewel (sweet bow, but $$$).  Razor shot well, was light weight, quiet, and very little vibration.

Only issues we had with the razor was fletching clearance on the riser, and cables, you have to pay alot of attention to the orientation of the vanes. Switched out sight, and rest right away, I really dislike the hostage rest.  Watch string stretch, and cam timing.

Overall the adjustability is great for someone starting out, allowing alot of adjustment for draw weight and length.  Awesome kids bow.

I would definitely look at the Mission Craze as well.
I am free only because thousands of brave Americans have given their lives for me...

I have the Razor edge and love it. And hey now there is nothing wrong with pink camo! Next upgrade to mine will be a custom pink & black string, but I already changed out sights, rest, and wrist sling so far and I am sure there will be more. The price was right and I can't justify spending a massive amount of money on a bow because of the brand name (not saying they are good or bad). For me it was a good purchase due to the price, the adjustable and how it fits me.

I just posted on this in the womens board as well, but just in case...  I have loved my Hoyt Selena. They don't make it anymore, but Hoyt makes a good bow. I will be selling mine after hunting season to upgrade to the Hoyt Carbon Element   :drool:

I love my Mathews but I think the Mission bow would be great draw length is easy to change, and the weight can easly be moved up. I shot my sons and it was quiet and smooth, Lucky shot carries these as well, they helped set my sons up for him

A yew longbow. She'd have more fun than you can shake a stick at!
I'd just like to remind everybody that it's about the hunting, not just the killing. In other words, it's about the total experience, the sport itself and the challenge involved. Bowhunting, done right, is a justifiable and honorable pursuit. Done for the wrong reasons, simply chalking up kills and seeking personal glory, it's taking away rather than giving back to a principled way of life that has to be experienced to be understood.
