That black hunter on amazon is an amazing bow for the money…i mean…they are stupidly cheap and bout the only thing needed to make them feel like a very expensive bow is a decent flemish string..one i shot was very well built..ive heard of a few stories about delaminating but they sent it back and had a brand new one at no cost..quality may have fallen but they were good. You could go the route of an older made in usa bow..but youll be limited on string material and they just dont shoot as good as modern bows do or as fast…i built a ben pearson mustang out for my brother and it is an awsome bow…but nothing even close to modern bows..but for a beginner, you cant beat the options given above, good luck
