as a starter bow the man kung is pretty good. sights are rudimentary, comes with a whisker biscuit type rest. wife uses one and is happy with it. my concern over 2nd hand bows is how abused has it been. dry firing etc.
EK make reasonable starter bow too. or spend the big bucks and get a pse, bowtech etc
Drive up to advanced archery in Auckland. They will set you up.
With wheels or not? I shoot between 50-70lb longbows and recurves, but wouldn't recommend starting so heavy. Best to start at 30lb or so. All about the holding weight. If you're talking wheel bows, no idea. All I know is their holding weight is like my kid's bow, so no worries there.
the Bear RTH package are hard to beat as a starter deal!
like the G2 Cruzer if you want maximum versatility in weight and DL
I personally go with the Species EV
You will rapidly want to upgrade the rest and sight, but it is still something under 500$ to star and fun to shoot
Entirely depends on if you are wanting a compound bow or a traditional bow (recurve/longbow etc)
I like my pse atk hunter package. Would change the sights though. A 1 pin instead of 5 pin.
The best thing is to go to a reputable archery store or join an archery club so that you can try different bows and get a feel about what is right for you.
Bear in mind that bows need to be set up for you and your physique and arrows tailored to the bow and draw length.
It is a simple concept, but not so simple in execution!
