It's within my draw length and I should be able to pull off at least 33# draw weight with it. (Listed is 30-35#)
Well I'll throw in my two cents since no one's linked a specific model yet.
$50 - 35lb ambidextrous recurve bow
It's a youth bow but I've had no issue with the size of it as an adult. It's a lowish poundage as others have recommended. It's also quite cheap. So if you try it and decide you're not super into archery, you're not out over $100 on a nicer bow. I've been LARPing with it for a couple years. Durability is not an issue as I've spent large amounts of time both shooting with it and blocking weapon strikes with it.
As for learning to shoot the thing, I'll leave that to someone with more traditional archery experience than myself. I believe many gun ranges actually have archery instruction if that's convenient for you. Just make sure you get training before trying to shoot. You'd be surprised the angles those arrows can fly when you shoot improperly. And don't be fooled by the relatively low poundage, that's plenty to put an arrow through someone.
