I would get my hands on as many bows as possible and shoot, shoot, shoot. That's only way figure out which bow will work for you. I shot around 20 bows before I got my Experience. That being said there is tons of bow reveiws online. Figure out how much you want to spend, if you want a solo our double cam and narrow it down. Then shoot some more.

The Bowtech Fuel, or the Infinite Edge Pro would fit the confines of what you are searching for.

just make sure you try as many different models in your range and go with the one you find feels best for you...

With a weight range like that the Mission Craze is also another option..wont break the bank but very adjustable...

http://missionarchery.com/product/craze/

The weight and draw can grow with you...the advanced dual cam system allows you to go from 15 to 70 lbs of draw weight and 19 to 30 inches of draw length, all with the comfort of up to 80% ...

However if you are truely at 29" draw already...you may think of a bow that will go LD -long draw ...

X2 if OP finds a specific draw weight...draw length is easy adjustable on the Viper Models...but an adjustable from 40-70lbs and already 29" draw limits choices...If Op was to choose a 60 Lb bow...10+ lbs down to 50 lb...and grow into poundage...perfect Choice...
