approproiate draw weight for beginner to compound bows?

I'm a beginner to the world of archery, 21 year male. I'm a novice recurve bow archer, and have limited experience with a 35lb traditional bow. I'm looking to get a compound bow for target shooting and hunting. I've found a few people selling some great used bows, and have found a 2017 PSE Drive R for an absolute bargain. However, this bows lowest draw weight is 50lbs. Would you guys say this is okay? Or am I at risk of injuring myself and should I keep on looking for another bow that can be drawn at lesser of a weight. For some more info, I'm slightly taller than average height and weigh around 150lb

Another question, on the Shibuya there's an option for "Single mount" and "Double mount." What do those mean? And lastly, is the sight aperture on either of the sights suitable, or is there better after-market apertures that are better? I'm sort of thinking that is something I should be buying from my local shop so i can actually te...
