Everyone in here has great advice. Try a few bows out and find the one you like. Then take it home and practice. Practice a lot. 3-4 days a week. A lot of people, including myself, really praise John Dudley and his NockOn YouTube channel. He has an entire series called School of Nock on YouTube that will be extremely helpful to you.
Spend some time hiking around the public lands you plan to hunt. Get yourself familiarized with the layout, where the deer move, where the pinch-points are, bedding areas. Learn the movement of the local herds. Maybe even a book on White Tail. I have this one and there's a lot of great info.
Dont think you have to go crazy buying a bunch of high-end hunting clothing. Sitka and First Lite are real nice, but it's not required to get your deer. Most of my stuff was bought on clearance at Field and Stream.
There's a lot of great outlets for hunting information and white tail specific stuff out there. Some great podcasts to check out are the MeatEater, Wired to Hunt (very white tail specific), The Hunting Collective, Truth from the Stand. NockOn also has a podcast.
Lastly, try and find some folks in your area to talk with. Shoot with. Even hunt with. I became a member of Backcountry Hunters and Anglers this year and have met a lot of great people in my area, have worked alongside them with habitat projects and have a turkey camp coming up with folks I met through BHA.
Lastly, enjoy yourself. You may not be successful in your first year. Take the time to learn. You'll pick stuff up quick. You'll learn a lot by spending time in the woods. Learn to identify different food sources, different plants and animals in the area. Pick up as much as you can. The more you understand about the wildness you hunt, the better.
Happy hunting and good luck!
I recommend a QAD Hunter rest for your first drop-away rest. I know I said I'd let you make a decision, but I wanted to at least recommend this rest. It's what I use and have used for years. I've never had a reason to spend over $100 on the other models because this one is less than $50 and works flawlessly. Some people say fork over the extra cash for the more expensive one just because it's quieter, but in all honesty I can't tell a difference in noise between the two and have shot both extensively. As long as you keep the felt on the launcher there is nearly no noise at all. Here is link to the rest on Amazon. It's a fantastic rest. Shop around for other drop-sways such as Trophy Takers, and even Trophy Ridge has some nice ones, but I wanted to recommend the QAD as it's what I shoot and I am more than pleased with it. It has lasted me probably 8 years and still going strong. You may need to take it to a pro shop to get the rip cord installed on your cables. I wouldn't use a "football", clamp I would have them tie it in to your cable. My local shop does it for a dollar, or free if you buy it or bought your bow from them.
Ah nice, you'll have all kinds of options then! Lots of people like the B-Stinger stablizers, and I've heard good things about Doinker stabs as well!
If you're okay with a used stabilizer, check around on the Archerytalk classifieds. Can often get a used one in good shape for a better price than brand new.
I just picked one up and got the regular (non-flex) one. It still has some flex but is a good medium. This stays at home for butchering.

I’m my pack I carry either my Spiderco Bow River fixed blade or benchmade hidden canyon hunter. The benchmade saddle mountain skinner is also great too.

I have this quiver and absolutely love it.
Trophy Ridge Lite-1 5 Arrow Quiver
It can detach like the tight spot and has held up really well.
I use this https://www.amazon.com/Morrell-Yellow-Jacket-Stinger-Archery/dp/B07PKL1W4Y?th=1&psc=1
My friend has this https://www.amazon.com/Rinehart-Targets-28007-RinehartÂ-Broadhead/dp/B002UJ53EW/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?keywords=archery+target+broadhead&qid=1558280019&s=gateway&sprefix=archery+target+bro&sr=8-4
Trad people have something like this and they pin it to the bales https://www.amazon.com/TOPARCHERY-Lightweight-50x50x5cm-Shooting-Practice/dp/B074QKZ1MH/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?keywords=archery+target+foam+square&qid=1558280137&s=gateway&sprefix=archery+target+foam&sr=8-2
I recommend Scorpion Venom's liquid bowstring wax..you just rub the tube up and down your strings (it has a foam roller tip) then take your fingers and work it in. Good stuff.
I used these this season. I shoot a PSE stinger at 54#. Almost got a pass through and it only went 10 yards before it keeled over. Would definitely recommend.
Thunderhead 100 (5 Pack) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000IERKX8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_BlF7CbDDS05PE
Depends on how much you want to get into this. I have one of these. It does a great job. I am looking at upgrading but haven't decided on one. It's addicting.
I've only done venison and beef. Ground beef is good with the jerky gun.
Ive enjoyed this book.
If you replace "good hunting" with "extremely cheap and made for kids" you could go for this:

I wear relatively thin gloves, then stick a handwarmer or two in a waist warmer thing. Like this.
I started with this book and then I got the sequel
I have a Nikon I'll part with for a reasonable offer.

To add to this - I highly recommend this book to all hunters (bow and rifle alike):
https://www.amazon.com/Tracking-Wounded-Deer-3rd-Find-ebook/dp/B07D3ZBQ4N/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=tracking+wounded+deer&qid=1574664284&sr=8-6

At some point - you might not make the perfect shot; why not arm your self with some knowledge and some of the experience of others in tracking game.
I second this and also suggest the add a tray. mine handles 2 extra trays no problem and 4 as long as I don't try to max out each tray
Now I haven't read it yet, but I'm told there is more info in this book than anywhere else.
I do have it on order and plan to study the hell out of it this year as I'm planning a high-er country early season bow hunt in CO.

I've used a single pin for nearly a decade now.
I use Impact Archery's Cosmic apeture
I put this on a Savage Quick click Ranger sliding system, which are really hard to find anymore if you can find one at all.
I use the savage for 2 major reasons.
Single pin has pros and cons.
Pros are simplicity, no confusion, clear sight window and durability.
Cons... it requires movement to adjust and you have to remember to adjust it...which some find difficult with buck fever.
I combat both by leaving it set at 20 yards. I can shoot point blank to about 28 yards like this. Anything farther I either wait till they get closer or they're far enough away I have time to adjust and they're far enough away the slight movement doesn't spook them.
That said, I hunt in Michigan and where it's usually really thick cover. Over 100 deer taken and only one shot over 30 yards and 95% from a tree stand.
If you hunt out west or on open Plains 40 is the low end and 60-80 is common...a single pin may not be the best option for that.
