Only ONE Survival BOW

Or a club??!!

A solid fiberglass longbow is close to indestructible, reasonable weight to carry and can do multiple other things: a fishing pole, walking stick, probe, spring for a spring trap, tent pole, spear, and in a pinch one could string it with small gauge stainless cable and use it as a bow saw.

Not even a year has past since I posted on this topic. I originally selected a Black Widow recurve. Now that bow is gone replaced by a Black Widow PLX. Still built like tank, but no need for a stringer, and hits hard.

Why are so many people choosing recurvs for a survival bow?.
