Archery question opinions sought

[NorthernRaider]

Guys I was just wondering if you just wanted a " Just in case" bow, a simple basic flat bow / log bow type thing without bells n whistles or pullies etc

What bow would you buy and what would you consider the lowest PRACTICAL draw weight for a bog standard bow ?

If cash was tight would you go for a cheaper basic bow like the Barnett Sportsflight 25pound draw bow

Or have you solid reasons for believing you need to get something better just for a basic bow for EDC duty?

Could I get some opinions / suggestions for a bog standard basic EDC bow that could be picked up and used by the average family member??

Forgot to say that what I'm looking for is a basic bow that can be reccomended to other preppers taking up the bow who dont want the complications of compound bow, I' trying to identify a good enough basic bow to help people get started.
