Archery question opinions sought

[NorthernRaider]

Its quite interesting to note that bows such as the SAMICK SKB and SAMICK Polaris , Hungarian Horse bow, Korean Bow crop up time after time after time on lots of forums both archery and prepping types. Some are obviously chosen cos of
SIMPLICITY
IE a one piece lump of laminated wood, or a simple 3 piece take down type.
Others are chosen cos of
SIZE
IE the average horse bow is only a delightful 48 to 50 inches long.
and others because of
Price and Quality.

i'm pretty sure i'm not going to get even close to a one size fits all type bow, but thats not neccesarily a bad thing but I would like to see this thread continue to see how much more good advice we can get from our members.

REMEMBER NO COMPOUNDS OR X BOWS IN THIS THREAD Pretty please.

Another point that surfaces time after time is the range of draw weights, On American sites one often sees comments about 50 to 75 pound draw weights and similar draw weights from skilled practitioners of English long bows BUT, by a great margin you see far more posted advocating draw weights from 30/35 up to no more than 45 pounds draw as being MORE PRACTICAL for the UNSKILLED AND SEMI SKILLED Archers, plus ladies and youngsters.
