I would want a bow built to last and that I could depend on. Of all my bows that would be a Frontier 66. It was designed with that kind of scenario in mind. God bless, Steve

Bob Lee, Elite (basic model)but for a few more $  a bullet proof bow riser made of black phenolic would be ideal

$800-$900 is a chunk of change but unfortunately leaves you below many of the "premier" bows.  Does it have to be new?  There are lots of deals in the classifieds, I'd be very reluctant to drop that kind of money on a bow I wasn't familiar with.  There are lots of good shooting bows out there but each has it's own feel and what I like you might not.

For a   new bow in that price category I'd look at Kota bows, I've never had one but spent some time with them at a shoot a while back.  Very impressive and several new ones were below your price.

Another bow that appeals to me in your price range is the new Bear '59 Kodiak reproduction...a real looker and I've read they shoot as well as they look.

I will not order/buy any custom bow for that kind of money without first seeing/shooting it.  You could end up with a expensive wall hanger.

I`d try to find a Harrison HHC around 53lbs.RC

Used 3 pc ACS CX 64" and 50#    

I'd call Ed Scott.

How did you know???  Even better reason for a shipwreck adventure!!

Great Northern Jackknife Bushbow 50@28 Hickory limbs and a Shedua Riser. $800-$900 ain't enough loot for another Widow.

If they are female natives then i would take a cupid's bow for sure.

for real? and have to rely on it to survive? black widow PL one piece. for reliability

my  48'' samick horse bow quick as possum poo off Glass and a good knife and river cane arrows

opps forgot to add first aid kit  

For a little more $ It would have to be a Widow, probably a PCH for me. There just a good bunch & there bows are tuff as nails.
