Best begginer recurve bow? PSE RazorBack? Samick Sage? Something else? Advice please

By

Hello.

I’m looking into getting into archery with my dad (ammo shortage for guns is pushing is to look for a new hobby haha) so thought we’d look into archery. I believe I’ve gotten to grips with the basics in what I’m looking for. I’m 5”3 at 105lb. Suspect my draw length is about 24-25” from what I measured. And think I’m looking for a 62” bow with a 20lb draw weight. Looking for a recurve. Does that sound about normal?

We went to the archery shop today and the lady didn’t have much stock for recurves. I got to get a feel at the Razorback and it felt pretty good. Didnt get to shoot it though to try it. I was looking elsewhere online too and saw some others like the samick sage. Wanted to know what people recommend. Wasn’t planning on spending more than 150$ just for the bow. Also I’m left handed so it’ll have to be a model that’s for lefties haha. Thanks and any guidance will be appreciated. :) I’m getting too lost in the choices so need someone to put me back on track.

I would take a takedown recurve bow as my primary SHTF/bugout weapon

This is the type of opinion that is subject to change. In the near future, deteriorating political, economic, and social circumstances may result in many people having to rely on weapons to obtain food and defend themselves on a regular basis. Alternately, some people desire to leave civilization for a life of self-sufficiency in the wilderness, perhaps temporarily, and will encounter the same challenges. Generally, firearms are the preferred weapons among people who seek to prepare themselves for these events. I have owned and used a wide variety of firearms over many years and own several right now. If I had to pick one weapon to serve as a primary weapon (a full-size weapon intended to be used offensively, such as for hunting, and carried in the hand or by sling as opposed to a secondary weapon, which is complimentary, used defensively and carried on-person and possibly concealed, such as a handgun) I just might prefer my ILF recurve over any kind of rifle or shotgun.

Having Trouble Figuring out a Backstop Situation

By
When I was around thirteen, I got my first recurve bow, and every weekend I practiced really diligently. I feel like I got pretty good for a casual archer. But having to wait for the weekend and going to the same indoor range just to shoot my bow for an hour or two got boring. So as life got busier, I stopped shooting as much. Alas, this is my sad tale. Now I'm 22, I live in a new area, and got a new awesome 50# recurve bow! The only problem is, I don't have the time or the money to go to an indoor range, and I'd just run into the same problem. I feel like my backyard is big enough, I called the city and they said so long as I'm not shooting at other people's houses or if I have a large enough structure in the path of my shot, I was clear to shoot in my yard. At the moment I'm looking at shooting at the side of my garage where it's probably around 10ft wide and about as tall. I don't think I have quite 30ft of distance, maybe not even 25ft, but don'
