Advice on budget Turkish bow with low draw weight that I can learn thumb draw technique on.

Howdy arrow spitters I am in need of advice! Thus far I've only owned take down recurves where I've always shot off the shelf using the split finger mediterranean draw. I recently purchased two thumb rings, a stiff copper one and a flexible leather one. Now I want to buy a budget low draw weight (#30) asiatic recurve bow and the short Ottoman/Turkish style has caught my eye. From what I've read they are snappy and flat shooting bows that are surprisingly fast for their length and draw weight. I've narrowed it down to three options: the Alibow fiberglass Turkish bow with ox horn string bridges ($100), the Arrouha turkish bow ($129) and the Deer Seeker turkish bow ($159). Prices include shipping but not tax. Any archers with experience shooting any of these three or know someone who has owned one and can relay their experience, advice on which one would be best to learn thumb draw on would be very appreciated!

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

This is the type of opinion that is subject to change.

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.

A guide to dealing with target panic

I wanted to make a contribution to the useful copy pastas/reference guides, so here's an unofficial guide to target panic. It used to be that target panic was the affliction that must not be named. It was seen as something unescapable, something that could very well end an archer's career. Fortunately, we now have a much better understanding of what target panic is and how we can treat it. This has made it much easier to discuss it. Which is a very good thing, because target panic is common. If you're reading this, you probably have (had) it yourself or know someone who has it. What is target panic? Target panic is basically your brain going on auto-pilot. A very dumb auto-pilot. There are two basic flavours: The premature release type. You go through your shot process as usually, but before you reach anchor your body is like RELEASE! LOOSE! LET THAT ARROW FLY! And whoosh goes your arrow, towards a spot it wasn't supposed to go. The can't release type. You&#
