Needing help on deciding for a more customizable bow or new arrows

so after my last post on arrows with plastic feathers and their feathers breaking off i bought an arrow rest, specifically this one;

arrow rest:

problem is, its made for a recurve bow aka not mine, my bow doesnt have attachments and holes / other stuff to attach an arrow rest etc to. (like here)

mine instead is pretty plain.

black stuff in the middle is just soft and flat.

so i could buy the mankun bow which i could attach an arrow rest to etc (its also a good 20$ less expensive)but it has half the draw weight, and i want my arrows to shoot hard and fast (i also have no problem drawing this one)

now i could buy arrows with natural feathers but im having issues deciding.

my bow is av. 40 lbs

the mankun is av. 20 lbs (pullweight)

so to the experts here, whats the better option, mankun and arrow rest (already have arrows)

or old bow but natural feathers

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. It's ad

Having Trouble Figuring out a Backstop Situation

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'
