Wow! Not an easy choice. I just love number 3 and plan to do this bow soon (thanks Bubby), and your "Hunger Games Bow" is simple and beautiful, but I have to go with number one, because I am awestruck that anyone could overcome so many flaws in a piece of wood and end up with something both interesting and useful (actually the "medicine chest" didn't hurt any). I think the "medicine chest" is a stroke of genius, truly making this a "survival bow".
