About Willow longbow (u)

"An unstrung willow longbow; I need a bowstring for this."

Willow longbow (u) is a members-only unstrung longbow cut from willow logs with a knife at 40 Fletching (41.5 XP). Stringing it with a bow string at the same level grants another 41.5 XP and produces the willow longbow, a popular high-alch stock for early-Fletching gp/hr and one of the classic 'Fletch-and-alch' Magic training feeders.

Market Strategy

  • Sits at the heart of the willow-longbow alch chain - demand tracks 55-89 Magic trainers.
  • GE buy limit 10,000 per 4 hours supports bulk supplier flow.
  • Profit per unit is thin; volume from bots and Fletching trainers keeps the spread tight.
  • High alch 96 gp is the floor that anchors GE price; new tax rules pull the floor down.

Trading Tips

Watch willow log spot price - tight spreads collapse the unstrung margin first.
Stockpile during double-Fletching weekends when output volume floods the GE.
