I would decide based on what wood you have.  What is easy with one piece of wood is imposable with another. What do you have to work with?
Everything happens for a reason, sometimes the reason is you made a bad decision.

A simple flat bow will be the easiest for a first timer. Have you read George Tsoukalas' board bow site? Everything you need to know is in there!  ;)     Pat

The Tim Baker beginner bow. A 1x2 of red oak roughed into a long D bow. An excellent bow, and easy to make.
