Artemis relic bow aside, Garuda's Spine is probably the best but you can't buy those since they are untradable. Next best for Bard is probably a the Giantsgall bow which you can buy or get as a drop from Skirmish. The nice thing about the Giantsgall bow is that it is meldable, unlike the Garuda and Ifrit bows.

Alesones's Songbow does nice damage... unless you miss due to the accuracy handicap. ^^;

Anyway, there are a lot of bows to choose from and the Archer/Bard forum would be better place to discuss that with more knowledgeable players who pay attention to stats and numbers.

In the meantime, good luck with the mining and material farming!
thanks for all of the great advice. feeling much more confident now. I still want the Sarnga bow, but I'll focus on something else for now.
