The Willow longbow is a longbow stronger than the oak longbow which can use arrows up to and including mithril. The willow longbow requires a Ranged level of 20 or higher to wield. Players can purchase this bow from Lowe's Archery Emporium in Varrock.

Members can make a willow longbow using the Fletching skill at level 40. First, a player must cut an unstrung willow longbow from willow logs, which grants 41.5 Fletching experience. Then, the player must string the unstrung willow longbow with a bow string, which grants 41.5 experience.

However, players tend to not string these bows for fletching experience as the cost of the bow strings (190 gp) are significantly higher than the cost of the Willow logs (18 gp). Many players will use high level alchemy or get rid of the unstrung bows in other ways.
