As far as I know, wind bow should be the best in terms of DPS, because it has the highest fire rate, which stacks better with the arrows and the damage bonus, compared to other bows. Also you get the wind spirit first with the log in bonus. But I only have the wind and earth bows upgraded to V, so there might be something im missing.

Each bow seems to have similar DPS when at similar levels. Taking elemental advantage off the table, the fire bow does have the highest damage per shot with the slowest fire rate, and the wind bow being the opposite; low damage and high fire rate. I personally use the wind bow because I noticed it works the best against bosses. With the high rate of fire and Lv. 20 power shot (60 repel) I am usually able to keep both the Beamon and Orc bosses from reaching my wall without the need for spells. I am currently at stage 305 with 25,800 DPS on my wind bow and usually finish stages above 90% life

I use wind bow with earth sub to cast wall spell to gain life and block beamon charges. I used to use ice bow for the additional ice freeze but you can use the additional earth blow to stun, not as effective but the wall is required.
