Default RE: Check This bow out !

It does sound too good to be true, but things like that do happen with trad bows--I've got friends that have picked up vintage bows in practically new condition for next to nothing--wonder why that never happens to me???? I did get lucky several years ago with a couple of hand signed and numbered Glen St. Charles back quivers--#77 and #79 of 100 or less. Didn't get them all that cheap, but I thought they were a great find anyway.

I can't remember if I've owned a Pearson Hunter or not (had several different ones), but the Pearson's I've owned were good bows. I'm not sure why they aren't more collectable--possibly because there were so many of them produced. On the video "The Legendary Hunts of Ben Pearson" video, they give a little bit about the history of Ben Pearson Archery--at one time, they bought feathers (to make arrows) by the boxcar load! I can't imagine fletching that many arrows......shew!

I'd like to see some pictures of the bow myself--any idea what number it is?
