I went to a garage sale and found a Ben Pearson take down recurve. It is the one with the aluminum knunkles and pin. The bow is rated at 46 pounds at 28 inches. The bow has a crack in the fiberglass in the middle of the belly on the lower limb. It does not come out to the edge. Otherwise the bow is in good condition. I haven't strung the bow or shot it yet, but I don't think that the crack is a problem. What do you think? Oh, I paid $20 for the bow.
