Title: Early birthday present.
Post by: tomsm44 on May 09, 2017, 08:30:00 PM
I got an early birthday present this week.  A mid 1960s Ben Pearson 709 Hunter, 58", 47@28".  Here's a link to the thread on the collectors page with more details about the cleanup I did on it in case anybody's interested.  The link also has lots of pictures.

Great looking bow. I love any bow with zebra wood.

Thanks guys.  I've refinished a couple bows before, but this was my first painted mystery bow.  Taking the paint was like opening a present.
