I recently purchased these bows at a yard sale for 5 bucks  the one is a '64? Ben Pearson Pony the other I need help with. It is approximately a 62"bow it is ambidextrous with an aluminum handle section, the limbs are laminated wood with red glass, they are held to the riser with 3 allen head screws each. they can be seen in one of the pics.the bow was covered in black paint so I removed enough to look in the familiar places for any Identification and found none. the grip is or was wrapped leather and a wood core of some kind is visable through the grip there is what appears to be a brass rod of some kind running through the handle creating a shelf for the arrow to ride on. Thats the best that I can think to describe it right now. i hope that someone recognizes this bow and can give me a little history on it . speaking of history there is a pic of a recurve with the name Gladiator ,Conquest as well .I would appreciate any shared knowledge on that bow as well    :dunno:      :dunno:
