Title: Montgomery Ward Bow
Post by: scott brightman on December 07, 2008, 01:02:00 PM
Hello everyone, I was at my local archery shop
last week and I stumbled on a bow that had markings on it that said Montgomery Ward on it.
It looks to be in good shape for $35.00!!!
Now does anyone out there know WHO or WHAT
Company was contracted to make this bow?
Really just curious

If it is in good shape I would offer him $25.00 and hang it on the wall. Sorry i cant help with any info on the bow.

Could be a Ben Pearson. They made them for a while, a 58 amo standard hunter and a 60 amo special hunter.

Had one that was dead quiet with the right brace height, and if it is mint, snatch it up. See if they will throw in a string and let you shoot it.

I've had two of them and still have one.
Not bad old recurves. They sure resemble a Pearson bow but I'm not positive that Ben Pearson made them.
