a friend just gave me a left handed pearson golden sovereign recurve labeled as: golden monarch 5'2" 60# at 26" and i was wondering if anybody could give me some info on this bow? i think they were target bows but this one is a 60 pounder!?? it is in really nice condition and has a classy wood pattern to it.
should i try to sell it? how much? keep it as a collectable? i'm a righty so i can't keep it as a shooter unless i turn it upside down!
thanks. :dunno:
I've got a 1968 Sovereign catalog and the Monarch isn't in it, so I can't help.
thanks anyway
pics?
Classifieds for us lefties??? ;)
well bud, i'll tell you what; if i can figure out how to post pics i'll put them up over the weekend. besides that, does 60# at 26" even appeal to you?
I have a 64# longbow that spits an arrow and kicks like a toothpick mule if you hold it wrong... :)
Even though lefties are in their right minds, we're occasionally weird.
Seriously though, it sounds interesting to me. I just picked up a Ben Pearson bow from Ray Hammond that is surprisingly fast for a 40# bow shooting 500 plus grain woodies. Pearsons had some nice shedua back in the day.
i'll work on those pics asap!

Bud, you have no idea how true that statement is! I am left handed but, shoot, punch and most everything right handed. :rolleyes:
Golf and ball bat righty. All other things lefty.
