Title: What A Stallion!!
Post by: Wannabe1 on June 11, 2013, 07:52:00 PM
Lately I've been shooting my longbow a lot as it will be my hunting bow this year. But, today for a change I thought I'd shoot my '63 Ben Pearson Stallion just so he didn't feel neglected. Normally I shoot some warm up shots before my accuracy is where I like it. This was my 3 warm up shots and I called it quits!    :biglaugh:   Love this bow!!    :D

He's got just a hint of vibration w/a 7 1/2" brace. I've got a 4 arrow strap on Kanati quiver coming that I got in a trade to put on and I think that will quieten it way down!

Thanks for the comments!     :thumbsup:

nice grouping hard to beat that

We all need to learn when to quit. There is always that urge to say "Now, let's see if I can slip a 4th one right into the middle of that group".

And that's where I can usually count on slinging one WAY out of the group.

Nice shooting!

Wannabe1: What are the specs? Just curious.

Nice bow. I have a '71 Ben Pearson Equalizer.

Thanks for posting.

Post by: Wannabe1 on June 12, 2013, 04:53:00 PM
Wayne, the bow is 62" and 45XX @ 28". I was told with the XX it is probably 47#'s. Post a pic of your Equalizer if you can. Never seen one of those.   :thumbsup:

Wannabe1: It's 48" and 50#@28 draw. High brace height when strung. It's my blind bow for turkeys.

Not a great pic... but the only one available right now.

Wow, that's a good looking bow! Thanks for posting it. Definitely a blind bow at that length.

Have always liked the look of those Pearson tri-color risers! Great equalizer too.
