Ben Pearson Stallion
« on: September 14, 2013, 06:57:00 PM »
My friend has a Ben Pearson Stallion.  The number on the riser is 10-1321.  Does anyone know what year this bow was made? Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

The 10 in the SN means it's a Model 710.  I don't know what the other numbers mean.  I believe the Model 710 was made from 1964-1966.  In 1963 all Pearson models were 9XX. In the 1967 catalog, there is no Stallion listed.

It's not that common of a bow ( that's a relative statement, after all it is a Pearson bow) I think it looks a little like the Kodiaks of that era.

It is a mid 60's bow and not a rare bow by any means. They are good shooting bows and under rated. Good bow good shooting bow. Sold new in the day for around 59.00.

Never saw a Pearson bow that wasn't under rated.  Bear and Wing had the name, but Pearson made some great shooters.
