Trying to ID this recurve bow. Pictured is data written on the riser. I'm thinking it's a pretty common vintage bow. Seems I've seen pictures of one on this forum but can't find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

It's a Ben Pearson, but it's not the Paolmino, the Catalog number is wrong. And, due to the length of that number, it is likely one of their Sovereign series. Pearson made a lot of bows over a long time.

Thank you sir. Had a feeling it was a BP.

I did a google search on Ben Pearson and someone had quite a listing of years, catalog numbers and model names. I was doing research on an early 60# pinto. Beautiful bows and heavier poundage than I was expecting. Pretty fair shooter too. Good luck

Could be a Pinto, mine is same length with white glass front and back.

This will take you to Ben Pearson website where you can download PDF versions of their catalogs. When you click on one of the catalogs...there will be a check mark on the right of it...click on that check mark to download catalog.
