Great find at a great price.

Sure I can. But I had a need for the 35# bow. As many of you know I really like them.birch dowels I shoot and have several which spined 35-40. The 40# Darton, Chezney quickly claimed as I have another just like it and it a joy to shoot. The 50# Shakespeare didnt rally need it. So a need (want) for 2 of the 3 was somewhat justified.

I’d say they’ll be well worth the $72

Got these 3 bows a while back and some strings. Ben person 709, from my research was made only 2 years in 65-66. Or 66-67, then later became the 7090. She had some pretty good twist when I put a old string on her. Here she is now with a new string, wool silencers and a bear weather rest. I was at Scheels today and seen the rests for $3.99. I know the old flat shelf recurves seem to shoot better for me off an elevated rest like this anyways. I have another rest and 2 more strings for the other 2, but haven't messed with them much yet.
