Title: Ben Pearson Bows
Post by: mullet on May 14, 2011, 03:46:00 PM
I remember a while back that someone posted a Web site with a lot of history about Ben Pearson Archery. Does anybody know the name of it or can point me in the right direction?

Go to search click on it and then enter Ben Pearson. It will give all kinds of post about him.

archeryarchives.com I miss that site. While not complete it was a great source for identifying different brand bows.

Wish I knew. Might be what Steve was talking about and whoever owns the site just never brought it back.

I just did a little research on the domain archeryarchives.com.  It is owned by a company called Domain Developers Fund based in the Grand Cayman Islands.  They purchase domain names and try to resell them at a profit.  My guess is that the renewal came up for archeryarchives.com and when it wasn't renewed immediately (for whatever reason) Domain Developers snapped it up hoping to resell it for a profit.  

Or not.  Just conjecture on my part.

I remember those sites, but there was another one, like the Fred Bear site. It had the history and all kinds of different Pearson model bows.It might have been archery archives, it's been awhile since I was on it. Thanks a lot, though.

I was doing some research about archery archives on another trad website,and found a comment from the owner of archery archives stating that due to medical bills he could no longer afford to pay for website.He also said he hoped someone would pick it up and keep it going.I think it would be neat if tradgang could do something like that.

That was a great site with tons of great info. Would be nice to see someone bring it back up.
