I recently got a recurve bow, it is a IA Hunter number282? 52" 50lb at 28". It has green glass back and belly and a one piece wooden riser. I can't find any info on this bow. The guy who gave it to me sid he bought it new in 1975. If anybody has some info about this bow I would really like to know about it. Thanks.
