IA Hunter recurve bow

[Brently]

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.

The Pathfinder is a solid Zebrawood riser bow.
