Hi guys. I have an old 50# Bear brand wooden recurve, given by an Uncle. Dad and I grabbed it and strained mightily, but could not string it. We got it bent half as much as we needed to to get the bowstring on, but no dice. The string length is printed in black ink on the blonde wood, under "varnish," so that's correct. I know it must be possible to string it, but in the few decades we've had it, it's never been done.
Frustrated and feeling like one of Penelope's suitors.
Help!

"The guy was all over the road. I had to swerve a number of times before I hit him."
