I'm pretty sure that's a "Bear" bow by the looks of the little inset and model# starting with "B" . They make a little "bow stringer" which consists of nothing more than a bow string with leather cups on the ends that attach to each end and you put your foot in center and just pull straight up on bow with hand grip and slide the loose end of string out until it slips in it's groove on end and then let back down on bow. Nothing to it and no chance of twisting and breaking laminate. I , too, grew up on "Bear " recurve bows from Chippewa Archery in Mt. Pleasant , MI...south of Grayling where they were made. I have been told , take it for what it's worth, as old as these bows are, it's not a good idea to string one up and actually use it as the laminate could , and has, let go just from age. Could get ugly. I have two nice ones also , one was my first bow when I started hunting back in 1966. I would love to string them up and shoot but I won't chance it. Check with a reputable sport shop for length of string. String technology could have changed since they were built.
