R/H Martin Hunter one piece recurve; 62″ @ 45#

Posted: 15 February 2026

I’m selling my R/H Martin Hunter one piece recurve; 62″ @ 45# amo, which hasn’t had much use since I bought it as I mainly shoot barebow and deserves to be shot more.

On my 31″ draw length I’ve clocked it at 185fps shooting 85#/640gr wooden arrows and is quiet and smooth.
It’s in very good condition, only a few slight scratches here and there on the limbs. It has a seal skin arrow rest and plate with string silencers,
plus comes with a sturdy Longshot bow bag. The riser is made of zebra wood, shedua, bubinga and zebra wood, beautifully matched wood grain and looks great,
can provide photos.

For anyone interested here’s the manufacturer’s pitch circa 2005:
A classic Damon Howatt design, incorporating a smooth draw and excellent cast, have kept the Hunter popular among serious bowhunters for four decades.
No other bow says Tradition like the Howatt Hunter. The 62” Hunter offers a little extra length, which not only benefits those with a longer draw length
but adds stability and, therefore, accuracy. The Hunter is amongst the fastest recurves you will find, offering impressive speed without sacrificing brace
height. With cores of eastern hard maple, the Hunter’s limbs are designed to store great energy while allowing a smooth, stack-free draw.
As it turns out it is as they say, smooth to draw, no hand shock and hits what you aim at.
