I just picked up a 69", 34# White Wing in good condition from an online auction.  Serial number is W7-1039 and it has a simple black stenciled "Wing Archery Company" with no reference to either Head Ski or AMF.  It does not have the beautiful rosewood riser I remember from the mid-sixties; almost looks like maple or a subdued version of "Wingwood".  Hard to tell as the bow has clearly been refinished.

Anyone know what year (or range of years) this bow may have been made?

I have a 1964 brochure that has them for 79.95 and a later early 70's brochure that has them for 89.95. Recommended brace height in the brochures is 9 1/2 to 10 1/2.

The brochure calls the riser wood Sandal Lockwood with white glass and it calls for a 8 1/2 to 9 1/2 brace height. Not 100% sure the  brochure is from the early 70's it may be earlier. The 1963 catalog says it is Hawaian Boa wood and has white glass and calls for the 9 1/2 to 10 1/2 brace height. That is what I can offer up as I have a 63 catalog and a 19?? brochure that came with my Thunderbird. Maybe someone out there knows what years they had the Lockwood risers.My thunderbird has the black Lockwood riser and it resembles actionwood or futurewood.

Here's a picture if that helps.

No Wing experts out there familiar with the White Wing?  Trying to date it so I can then figure out what the recomended brace height was.  At 69" long I'm guessing it was something closer to 10" than 9"; but you never know.

Thanks

Teriffic target bow!
Enjoy!

I recently p/u a 45# bow - brace height > 10" shooting gpp from 9-13 resulted in a lot of string slap on my hand - have it at 9.5" & it's smooth & sweet - very nice bow
