I just picked one up for $75, I paid $200 for one a while back but it was like new with extras and bow prices were higher then.

I shot my first deer with one back in 73. 58" and 58# man I would like to have that bow back again .The riser fit like a glove but it was`quite heavy.They wewe good shooting bows would be tough today to get replacement limbs.

[falcon70]

what length are the bows? I owned one too in the mid seventies. They shoty well. I thought the vintage wing limbs would fit it

[trentcur]

yep 58"

I shot a Lewis Carrol in College on the Archery Team. Heavy, yes but very stable and accurate. At the time I thought it was gaudy looking but it sure out shot the Bearcat I was also useing!

I was gonna jump in here and mention I am fairly certin those limbs will also fit any of the early Wing P2 take downs.Bob made most of the limbs for the Carrols take downs.They had to be a little different so Bob did not add the micarta piece on the mounting section of the limbs like the p2 had.They used the spacers instead but I am fairly certin they will fit Wing p2's using the same spacers you have on your Carrols.And if you could find an early two tone micarta and brazilian rosewood wing p2 handle (I like the short one best makes a 58" model) I do not think you could ever find a better shooting bow very good shooters and a real good looker.A couple of good bows you got there bd
