You might be better off looking into Wing Archery history. I don't know if there is a specifc dating code for Wings but by tracing the company history you can probably get a good ballpark as Wing was bought and sold a few times so the "AMF era"  probably isn't too long.

I'll see if I can find something.

AMF era was 1969 to 1974. Could be anytime in that period. There's a good Wing history article in the Dec/Jan issue of Trditional Bowhunter Magazine.

Thanks Anthony,

I dug around but couldn't come up with what I thought would be a simple search.

Thank you both for the info, so my bow is from 1969 to 1974! Excellent!   :)  

If anyone has an issue of TBM Dec/Jan, I'm in!

I'll have to organize a trad wild boar hunt to use it!

Regards,
