My wife has a wing swift,recurve it is 66" The serial number is S-1662. Can anybody tell me the age of this bow.     Thanks Don

Not sure if you need a poll, maybe you should just post on the collectors/history section.  

Me telling you I can identify the age, still doesnt identify the age.

Good luck, sounds nice.

Wing is tough.  Even Bob Lee or his son Rob can't tell you when a bow was made.  Who knew at the time it would matter?

I have the original sales receipt for my Wing Presentation II so I can narrow it down.  But my Red Wing Hunters I can only guess based on decals and tip styles.  

The Swift is a better bow but less well known.

Thanks for the info so far. I never thought about putting it on the collectors section. Also I don't know why the poll keeps popping up. Thanks Don
