Default Wing Bow?

I have a bow someone wants me to sell for them. It is a Wing Presentation Hunter. It seems to be in fairly decent shape. A banged up from years of use, but in good working order and looks pretty good as well.

Are these worth anything? I was thinking of selling it for like 50 bucks or something. However the guy is really nice, I don't want to rip him off. I wanted to make sure it wasn't some sort of collectors item first. If it is I will try to sell on E-bay instead for more money.

I told him I thought the sight was worth more than the bow was . I think I am going to buy the sight from him and sell the bow with a cheaper old style pin site. It already has one on it behind the scope sight. Don't ask me why, I didn't do it.

Here are some pics of it in the following threads.

What do the little arms do that the harness is attached to? The seem to have some sort of ajdustment screws, but I don't know what they effect for sure.

Thanks guys.

don't know what some one might pay for it, looks in good shape, but not rare. the arms are for timing the wheels, the screws at the base of arms will change their pos. thus move the wheels.

Good shooting bow
55% let off not worth much though should be able to get 75 to 100 for the complete package.

Thanks guys, it has a target stabilizer as well I just didn't put it one there for the pics. I think I am going to take the sight off and try to sell the bow for around $50 and see what happens.

That old wing is from about 1978 or so. Looks to be in decent shape for an oldie. It looks like it has two sights on it. The target sight is an old Check-It. The slotted one looks like an old cobra pin sight that is just being used for a spacer. The problem with old bows is that they are worth something as collector items, if you can find the collector. Wish I had kept my old Jennings Arrowstar from 1977.
