1951Bob Lee forms Wing Archery Company in Houston, Texas, producing handcrafted, custom traditional bows

1959Through dogged determination -- and the donation of dozens of Red Wing Hunter model bows -- Bob Lee lobbies successfully for an archery-only hunting season

1959Bob assists in forming the Pope & Young Club, an organization dedicated to developing records for quality game taken with a bow and arrow -- the archery counterpart of the Boone & Crockett records club

1963Bob produces the first laminated 3-piece bow -- the Presentation II. The P-II proves an overwhelming and immediate success, and will be regarded for decades to come as one of the finest models the industry has seen

1965The company relocates to Jacksonville, Texas, establishing itself as the largest employer in the city, with shipments exceeding 300 bows per day

1968Bob helps to form the national Archery Manufacturers Organization (AMO), an association that develops industry trade standards for measuring bow weight, draw lengths, etc.

1968Bob sells Wing Archery, the third largest archery manufacturing company in the world, to Head Ski and remains as CEO

1972Bob Lee retires his position with Head Ski (now owned by AMF-Head)

1989Bob and son Rob launch Bob Lee Archery with a newfound committment to the preservation of handcrafted bows -- at a rate of up to 4 bows per day, a stark contrast to the mass production volume of the Wing heyday

2007Bob Lee is inducted into the National Bowhunters Hall of Fame before a standing ovation audience at a dedication ceremony in Las Vegas

2010The company moves into a newly-constructed facility on nine acres in Jacksonville. The lobby serves as a Wing museum where Bobs first bow, produced in 1951, hangs with dozens of Wing models.

2011The company celebrates Bobs 60th anniversary in bow-building with the unveiling of a Limited Edition Anniversary model aptly-named The Legacy featuring Stabi-LockTM - an innovative limb attachment system.

At age 83, Bob still works full-time in the business -- designing and handcrafting bows.

This bow model was specially-designed by Rob and Bob Lee for J.J. to commemorate the birth of Robs first grandchild and Bobs first great-grandchild, Miss Jenna Lee. Presented in October 2010 following Jennas birth to the beaming first-time father, J.J. exclaimed, Im convinced that I own the Greatest Bow on the Planet.

This model is offered (with J.J.s blessing) to the public.

Trad

For the past decade, Ive experienced the great honor of shooting a bow that Bob Lee -- the last of the big three archery pioneers of the 1950s -- built for me, along with his son Rob. I love these bows! Pete Pieper, Traditional Champion and Owner of Precision Barrel Works

I own several Bob Lee bows, and as an archery shop owner, I can attest to the superior craftsmanship, performance, value and, of course, the renowned customer service. Brooks Murphy Owner of The Rusty Spur

At age 67, I shot this bear with my 70# Bob Lee bow. When I arrived on Kodiak Island, the guide said, Youre the

crazy bowhunter who wants to take a brown bear with a stick and a string? Yep, except Im not crazy ... I shoot a Bob Lee.

Lenny Rock IBO World Champion

I know firsthand the world class performance of Bob Lee bows. I took a South Texas hog with my 60# recurve, then five weeks later I used the same bow to

finish 2nd in the IBO World Championship and 1st in the World Bowhunter Challenge with a new record score.

Sean Callanan IBO Traditional World Champion

THE BOB LEE EXCLUSIVE DOUBLE-BOLT ATTACHMENT SYSTEMOur detachable limb assembly for our takedowns has been carefully developed to ensure the most positive alignment

obtainable, with a fit of +/ .002. This unique system increases the stability of the bow which translates to speed and accuracy. This coupling system offers a marked advantage over single-bolt systems on the market. After all, we invented the takedown!

OUR SUPERIOR SIGHT WINDOWOur design boasts a sight window cut as close to true center shot as possible in a wooden bow. The shelf is radiused front to back to reduce contact between arrow and shelf. A 45-degree angle is cut from the shelfs outer edge to further minimize arrow encumbrance. As a final measure, the shelf is lowered to the closest proximity possible to the shooters hand. Extensive handshaping, sanding and finessing is necessary to create these exclusive elements all critical for optimal arrow clearance and flight.

EXTRA LIMBS or HANDLESIf you order an extra set of limbs at a future date, your handle must be shipped to us for proper fitting; to save shipping costs and time without your bow, we offer a 10% DISCOUNT off the regular price for extra limbs ordered at the same time as your bow purchase. See order form for pricing.Extra handles can also be ordered for your takedown at 60% of the regular price for the full bow of any given model. If ordered in conjunction with a full bow, a 10% DISCOUNT will be applied to the regular price of a handle.

CHOOSING the GRIPWe offer three grips: low, medium and high. The low grip is considered longbow style for those who prefer shooting with the entire palm contacting the grip. Our medium grip is by far our most popular grip, receiving many compliments from customers who appreciate the way the grip falls into the hand for an exceedingly natural fit. Our high grip is an exaggerated medium grip for Olympic-style target shooting.

HOW to ORDERA 50% deposit begins the process of building your custom bow. The construction phases -- roughcutting, gluing, and fine-shaping -- require approximately four to five weeks to complete. The finishing phases -- handsanding, silkscreening and spraycoating -- require an additional week. These timelines vary depending upon season.
