Title: Another Tamerlane Question
Post by: Echo62 on January 04, 2018, 02:09:00 PM

Does anyone know if the Tamerlane (I have a 68 HC 300) riser is cut centershot or past center?

When the Tamerlane was introduced in 1965 the sight window was cut 1/8" beyond center. it was a center shot bow or either side of center with arrow plate adjustment. I don't think this was ever changed in later years.

Steve, thanks for your info. I am thinking about trying a hoyt super rest on mine, so I was wondering how much room I had to play with.

Hoyt made a self adhesive pad that could be put behind the super rest to bring it out a little. If you pm your address I have some of those nos that I could send you.

The Tamerlane was introduced in 1963. Bought one new in January 1963 - first year of production, though they were being advertised in late 1962 prior to production.
