I've owned a few.  Pretty sure it's cut to center, not past.  Easiy enough to determine.  String the bow and stand behind it and center the string on the belly side of the limbs, then look at the arrow shelf/side plate area.  if the string is "touching", it's cut to center.  If you see daylight between the string and the riser, it's cut past center.

Thanks, Bob.  My memory isn't what it used to be.  Maybe I'll have to pick up another Shawnee so I can just check it in hand rather than rely on my memory. Good hunting.
