Is the sight window on the CM Falcon cut to center or past?

String the bow and hang it on a peg so you can view it from the belly side.  Visually center the string on the limbs.  Then move your gaze up and down on the string in the arrow rest area.  If you can see light between the string and the strike plate, it's cut past center.  If the string just "touches" the side plate, it's cut to center.  If it blots out the side plate, it's cut left of center, for a right handed bow.

I talked with Chad from Recurves.com a while back and he said that the Falcon is cut past center.  I can't recall the exact measurement, but it was a hair past center.
The Falcon is a great bow!

Normally they are cut 1/4" to 5/16" past center.

Thanx!
No wonder some of the recommended spines are flying weak for me.
