I would say early to mid nineties. The wood in my 97 is same as yours but has stripe. Move this to collectors page, sure the guys there could pin point it exactly with serial number.

Kermit

Thanks for your both Feedback on this.
Will check out the collectors page fo further details.
Have a nice Rest of Christmas Time 2014

Marco, I've seen a few of those No Stripes. Here is a pix of mine.
Number is TDHH-132
There is a way to tell by the number when it was made but I can't remember
It's really simple. Just don't take those borderline shots. Tomorrow is another day.

Hi Gun!
Thanks for feedback and the pic with the beautyful risers. The Supreme simply looks awesome! My Supreme,I bought some years ago second hand, is a bit dull. Probably factory satin finish. Limbs and Riser.
Your`s No stripe riser serialnumber is not far away from mine  TDHH-171. Will try to get more information about more exact production date.

Thanks a lot!!

Today I finally received my all Bubinga risers with 2 set of limbs. These were the last 2 combos the South german dealer could provide. When I finally assembled the bows, I became aware of a negative tiller. No matter how I mixed limb and riser combination, the tiller remain negative between - 1 and - 6 millimeter (6mm = quarter inch roughly.
I put my old Kodiak limbs on the new riser and it is perfect +4mm. I put the new limbs on my old Custom Kodiak B Riser and it was again negative. From my point of view the new limbs are incorrect tillered.
Any experiances like this??

PS: I assembled the limbs the correct way. No mix up between upper and lower limb.

PS: And the compass of the A Riser came off, when I put the riser out of the plastic sleeve. One drop of glue I could see at the bottom of he hole and a small piece of white wood that probably was glued in to keep the compass in a defined position in relationship to the surface of the riser.
Not really what I expect from an 500 bucks riser unfortunately. Otherwise nice piece of craftmanship.

Marco, I think your bow is of the late 80's early 90's.

Marco.  Because of the locator holes, it's not possible to mix up the limbs, i.e., put a top on the bottom or vice versa.  If both sets are the same weight and length, is it possible you may have mixed the pairs, i.e a top from one set, a bottom from the other?

A dab of clear acrylic calk works well to reset the compass.  Will hold it in place well, but a little easier to remove if you ever have to.   Good luck.

Kermit

Hi Orion, thanks for your comments! You are completely right, a mix up between Upper and lower limb is not possible. I totally ignored this fact. I got 2 risers, an A and a B riser. And i got 2 pair of limbs, one pair Short limbs that make a 60 Inch bow with the B riser and one pair Long limbs that make also a 60 inch bow with the A riser. Each combination, and i have tried all, Results in a negative tiller. Still waiting for the Email response of the dealer.
Marco

The stuff with the compass is not an serious issue, but not what i have expected from a Brand new riser. Can fix it, in case i should keep the bows. But i don't like negative tiller and can't Imagine to keep it like it is to be honest.

JB

Kermit check the locator hole on bottom limbs. If it's not deep enough it will keep limb from seating all the way down. Causing negative tiller. Just a guess. Jim

My "A" Bubinga riser and 63 pound #3 limbs had a good week chasing pigs last week.

I really like my Bear TD.  The pig didn't care for it so much.   :D  

The years accumulate on old friendships like tree rings, during which time a kind of unspoken care and loyalty accrue between men.
