This is a Hoyt Axis. It has a heavy 25” riser. Makes a 68” 50# bow. I thinks it’s from the ‘90’s

I have..a friend of mine has a clue. They shoot well. I like the way the riser balances.

I had his father, the Hoyt Aerotec - in 23" The best Hoyt riser on the market imo. I would have kept it if it was passing the 12cm ring for barebow. But it didn't. Enjoy it!

Great risers, they use a bushing and thumbscrew setup like some of Earl's older risers like the TD-3 and others, also similar in principle to the DAS connections.

the Axis and the Aerotec were very popular here in the UK 20(ish) years ago, But like Draven said I believe their popularity waned somewhat when the 12cm rule was enforced.

Yes, I've had two, sold one. Hoyt's first TEC or braced riser and the heaviest. It had a modified "ILF" system where the dovetail was replaced by a bushing. A very big and heavy riser and STIFF riser.
Generally not for a beginner, but in the right hands, a great shooter. The later Aerotec (my favorite, and all I shoot these days) was a a little thinner and lighter and the final entry, the Helix was thinner and lighter yet and sported a builtin vibration dampener. (TEC risers had a high-freq vibration, typically reported by those who didn't know how to "grip" it.)

What was the purpose of placing the rest at front edge of the riser?

Thats a clicker base.

I think that is a clicker plate. or it's a MIS-placed Hoyt right-hand Super Rest. Hard for me to make it out for sure. But that is not an Earl Hoyt idea of a properly placed rest.

Thats also the place for the clicker base. That Hoyt rest is in the wrong place in the first pictures.

The Hoyt rest is stuck on the clicker plate. Either the guy didn't know what he was doing, or he needed to weaken the dynamic spine of his arrows and ran out of other options.

Ok. I never saw a setup like that before. Figure it should have some kind of plunger rest

Is the metal arc for strength/stability?

The TEC bridge made the riser very stiff with adding as little weight as possible.
