Post by: dabeachman on April 27, 2014, 03:14:00 PM

Hello, I have a new hunting bow, a 50# grove spitfire recurve.Does anyone know what the recommended brace height is? Thanks for the help for my new blacktail bow.

I never measured mine, but I had it set so about 1/8" of string groove was showing inside the string.  That is where mine, marked 47@28 and drawn to 27" shoots 27&1/2" 1818s with 145 up front the best.  You may need to be slightly less or more than this depending on you.  Also, mine has the over draw cut in, I shoot it off the shelf.  With an elevated feather rest I can get by with just about anything with it for arrow flight, but I like the arrow to be closer to my hand.
