I would start at 7.5" and tune up from there.

7-8'inches is Bears recommendation. I like mine at 7 1/4 although I always seem to prefer a shorter brace.

i have mine at 7 3/4, you will need to experiment to find what works best with your style and arrows.

I used to run 73/4 but I found 8" quieter with less "stuff" on my string.  I did it on my Mag riser as well.

I'd say start at 8" also.

The many bear TD bows that I have owned have all been at their best between 8.25" and 8.5" -- they have all been quietest there too.
