Brace Height for A&H ACS CX
« on: December 21, 2010, 03:53:00 PM »
I have a 62" 50@28" with a 14" riser, can someone advise the recommended brace height?  I couldn't find it on the website.

The manual says 6-3/4" to 7-1/4" which seems in line with other high performance longbows. How do you like yours by-the-by? I'm pretty interested in one.

For a while I was shooting mine at 6 3/8 and it was working out great. I recently started shooting them at 7". 7" seems to make it more forgiving and more quiet.
Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying,

Brace height is a very personal and subjective thing.  The best way to determine what's right for each of us is to experiment by shooting a few arrows at increasing/decreasing BH's.  With our ACS bows we generally find happiness around 7" but some like it a bit higher and some like it a bit lower.  

There is no right or wrong answer.  "Use the Force Luke"

All my 64"ers are at 7 1/4
