MOAB brace height
« on: February 18, 2009, 09:35:00 PM »
Being that there have been several MOAB threads of late,I see there are plenty of them floating around on here.

I was curious what some of you other guys are setting your brace height at. I've had good luck at 6 1/4 on my 62", and I run 6 3/8 on my 60".

I've heard of a some guys up around 7" and change.

I know if I get any lower, I  get noise poor arrow flight. Do you see much difference in arrow speed with a higher brace height? What about arm slap?

I should add the one with real bamboo is 6 3/4 and the one with action boo needed a bit higher brace at 7".

I guess I should ask, where you guys measure from? Are you measuring from the bottom (deepest part) of the grip, or from the back edge of the shelf(closest to the shooter)?

I measure from the back of the shelf, so if everyone else is measuring from the grip, then I'm at 6 3/4.

Thanks Terry, I'm right in the ballpark with what everyone else is setting up at.
