I have a Herway Carnivore recurve that is 60" and 47lb@28". The bow shoots pretty good with the current setup I'm using but seems a little loud when shot, I have bush hush on the string and use wool silencers on the string. I hear many people talking about brace height in the 7-8" range, this bow has a brace height of 6 1/4". I'm not an expert when it comes to this kind of thing and was wondering if this seems kind of short and if this would make the bow shoot louder. I'm drawing 27", shooting off the shelf, Beman MFX 500 arrows that are 29", 50gr insert, 150 gr head, 5" feathers, split finger.
