Brace height recommendation for a '60's Hoyt Xpert
« on: January 04, 2014, 09:41:00 PM »
Hi gang,

I have a friend with a '60's era Hoyt Xpert.  Does anyone know the recommended brace height range?

Thanks!

Bump just in case someone missed it.  Currently, he's setup around 6.5"' which feels a little low to me.  It's been a while since I've seen him shoot the bow, so I can't comment on the tuning or noise.  He's been practicing and putting the time in the woods also - I think he's hooked!

Hi,

This is my bow. Thanks John for posting. I adjusted the brace height to 7" and it feels pretty good.

Still looking for feedback if anyone has any experience, thanks!

7"-8" was the recommended brace height
from centre of handle (/pivot)
