Mine is at 7" (from the belly of the bow).  Nock point is 3/8" higher than horizontal.  That's a bit higher than Vince recommends iirc...

Good luck.

James, I would contact Vince at [email protected] he has alsway been willing to help me with my mohawk. I have an older Mohawk and it likes being at 6-1/2". Once you get it tuned you will love it!

Excellent, My new Mohawk just arrived today!  Boo limbs, 64 inches and 40 @ 28, I have a 30 inch draw.  Can't wait to see how she will handle some 500 grain hunting arrows!  I will start at 7 inch brace height.
