Can you tell me what your string length is?  And what brace height you've found to be best?

Thanks
Ken

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills.  He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.

For a 3 piece 58" Silvertip, my brace height is 7 1/4", and my string length is 55".

Depends on if it is ff or not. 54" for ff and 53" if non ff. Brace 7.25" to 7.5" is recommended. These are the recommendations by Dave and I have found them to be true on all of my Silver tips.

You need a 54 1/4" if you want to stay with the 7 1/2" brace and a little bit longer if you order a less creeping string than Dyna95.

I find my bows (Schafers) are quietest at around 8" brace. String 54.25"

I shoot mine at 7.75 brace height using a SBD 54" 8 strand string. Quiet as a church mouse.
