Title: Little Bear brace height?
Post by: F1Rocket on May 12, 2009, 04:02:00 PM

I have a 48" 20#@24 Bear "Little Bear"

I am trying to find out what is the recommended brace height. Thanks.

F1, I have looked on my Bear catalog CD and have found the "Little Bear" several places but can't find any brace height suggestions either there or at fredbear-online.com   I would hate to lead you astray so others will be along with suggestions. If I had to venture a guess I would say between 7 to 8 inches BUT please wait for others with more knowledge than I. John

Thanks Doc for rescuing me on this one. I knew someone who knew way more than me would chime in. Hope that helps F1. John

I just measured the one I have for my grankids and it was 7 3/8".  It shoots great with 1/4"x24" cedar shafts.
