Title: brace height for a howatt high speed ?
Post by: kbertsch on October 20, 2013, 12:29:00 AM
just picked up an old howatt high speed 58" just wondering what the brace height should be. if you give a height  say whether it is to the deepest part of the throat or to the closest part on the shelf.

I'd try 8" to the throat of the grip.

Kasper,
I just asked this same question for one I just got this week somewhere else and got several answers...Anywhere from 71/2" to 8" and mine seems good at about 73/4"...Measureing from the deepest part of the grip that is...
