Title: Bingham recurve brace height
Post by: wislnwings on September 27, 2018, 08:08:25 PM

I've got a 62" 3 peice recurve that I recently aquired.  It appears to have been built using the plans from Binghams( the limb matches my copy of the plans).  Anyone have a suggested starting point for brace height?

Call Binghams and ask. they pretty much know what it should be.

A guess would be 7.5 to 8 inches.

Call Bingham's. They are very willing to give you any info about their products. They designed the bow and would be the folks to talk to.  Roy is probably pretty close but Bingham's knows for sure.
