Title: AMO?
Post by: Bakes168 on June 04, 2008, 04:01:00 PM
What does AMO mean? And is the length on a bow always the length of the unstrung bow?
Thanks
Bakes

A bow length that is built to AMO standards would be the length of the string when twisted to give the correct brace height plus 3".If you have a 57" string on your bow your bow is 60"AMO. Makes things very easy when buying a new string.
