Title: widow brace height?
Post by: Boone the Hunter on April 02, 2009, 06:26:00 PM
I just bought a 1993 64'' 52@32 one piece widow recurve, wondering what the correct brace height would be, thanks

Hey Dan, it should be 8-1/4" - 9". All my PMA's, PSA's and TF's shoot best at 8-5/8".  Not to change the subject but, I know you shot a Whisper stik and, I have a 60" Mojo on order. What do you set your brace on your Mojo? Good luck and thanks, Glen

Yep...8 1/2" or 8 5/8" should work fine.

Drop a e-mail to the widow boys with the ser# and they will let you know any thing you need to know about that bow.

Mine do best at 8 5/8 to 8 3/4

8 5/8"s has worked just fine on every BW I've had or shot.

hey Glen, I set my brace height on my mojo at 7 1/2'' and it's pretty
quiet, i have tried it closer to 7 and it starts to get a little loud, I think JD recommends 7 1/2-8 but I can't remember for sure. Thanks guys for the input, sounds like 8 5/8 is about were i need to be, i can't wait to get her set up and start shooting.
