What's the sweet spot on your brace height?

What AMO are you shooting?

Thanks.

Interesting.  I shot 7-3/4" on the 60" bow (same riser - different limbs).  I set it for 8" to start....then went to 7-3/4".....shot my 3d shoot, today.

Pitiful

So I get home and start playing with it....and decided to go to 7-1/4 and go up 2 twists at a time.

It loves 7-3/8 (I measure mine to back of string....sue me...lol).

I got out the owner's pamphlet....and Dave actually recommends 7-1/4"-7-1/2" for FF bows.  But I see a LOT of guys utilizing a lot higher than that (including me on the 60"/50#er).

I shoot my 60" FF with 7 3/8 brace height.  Seems to work great for me.  I just followed Dave's pamphlet.  Rick

62 inch AMO, 7 3/4" is good for me.

64" - 7 3/4" seems to be the quiet spot.
