Didn't want to stop Bob from building bows to answer this question, so I will ask it here.
Just bought a set of carbon/foam longbow limbs for my Morrison Cheyenne. I have an A riser and D limbs which make a 60" bow. What would be the proper string length and brace height???
I shot my cheyenne A riser and D carbon/foam longbow limbs at 7 and 3/8th to 7.5 inches.I tried lower.But was happier with it thier overall.
I believe the string was 57 inches long.I shot an 8 strand Astroflight on that bow and really liked that material on that bow with that strand count.
Phil; sorry i should have sent a string with the limbs. will send one if you want. Eric is right on string lenght 57" Bobs web site says brace at 6 3/4-71/4, i shot those at 6 7/8 was good for me. Bob.
At a brace of 7" my string is 57.5" with boo limbs on my A/D Cheyenne.
SBD Bow strings is the string of choice for Bob nowadays. www.SBDbowstrings.com (http://www.sbdbowstrings.com)
57" is right for the 60" bow.
Got it. Thanks everyone for the information.
Phil
