David,I like mine around 8" but you can go from 7 1/2 to 8 1/2.I really like how the bow shoots but for sure with some Rose Oak limbs the overall performances will go to the next level.

Felix is correct -- start at 8" and see how it shoots. I have 3 Bear TD bows right now and all are set at 8.5"

I have Rose Oak #3 limbs (53# at 29") on my wood A riser and it shoots great -- smooth and VERY fast.

You have a dream bow there. Enjoy it.

Joe

Hello Again, one more question for the Miller Calculator, do you have an idea about the window value to enter for this bow ?

Thanks

david

David , for me , I don't use the calculator. If your draw is 28" and the 50# , a .400 arrow will work with a heavy head or .500 with lighter head. My son shoots 49#  ( same bow) and uses Heritage 150's or Beman .500's.

I shoot Beman MFX 600s with 100 grain broadhead and 75 grain brass insert out of A Risers with #3 limbs. I shoot 500 MFX with 125 grain broadhead and 100 grain brass insert.

ok thanks gentlemen, so what do you think about a 35/55 Gold tip traditionnal with standard aloy insert and a 200 grs Fields point ? it's look like it's the combinaison flying great bare shaft but it's quite surprising (for me   :confused:  )
