Title: Brace height on McCullough 59'er
Post by: SactoBowman on February 22, 2012, 06:01:00 PM
I just got a new to me 59'er and wondered what would be the recommended brace height range.

Also the bow is 56# @ 28 and I draw 26 inches and wondered if anyone had carbon recommendations.

Thanks!

is this a 60" Bow? If so I would start at about 7 1/4" to 7 3/4"

Rob,

Yes it is a 60" bow.  This one is an amazing looking bow!  Trying to tweak it and find the right arrows for her.

Thanks for the tip on brace height.

Arrow wise at your draw length, I would look into .600 Carbons and trim them back about 1/2" at a time untill you get them flying good.

To use Syu's calc, would you use generic recurve?  What figure would you use for center cut?

Thanks.
