I have a Dakota Classic and I am wondering what the brace height should be...  As I have been shooting it its at 6 7/8 which seems to be too short.  Where should it be?
			
			
			
				Did I post this question in the wrong forum or something?
			
			
			
				How is it shooting? Try running it up to 7 1/2 or so and then back down (you won't hurt the bow). Let the bow tell you what it likes..
Anybody out there got a Dakota classic that can help out here?
			
			
			
				Give the bowyer (Rick Welch) a call at 501-821-3791.  I'm sure he'll help you get it set up correctly.
			
			
			
				Thanks guys.  Rick answered my email today.  I only have it a little over an inch and a half off.  LOL  
I am still green as grass, so... what difference should I see when I correct the situation?
			
			
			
				take your arm guard off and shoot it a couple of times at the brace heigth you had it at and then move it to the correct brace, I'm sure you'll notice a difference:) Probably will be quieter too and less finicky/AKA more forgiving.
			
			
			
				I am sure I would have noticed a difference if it weren't for the bruising and nerve damage.   ;)    
The good news is that I am a good bit more consistant since giving the string a twist or two.  I still haven't worked up enough courage to shoot without the arm guard.  I shot about 10 arrows without it right after I got the bow.  Now, I am a slow thinking Mississippi boy but I caught on to that in a matter of minutes.
