Title: Big East takedown recurve brace height
Post by: RAU on August 08, 2014, 06:38:00 PM
A buddy of mine has a Big east takedown recurve that he doesn't know the recomended brace height for. Big east were made here in North East pa a few years ago but seem to have gone under. I'm almost certain the maker was Mike Fedora's son. Mike Fedora of Fedoras traditional archery that is. Anyone know recomended brace height?
Thanks in advance,
Don

Start at 7.5" and go from there.

They are copies of his dad's bows.  Start with 6 1/2" from the rear of the window.  For some reason that is how Mike Fedora measures brace on his bows.

Big East are nice bows, made by a despicable human being.
