Hey y'all,

I've been playing around with the brace height and nocking point on my 66" toelke whip. 40#@30"(my draw). I'm shooting full length Trad Only 600s with 250 grn tips and 4" parabolic feathers.

Any recommendations? What do you have your whips at?

Thanks

I just bought a 66" Whip and have been tinkering with it. I've settled at 7 3/8" brace and 9/16" nock height.  I'm shooting split finger, using two nock points, and pulling 45.5" at 29"


I can shoot 500s or 400s out of it depnding on the overall combo. I've been shooting Whips a while now if you need any other suggestions. I'm certainly no expert, though

I go a little less on the brace than TxAG and use 7-7.25.
I nock above my nockset and use 1/4 above level.
I haven't found these Whips to be very finicky at all.

Thanks guys,

So far my tinkering has shown the bow to be pretty forgiving with brace height differences.

I forgot to mention I shoot split finger and nock below a tie-on nocking point.

I am trying to get everything dialed in to hopefully hunt pigs with this bow in a month or so.

Lefty is right. All the Whips I've owned wern't too fickle.  On my shorter ones I'm at 7 1/4" brace and 1/2" nock

Farmer, how about some pics???  

I'll post some pics once my girlfriend gets back from visiting family with the camera...

Right now I'm at 7.5" for brace height and 1/2" for nocking point.

How's itshooting with those measurements?

It's shooting pretty good right now. I just shot a couple rounds with bareshafts this morning at 20 yds. Bareshafts were flying right in there with the fletched arrows.

Main thing I need to work on is refining my form a little more. I can tell on the misses that it's a breakdown in form more than equipment. I have been trying to incorporate more of a continuos back tension through the shot and it is working wonders but I am still trying to get it ingrained into my muscle memory.

If anything I might raise the brace height very slightly, but it is already pretty damned quiet! I need to get everything dialed in for hopefully hunting pigs this summer.

Sounds good. I found lowering the brace height to help with noise. I definitely know what you mean about back tension and shooting form
