Just picked up a new to me all osage critter gitter special.  I think I am in love.  Anyway, bow is marked 58 inches in length but the string that came with it looked pretty short.  I took it off and measured it from tip of loop to tip of loop when stretched out.  It measured 53.5 inches!  I would have thought it should be at least 55.  Gonna order a new string anyway since this one is a little worn.  Anyone have a 58 inch Critter Gitter and what is your string length.  I think the recommended brace is 6 3/4 inches.  Thanks!

55" would probably be the ticket.All the GN longbows I have had took a string 3 inches below bow length.I have had 2 Critter Gitters.I think 6 and 3/4 sounds close to perfect on the brace give or take a little bit.

Thanks Steelhead!  I can't wait to get a string and shoot this beautiful bow.  I love the lines on this bow and one look at the taper limbs and you know a master craftsman made it.  Thanks!

Yaa,the precisely tapered lamitations,slender deep cored limbs and trappezoid cross section make for a very refined looking bow and fine shooter.The Critter Gitters are no longer being made so you have a nice piece of archery history thier.

I would order it 55" 53.5 sounds very short to me.

Thanks All!  I ordered a 55" string from Josh at OliverStacy.  Can't wait to get it!
