what is the brace height on that?

probably huge for a longbow
Silence over speed.  Heavier arrows never hurt.

here is a pick from a little while ago my brother(bubba scott) came over and he brought his banshee and we shot a while  i shot these from about 15Yards out and she is a flat shooting bow ,we were playing around and shooting 35 yards just to see if there was alot of arc in the arrow flight and there wasnt

John, thanks for the tip. I've been shooting mine braced at 7 1/2 and was worried about going much higher. Let you know in a while.
