7.5 to 8.5 inches

 

No Shot Bro.,False intel right here

 

I run my recurve one at 8” and both of the longbow ones that I have are at 7 3/4” and 8”

 

Junxing (the company that makes these bows) recommends 7.5-8" brace for the f171 (recurve), and the f172 (longbow). That is just a starting point.

There are too many variables to say that one brace height will be the right one for each archer, each bow, each arrow, or each combination of the lot. If you are really new to this I would just shoot a bunch of arrows, and pay attention to your brace height. If you notice that it's shooting more loud, or with more vibration than you like try adding a little brace height to see how it changes. When you find the happy spot it will be quieter, and more efficient.

 

I didn’t know that was the actual manufacturer, thanks for that. I’ll adjust it, right now it’s about 7 1/4 so definitely too low.

 

So Im gonna revive this because I just got a black hunter and in order to get to 7.75 from string to deepest part on handle inside I have to put crazy twist in the string (shortening it to 56"!) and of course it sounds like crap when shot. Do they measure their brace height some other way?

 

They supply a string that is too long.

For sure replace their stock string with a better one. My Black Hunter longbow shot best with a brace of 8 inches.

 

Do they measure from the inside/belly of deepest cut part of grip?

 

So the string included with my black hunter recurve (ordered direct from mandarin duck) is exact 56", loop to loop. Bow length is 60". So it should be fine. But in order to get to 7.75"-8.25 the string is overtwisted, no longer a smooth cylinder, if you know what I mean.
Anyone else have a similar issue with this bow? I'd just assume the string is too long but -4 inches less than bow length should be normal. Do they measure brace differently?

 

What brace height should I have my 60 lb 60 in hybrid longbow black hunter set to I have a Flemish twist string made for that exact bow it said 6 50 but everybody else is saying 7 8

 

I run my Black Hunters (55lb, 60lb longbows) at 7.5" brace. They really like it.

 

The limbs of my 60pound recurve Black Hunter look Drawn Past its natural stringed sitting point., 6.5 to 6.3/4 is factory and seems correct., 6.5 has arrows shooting strait with my proper knocking point

 

6 3/4" is longbow territory. I'll bet that your bow is quite loud at that brace. Just for giggles, twist it up to 8" and listen for a difference. You are measuring to the deepest part of the grip, aren't you? 6 1/2 to 6 3/4 sounds about right for measuring to the shelf.
