Keith, is this the riser with the "snap in" limb sockets? Just curious.<P>Overall bow length is the key to a startup brace height. AMO length is the measured running length (follow the limb curves!) from nock to nock.<P>Some decent starting points.<BR>66" - 8" to 8-3/4"<BR>68" - 8-1/4" to 9-1/4"<BR>70" - 8-1/2" to 9-1/2"<P>My 66" Medalist is happiest at 8-7/8" to 9" with 10s of DF'97, so it pays to experiment a bit.<P>Unless you have an old string, it's really best to make up a tillering string outta some low stretch cord (Dacron), or a coupla old bowstrings tied together for the extra length, and keep adjusting 'til you get a BH you like, then take a measurement from nock to nock. <P>Use bowyer's knots at both limb nocks. Our Resource library shows how to tie one if you need.<P>Hope this helps.<BR><P>------------------<BR><B><I>Rob DiStefano</I></B><P><BR> |
