Title: Acadian woods tree stick
Post by: Geoff Anderson on January 18, 2018, 09:16:00 PM
G'day gang, I recently purchased a tree stick 66",#60@30"
As I purchased the bow Pre loved I am after some advice on the recommended brace height range.

Thanks in advance guys

Geoff

Not a lot of those around.  Why not just sendTim Mullins an email.

That's a very fine bow you picked up, congratulations.   My dad has shot one since 2010 exclusively.  However, he's a lefty, so I have not shot it myself.  He likes to keep his at 7 3/8".  I would expect to find something that works for you a 1/4" either side of that.  As Orion mentioned, you don't often see them, so you're quite fortunate.  

Best regards, Chase

Mine works best somewhere between 7 1/4 and 7 1/2.

Thank you for your feedback gang.
I have  the next few days free to tune and providing all goes well give the local goat and hogs a rattle up

Geoff I have a 62" Tree Stick 40@28 and it likes 7 1/4" so somewere around that should put you in the sweet spot. Tim builds a great bow and if you have any questions he's a great guy to talk to also.

Hi I know this is quite an old post but I'd like to ask a clarifying question to those that said a brace height over 7" worked well for them.

Tim told me his recommenced height is 6 1/2, he says his own seem to like a lower height at 6 3/8.

Can you tell me which measurement you are using? From the inner most part of the riser or back of the bow?

Thanks
