Title: Predator lobo elite brace hight
Post by: UncasUK on August 25, 2021, 06:45:09 AM
As above, can anyone help please.
I have a 62'' hybrid lobo elite, bought new but missing
instructions/leaflet etc.
Also if you have one what is your thoughts on the bow
regarding shooting & quality.
Regards to all from an English Trad-bow fan.

With a hybrid I would start at around 7" and tune from there, give or take.

The Length to the back of the string groovs is 62.5'' on my Lobo Elite, total tip to tip is 64''
I thought a string length of 59'' would be ok and give me a brace hight of 7.5''
It's giving 7'' so I will try and see if it will twist up and shorten.
Anyone have any better ideas.

How does it shoot at 7?  May not need to go any higher than that. Perhaps even lower.  I shot most of my mild and extreme r/d 64-inch longbows at a brace of 6 3/4.

Hello Orion,

The bow came with a 58'' string from Hunters nich, for a brace height of 7.75''
which I thought was a bit to much, so had another F/T sring made at 59''
and that gives me a brace hight of 7'' it seems so far to be shooting well at that height.
But further testing is necessary, so thank you for your opinion.
