how to brace and unbrace a longbow

[m9a9g9i9c]

ok, with a little help of one of my friends I got the string on my longbow, but I want to change the brace height to 6" ( 6" 1/2 now ).
How do I get the string over the end of the bow ??? I don't have the muscle.
Is their an easy way to do this ?

Use a stringer, step thru method, or push pull method. But I suggest purchasing a stringer for safety.

BC,

a stringer it will be , push and pull doesn't work on my own, I'm still a few inches short and inbetween the legs hurts, this is a fine longbow, no flat surfaces of curves to hold the bow between the legs.

thx anyway.

YOu can make your own stringer. If you got some real flexible leather and a some parachute cord.
