RE: RAZORTEC HAS " FUNKY" RECOIL
To the third part of your question.I believe that Hoyt prefers to keep reflex to a minimum and to get speed out of the parallel limbs you must have a high reflex,even though the brace is still good the reflex is not.IMO
I would think that my riser at 22" on my Ultratec is plenty long and a brace over 7 3/8" and reflex of 1.25 should be great for anything that you wish to do with a bow.
