An observation/question on Brace Height and Shooting...
I' m notorious for shooting/owning/selling many bows and I' ve owned about 14 different bows over the last 5years. I' ve always noticed that the general belief on these and other boards is that BH is the key to forgiveness and accuracy....Well I' ve owned bows w/ BH as low as 5 3/4 " (PSE Baby G) and as high as 8" (High Country Brute Force and Hoyt Havoc) and about everthing in between. These aren' t factory spec BH (I don' t think) but what they were after I found the " sweet spot" . I can honestly say that I' ve noticed very little difference in accurracy between any of the bows I' ve owned...In fact, if I had to rank them, I' d rank the PSE Baby G and the Havoc as a tie for #1 in the accuracy dept. The Baby G had attributes that I did not like that may be related to BH, like recoil and vibration but IME it had no effect on accuracy. The most unpleasant bow I ever owned was the High Country Brute Force which probably had the highest BH of them all. How big a consideration should BH be in selecting a bow? I say it is pretty much a non-issue with todays modern bows. When you look at and compare bows, is BH a deciding factor?
