Every bow I've owned before had one thing in common: the closer to the highest recommended brace height the slower albeit quieter the bow shot. Lowering fistmele always resulted in a smoother draw & faster arrows, but louder (many times LOTS louder) shooting. Up till now that is. I've already shot my Morrison Dakota enough to realize that this sexy lil rocket breaks almost ALL the rules, but I've found yet another one. When I got it I quickly got it shooting good, and was very impressed w/the smoothness of draw, the cast of an arrow from it & it's stable feel. Ain't no 60" "longbow" supposed to feel/shoot like that @ 30" draw! As I prefer a quiet shooting bow I had automatically started out near the max specs for brace. Well this evening I decided to try lowering the brace height to see just how fast it'd shoot, and to my great surprise the more I lowered it the quieter it shot! I wound up w/it at the lowest recommended setting, & it draws smoother, shoots faster, and to my great astonishment is even noticeably quieter!! This ain't supposed to happen is it?? Wow, this is some lil bow Morrison is building, it really does break all the rules! Simply amazing!!
