DK, as you know I shot Oneida bows for many years. Although that is quite a short brace height, it will not affect you so much as it would with a regular compound bow. Even non-Oneida shooters acknowledge that Oneida bows have always been one of the smoothest shooting bows going. The only thing I would really worry about is getting snapped in the wrist. It won't be as forgiving though as a Black Eagle with a longer brace height
