Default new falcon arrived today!!

yeah, it got here today a little late, but thats cool. 53# @ 28 , my draw length is 28, the riser is bubinga with elm lims. I think it looks bad A$$. I put about 75-100 arrows thourgh her tonight and think that i may have too much spine(arrows are 29" cx maxima 350s with 4" helical feathers). Also there seems to be a little more buzz than my roomates(which is a 50# @ 28 attila). He is shooting the same arrows i am and his doesn't buzz like that. I think i may either have the wrong brace height or just an arrow that's too light. What do you folks reccomend? I'm new to the whole stick and string thing so any advice or words of wisdom would really "tickle my pickle"
thanks andy

Congrats.I have a hunter 2 with a brace of 7 3/4 in.I think between 7 1/2 to 8 1/2 is rec..Put some beaver balls on your string or other silencers. Mines shoots wood arrows with 5" feathers good,not the fastest arrows but straight.

where do you measure brace height from, the deepest part on the grip, or the front of the riser?

Ask three different bowyers, get three different answers. But I believe brace height on a Chel-Mateis from deepest part of grip to the string at rest.

Any pics?
