Does anyone know the recommended brace height on a Jim and Buddy built bow that is 62 in. long and 50# at 28".

It's the same as Milton's , 6 1/2 to 7

Depends on the model,the Edge uses a lower brace of 6.5" to 7".But the older models like the Nova that were highly R/D ran for a 62" was 7.5" to 8.5".They braced higher to keep the string from touching the belly to make them legal for longbow rules for 3D shoots.

My 70 inch Edge is set at 7.

Thanks guys, mine is set at 7.25 but wasn't sure if I could go any higher or not.
