just aquired a legend, when i strung it brace was at like 7" this seems low to me i was thinking it should be 8 or 8 1/2. Thoughts?

I hope you like it as much as I like my Legend.

Brace height is very personal but the Brackenbury bows shoot well with a lower brace height as they don't have an extreme amount of deflex in the riser.

Sold one and have never found another. Wish i still had it, but the guy who sold it to me wanted it back

Jim Brackenbury told me the brace distance on the "the Legend" should be between 7 1/2 inches and 7 3/4 inches. He did extensive tests on this.

I have a 1990 Legend,always set brace at 7 1/2".
