Hi All,
I am a good recurve archer with good technical skills and knowledge about recurve bows.
HOWEVER - I have picked up an older wooden bow and need to get this set up / tuned etc. Obviously as it is a one piece bow I am limited with what I can do. But I do need to know certain things to help.
Also, please could you let me know what type of bow it is? That would help a lot! Is it a flat bow, horsebow, traditional? Or just a stick?
Hoyt Xpert
64"
30lb
1. Brace height - what should the brace height range be for a Hoyt Xpert wooden bow?
2. Rest - There is currently a stick on leather rest similar in shape to a hoyt super rest. This needs changing. Should I put on one of those white Hoyt Super rests, or a Shibuya stick on, or just remove it all completely and shoot off the shelf?
Thanks for the help.
James
