Dr string stop question.

Post by gerald strine »

I bought a Mag340 with The Dr string stops all ready installed and I think my post are to long. With the string just touching the stops I have a bit over a 2 1/2 inch brace height.
Bow shoots fine but this sesames long to me, I believe 2 inches is the recommended brace length for a micro.
Any thoughts on this ?

Those bumpers are designed for the string to push on them when relaxed. The instructions say to set your brace height off the factory stops, then install the taller dR.bumpers. Before I shoot mine I set brace barely touching those with the string, and after shooting I leave it there the rest of the season. I wouldn't worry about it being high a bit.The difference between top and bottom brace height lines on my bow are 3/4" apart.

….. Gerald …. Would you think I would have steered you wrong with the way I installed the DrStirrup bumpers on there?

No I just needed an education so had to ask a question.
I am very pleased with the bow it is great.
