The recommended brace height is 7.5 to 8.5 inches. I shoot Super Kodiaks and Kodiak Hunters, and I’ve found that having brace height more than 8.5 inches, and less than 9 works best for me. My recommendation is to start at the highest manufacturer recommended height, i.e., 8.5 inches, and work down from there about a half inch at a time. If it get’s “worse” e.g., louder, arm slap, poor arrow flight all the way down, then 8.5 or 9 inches is probably the sweet zone. In general it’s going to depend on your draw length, arrows and shooting style.
