I didn't vote on this one because I don't know much about bow design, and isn't the brace height a function of the bow design (riser design, limb design, bow length, etc.)?
Just asking, maybe I'll learn something.

Hello Strelnikov,
brace height is the distance from the string at rest (nock point) to the deepest part of the riser, Grip.
Shorter the Brace Height, the longer the string effects the arrow
Shorter = faster and less forgiving for form issues
Longer = slower and more forgiving

to be honnest i can't answer to that point, i did not shot enough bows to have an opinion on that...
my only references are my ex-BE and my actual extreme... i disliked other bows i tried
so i should shoot other brace height on oneida to make an opinion

I'm in a similar situation, I don't even know what the brace height is on the bows I shoot, just that Oneidas seem to be more forgiving than other bows, that's why I like them. So I guess I would prefer a longer brace height.
As for a specific brace height range I'm totally clueless.

Short means fast and long means accurate. I am pretty accurate on my own so I will go with short.
