Satori bow build

[Lprough]

Satori recurve build. What starting point for brace height?

Hoyt satori riser 17”
Uuhka Gobi long limbs
62” overall length

I was figuring starting at 8”???

Going to be a process and hoping for a fun project.

That sounds about right.

My 19” satori with medium Uukha limbs is tuned at a 8” brace height.

My 17” satori with long uukha uureg’s likes 8.5” with a 595g arrow

The 17" satori has a lot of deflex. I'm at 8.5" with XL uukha sx+ and the bolts turned in most of the way. anything under 8 3/8" doesn't leave enough of the string groove visible for my taste. With longs, you might be able to go a little shorter.

Thanks.

I'm around 8 1/4" with a 19" Riser and medium VX1000's.

I used this as a starting point.

I started at 7.5 that they set up at RMS and now I’m about at 8. I had to increase for a stiffer spine. Eichler says In a video to start at 8 and work in increments of 3 twists. I thought it shot great at 7.5 with lighter spined arrows but as I made a heavier hunting set up it had to be raised to get a tune.

My brace is set at 8".

Anybody using a rest on their 17" satori or just shooting off the shelf?

I'm shooting 8" with Long Uukha Irbis and a 19" Optimus 2.0 Riser, which should be similar deflex wise.

I shoot a NAP flipper rest.

My 21 inch satori with long Uukha Selengas is real happy at 8.5 in BH with a springy and a endless loop 8125 string.

I shoot off the shelf but have been considering going elevated. Tried out trad vanes this year and it went pretty well. 19" riser though.

I run just a hair over 8" on brace height.

I'm putting together a similar rig (Satori 19" and Uukha Gobi mediums 45#), but still have to decide on the string. Would you recommend the endless loop 8125 string? I'm new to ILF bows
Thanks!

Yeah man I started building my own 8125 endless loop strings on a jig i built outta unistrut. I have 45 bucks into the jig and string is cheap. It is a fun little project on a rainy day and I can build a ton of strings for cheap. If you can serve your own serving on you can build an endless loop string.

You guys shooting from a rest, do you have to chase tiller as rest elevation changes?

I'm about a week into this ilf thing myself.

 

[Hawkeye29]

I shoot an elevated springy with the accutune and I’m still at an even tiller. Also use a fixed crawl about 3/4 of an inch. It shoots better than I can so I haven’t seen a reason to play with tiller yet.

Do you use the springy for hunting as well?

 

[Hawkeye29]

Yeah for sure! With some thin heat shrink on there it’s very quiet on the draw. I chose the springy because it lets me shoot trad vanes. Up here in Washington they are a must in the rain.

For some context my setup:
-17” Satori
-Uukha Selenga Medium 45lbs.. (41.5 at my 25.75 draw)
-TTT String 7-15/16” brace
-5/8”s nock height

Arrows
-600 spine Easton Axis Traditional cut to 28.25”
-445gr with 175 total up front (turkey/3D arrows)

That is very valuable info for me, thanks! Interesting that you are using 600 spine on 40#, but I guess they are stiffer if you cut them at 28"
