Not sure Don. I have just been working and sleeping since I got the bow and haven't had a chance to play more with it. I am off tomorrow and will post that measurement.

I am bracing the bow between 6.25 and 6.5" from the string to back of handle.

That is an awesome bow!! Nice work Brad! Cool design and looks like it is bending real nice.  I bet that is a smooth pulling bow.  Lucky guy you are rsp3. 
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso
