Default looking for a new release

I'm looking to buy a new release & wanted to see what u all thought about yours. What's the pros/cons? I use a trigger w/wrist strap. Leaning towards tru ball, but have looked @ copper john, & what about the new scott shark? My old hurricane ball bearing finally wore out. Looking for something smaller. thanks for your help.

Scott does make good releases, and I have a couple. Nothing compares to the trigger on my Carter 2 Shot.

I just recently bought a Scott Mongoose in place of a 6 year old Tru Fire. What a difference, nice crisp clean trigger and single handedly improved my league scores. It is the larger of the Scotts so if you are looking for a smaller type release, maybe try the Scott Lil Goose, or Itty Bitty Goose.

I have a scott mongoose, at the time it was the best, I saw above someone mention a new scott, I'll have to check it out. The mongoose has a single caliber, and buckle, totally the way to go.
