Default Jim Fletcher Jimi T release

I bought a jimi t release today and I'm less than impressed. Disappointed actually. The trigger was WAY too hard to pull (I mean I was sqeezing the hell out of that thing to get it to go off!)When I tried adjusting it the screw was so damn hard to turn that I warped my allen wrench and rounded off the head. Now I'm screwed.

Not only that, but the head doesn't rotate. My natural anchor point torques the loop really bad. Overall, I'm just not impressed at all with this release. I think I've been HAD to the tune of 70 bucks. After shooting that release for an hour, my old WINN free flight glove felt SO good. Why did I have to go experimenting? I just tossed away 70 bucks. If it ain't broke....[:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@]

I'm going to go tomorrow to try to get a refund and buy a Truball Pro Diamond Extreme.

Default RE: Jim Fletcher Jimi T release

I know what you mean. Last year I tried some back tension releases. A couple of Carter's and a Stan and all I ended up with was back to my trigger release, a couple of busted arrows, and fat lips.[:@]

Always gotta tinker.
