Default Releases for tiny hands.

I've come to the conclusion that my Fletcher release is too big for me. Right now, the release rope and wrist strap are cinched up as much as I could get them. I still have to hold on so the release won't slip off my wrist and cause total disaster.[] I have very small hands and shoot directly off the string. Any suggestions?

Cobra makes a JR. It's what my exwife used, very small hands.

My wife uses a tru ball copperhead velcro wrist strap so you have plenty of room to tighten and with the strap instead of the rod holding the actual release head you can shorten it up alot.

It would be hard to beat the Scott Little Bitty Goose off the string.

Off a loop,the Short & Sweet IIis great by Tru Ball.

Carter Chocolate Light Thumb Release, or Spot Hogg Saturday Night Special... but I am a different breed, I love thumb releases, especially since I can use them more as a back tension style...



Ooops, just seen you shoot off the string. Perhaps a TRU Ball Copperhead would fit you, I could give ya more suggestions if you used a loop...[&:]

You might look at the Winn Free Flight. They have different size gloves, don't know if they would go small enought for you though.

I use the T.R.U. Ball Stinger JR.

I use the velcro one, but they make it with a buckle too.

The regular sized releases that I tried that had buckles wouldn't tighten down enough for my wrist. One of these days I may get my hands on the JRwith a buckle. I'm not the biggest fan of the velcro.

Good point,the velcro is noisy and isn't as consistant as a buckle.
