Default Different release for problem shoulder???

Recovering from tendenities[spelling?] in my shoulder. Was wondering if a T-handle release would use more forearm muscles than strap release,making it easier on shoulder?? I don't have a clue, all I have ever used is a strap. Maybe someone has had experience with this...don't know where else to go for info.Thanks

Easiest pulling release on the market is the Winn Free Flight.

Trigger travel/pull is sloppy comapred to just about everything else, but I used one for years with great success.

It literally makes your bow weight feel several pounds less than it is.

I use a Tru Flite hurricane glove which is pretty much the same glove as the Winn glove and while I agree that it distributes the weight over the entire hand vs. the wrist alone making it easier tp draw the bow, I see no way that it could take any weight off of the shoulder. Your shoulder is still going to still have the same ammount of weight pulling against it.

Really the only way to reduce the ammount of weight on your shoulder is to lower your draw weight.
