Default TRU Sweet and Short

Does anyone shoot the Sweet and Short from T.R.U. Ball? I shoot the Scott Standard Caliper, and would like to go to a release with a shorter head to get back some draw length and pick up some speed.

Default RE: TRU Sweet and Short

That is what I shot and I love it. I cannot say that the release is perfect but it is pretty close. With the head being connected by the rope, you cannot get the rope as short as possible, because you cannot tie the rope tight enough. So on the back hand side of the hole on the wrist strap, I have bent lock washers around the rope so the knot doesn't pull all of the way up to the hole in the wrist strap. Does this make any sense to you? I cannot explain worth a crap. Anyway another thing to worry about is when adjusting the release tension it is very finacky on how much you can go. Two times I have punched myself in the face at about full draw because the release tension was too low and couldn't hold the weight[:@][:@]. 1/4 of a turn is the differnce between perfect and punching yourself in the face. Once set up it would be a hard release to beat. I tend to have more trouble with things then the average person.
