Default "Loop" release off the string?

Just curious, has anyone ever shot one of the "new" breed of loop specific releases like the Scott Rhino directly off the string?

Does it work? What was the result?

Range,
I shoot that exact release......(Scott Rhino) I personally wouldn't dream of trying it.[:-]

If you wish to try it......3 words: Mouthguard, Good Backstop.

Well...

Having never personally laid hands on one, I was just wondering...

I tried the Jim Dandy loop release and almost dry fired my bow three times. The release slipped of the loop. I also tried the Short n Sweet and it worked very nicely,but after what happened with The Jim Dandy i went with the Jim Dandy closed head for piece of mind. Didn't want to miss fire and hurt myself/ someone else or miss the buck of a life time.
