Default RE: Thinking about a new release

ORIGINAL: TFOX

Be carefull with hair triggers.They are not good for shooting a bow.


There is no way to settle into the release and then fire the release properly.You must touch the release when you want it to fire and can't touch it untill then,this causes target panic,along with being much more inconsistant than laying on the trigger and pulling through the shot in a controlled manor,like with back tension.
I haveheard this before and I understand the concept but my experience(although limited) wasthat the hair trigger seemed to go offwith much less effort and was more of a "surprise"........where mytru ball requires an actualeffort to fire and there is no"surprise". I saw this as a positive since I don't shoot back tension nor do I pretend to. I do not "punch" the trigger but just pull with steady pressure.
