Default RE: A simple change..... a world of difference

I'm still playing with both. I have 2 Scott Lil Gooses and the new one the SilverHorn is also made by Scott. I really think I'll end up using the SilverHorn. I'm giving my old Darton to a friend to get him started in bowhunting and will give him one of the Lil Gooses and keep the other in my fanny pack as an emergency release. Right now I had been shooting the Lil Goose better but that was because of the anchor problem with the SilverHorn. I only shot a few arrows after all the changes as I was getting tired of pulling that 70 pounds. I'd shot for an hour or so. But the last few were true and felt really good. I was much more solid and locked in when I settled in. This new release is much better for hunting. You can feel and hook it without having to look at the loop. Len turned me on to that little trick too with feel. I can load it as fast with my eyes closed as I could the old release with my eyes open. And in low light the old jaws type release was an adventure to load. He also got me on the nose button for hunting. If I draw with my eyes closed the nose button touches the tip of my nose I can open my eyes and am looking dead through the peep.
