I use a thumb trigger when hunting. Actually I use a thumb trigger now 100% of the time for every venue of archery including 3D, indoor, field/fita, and hunting. I am using a Just Cuz for everything but hunting, and aTRU Ball ST-3 for hunting use. On the TRU Ball I use the modular wrist strap system thatlocks on and off the release so that I will never drop it and lose it........if things aren't attached to me I have a habit of losing them. With the open hook on the ST-3 I never have to worry about a loud audible click when cocking it, and I get the benefit of a super crisp sear style release without the noise that others worry about with a quality thumb trigger in the woods.

Today I am taking a break from shooting because I shot a 500+ arrows this weekend, but tomorrow I will be heading out for some quality shooting time and I will bring the camera so I can video how I am using the Just Cuz, how it attaches, etc. I cannot see how one would possibly have it slip off a loop. Some TRU Balls w/ the Talon Head specifically could slip off if you have VERY thin loop material, but I dn't know of a Carter that could if you are using it right. I can also show pics of the ST-3 I use for hunting,I have a feeling a ton of you that want to shoot a thumb trigger for hunting will try one of these because it solves all the problems and fears you guys are saying you havewith a thumb trigger for hunting purposes.
