Default RE: Fav. Thumb Releases

ORIGINAL: Redneck Bowhunter

Do you use true back tension releases for 3D? Hey Rick who makes theST-3? I have been Reading "Core Archery"by Larry Wise and I really want to use it, but I am having troubles with my short-n-sweet executing it. So i was thinking along the lines of the thumb style for hunting.
I shot ahinge (BT release) exclusively for a year and a half for everything but hunting. The ST-3 is a open hook designed thumb trigger made by T.R.U. Ball.

If you are thinking of going to a thumb trigger to help you shoot using backtension, your making a big mistake I feel. Learn how to do it with a true hinged release until it is subconscious and then switch back.........

Honestly a good coach would be the best thing you can spend money on if you really want to learn how to execute a clean shot out of your back. If you have interest in this, let me know and I would be willing to help you finda good coach in your area.
