If your talking about the Pro Diamond extreme I used it for years and was never really happy with it, it seemed loud to me too. I left it at the cabin on a hunt last year in Illinois and my buddy loaned me an extra caliper release and Ireally noticed a difference in the practicality of the wrist caliper in verses a hand held.There is alot less room for error in case shaken by a monster buck.I can recommend a goodwrist caliper Iam happy with and that is the TruFire Bulldog extreme. It only has one moving jaw and imo feels alot smoother on release. But make no mistake the Tru Ballwill still go but it will be on hot standy if something happens to my new release.
