That's a quote -- verbatim -- from George Ryals, Matt... I was curious to see what you'd tell one of the world's best shooters.

His sentiments however are echoed by a lot of professional shooters who prefer triggered releases, such as Dave Cousins, et al. I personally watched Jeff Hopkins lose several thousand dollars last year during a shootdown as he had fired a shot over the back of a target before he had a chance to set up solidly in his shot sequence. If it can happen to Hopkins, whose resume rivals anyone in modern archery, it can and will happen to anyone.
