Default RE: A REALLY GOOD HUNTING RELEASE ??

I was just about to post the same question.
I have been using a Tru-Fire of some kind so long I can't remember the model.
But I had to shorten it so as to not loose too muchdraw length. Watch that. It can put your anchor back behind your ear!
So I've noticed Fletcher offers a "shorty", as well as a model specificaly for string loops. Called a Hook Release. They are more than the team Primos, but if they'l do the job with the features I want, it's worth the money.
Besides, it's time for a new toy anyway and a hell of a lot less than a new Mathews or Hoyt!
I'm leaning towards the Shorty over the Hook just because it has a velcro strap and the Hook has a buckle.
I also use a grip type release and like ti a lot for 3-D or competitions, but not practical in the field (no strap). I do believe however, that the grip release does pull higher poundages easier than a wrist type release.
Good luck, and good hunting!
