Default RE: Are you good with a compound and no release?

I am not a professional but have been shooting compounds with fingers for 25 years and can shoot just as consistent as any release shooter. I believe that there are 3 keys to shooting good with fingers. 1 – Use a thin soft leather glove. Most three finger gloves are thick leather and do not allow the proper feel for a smooth release. I use military nomex flight gloves, available at the online auction place or any surplus store. 2 – The release technique is very simple; just relax your fingers with out moving any other part of your hand or arm. 3 – Don’t give up. Hope this info helps. FingerTom
