RE: Winn releases- SS versus regular
I'm a big fan of the Winn because they give me a longer power stroke than most releases. (More Power! Ugh, ugh, ugh!) I ended up lengthening the bow's DL 1/2'-1" in order to get me back to my standard anchor point.
I also shoot my best NFAA field and 3D scores with them, even better than with my fancy target releases. (I have to put in a longer adjustment screw to remove some of the "crunchiness" in the release, but not so much that it's unsafe.)
Never used their regular release because I don't shoot off the string. Used the SS for a few years, but prefer their new loop hook model best of all (have three of them).
