Default Jim Fletcher Fletch hook?

Do any of you guys or gals use this release? If so what do you think? I'm planning on upgrading from a True Fire Hurricane and this is one of a few I'm considering.

My father "used" the hook. Any severe hand torque while drawing the bow back can make your string loop/bow string slide off the hook.

He wasn't impressed and soon got rid of it.

Also, you're going to have to keep an eye on it while in the stand. It's not a click it and forget it release.

When a buck enters into my location, my first instinct is to click on my release. Then I can focus 100% on the buck walking into my stand vs. making sure the hook is correctly positioned on the loop.

Just my thoughts. Everybody is different.

Thanks, that is not something I need to worry about while I have a deer coming in. My list just got shorter.

I haven't tried this release-I have used the Fletcher Jim Dandy Loop model and am less impressed.

I've always been impressed with Scott releases-use a Scott Rhino. They have a Silverhorn model that is impressive.

my son is using a Scott Sabertooth and that works extremely well.

another fine choice is the loop model from Carter.
