Default Need a new release?

I currently shoot a TruFire that is spring loaded. all of a sudden I am starting to have troubles with this release. Sometimes when I go to squeeze the trigger nothing happens as if im not squeezing the trigger hard enough. The release is operating the same as it always had. I am for some reason expecting it to be more sensitive, and it's causing me to shoot a wild arrow every now and then.

What kind of releases are you guys shooting? Should I go with a sensitive non spring loaded release? Your thoughts please!

I went w/ the tru-fire bulldog I love it.Especially good release if you are shooting a string loop it also folds down for arrow removal or climbing It is also adjustable for sensitivity if you like a hair trigger it can be set but I pretty much left mine at about factory setting and it was great

I shoot a Tru-Fire Hurricane with the Power Pad. I like it so much I just ordered another one as a back-up.

Speaking of True Fire Hurricane's...how do you adjust the trigger tension?
