Default Good Release?

I'm looking for a new release. I am currently shooting with a T.R.U. Ball titan and it is tearing up my d loops one after another (7 in less than a year). I was leaning toward a Scott Sabertooth or Silverhorn and was wondering what users have thought about them.

I just recently went through this. I bought 3 releases in a month. I started with a Carter Quickie 1, then a Scott Wildcat, a Tru Fire Hurricane Power Strap, then aTru Fire Bulldog. I settled on the Wildcat.

Good luck with your decision.

I love the Scott mongoose. Its all in what you like, but I prefer a single caliper style rathe than deul caliper realease. I have shot the mongoose and little goose, but I like the mongoose because it is a little beefier.

I have taken a file to the edges of my release calipers so they are not so darn sharp. It does help the loop from breaking down and I think it helps the loop to slide a bit better off the jaw or caliper.

Trufire Judge, Trufire 3D hunter, Carter chocolate addiction and Carter chocolate additiction liteare very good releases.

I prefer the Scott releases. I used to shoot the Scott Little Goose, But switched to the Wildcat 2 yrs ago and love it. The forward trigger is the way to go. Well worth every red cent I paid. I do have to say I have been thinking of trying the silverhorn.

I started shooting a scott string release years ago before the loops became popular, I still shoot it and love the release, I would imagine the rest of the scott products are just as good. I am not sure if they even make the string release any more, I haven't seen them in any catalogs or shops lately but if you could find one it is a good one, it reduces serving wear without a loop. Good luck to you...
