Release or Fingers

RE: Release or Fingers
i crushed some fingers on my right hand and qualify for a x-bow permit if i wanted it, so i have to shoot a release, which is what i prefer, if they outlawed releases, i would have to shoot a x-bow to stay legal, i have very little grip strenght in my right hand, the good finger shooters are amazing though

RE: Release or Fingers
Release here but I guess it is whatever yer comfy with. I did us fingers but I find the release you don't have as much time to react to the release of the arrow. Just my opinion though.

RE: Release or Fingers
I started with a release and find it hard to shoot fingers. Just feels wrong to me? I want to learn to a shoot recurve though, so I have been playing with it. I wish I would have learned on a recurve or long bow first, oh well.
I just have trouble getting a clean release is all.
I may switch to a backtension release on my coumpound. I am always trying something different.

RE: Release or Fingers
I first started using fingers then went to a wrist release but did not like it so then I went to a hand held release it gives me a much better feel.
I still use fingers on my recurve tho
Did not vote cause you dont have "both" listed
