I shoot the New Scott Archery WildCat w/RCSit is just like the litty bitty goose but with the new trigger forward.

If I forgot any sorry.

This past season I bought a new release for hunting and voted as such. I bought a TruBall Copper Head....and am impressed with it. Formerly I was using a caliper release by ASS....Archery SHooting Systems...and for 3D and in my pack for back up I have a Carter Hole in the Thing. I also own a Trufire.

Rob,
Did you tryt the new Scott Wildcat release? I personally like that much better than the Copperhead, nicer trigger and a great loop release.......since I saw you are using a release this year.

My personal favorite loop release is the Scott Rhino.

You'll get a more natural fit and anchor with a loop specific release style than trying to figure out a proper fit on a longer barreled one.
I consider the Copperhead more of a long barreled release.......not quite like a Scott Mongoose but definitely not the style of a Wildcat or Rhino or Tru Ball Short and Sweet.

I hunted with the TRU Ball Ultra Xtreme with a wrist strap on it to hunt with. For everything else I am using a TRU Ball Backtension Gold.

Another vote for the Scott Wildcat…just another piece of the puzzle that contributes to good accuracy.

Carter Big Kid 3-D; If you want to get serious about accuracy get a Carter! I'm a gunsmith and there's no other sear system in the world on any release or rifle trigger that even compares to the sear on a Carter release.

I just love my Winn free flight. I have tried a few others but some odd reason I like my Winn. the caliper has lasted since 1991 and I did have to buy a replacement glove about 2 years ago.

Use a Scott Mongoose and really don't like it that much. I need one that I can extend the trigger out farther, this release is really cramping my shooting style. I have an old wore out Cobra release that gets used more than my good one.
