Default Glove release vs. Wrist Strap

Are wrist strap releases more accurate than glove style releases? I was told that wrist strap releases are more accurate because something like they tend to pull the string back in more of a straight line and with the glove release you tend to torque the string more???

I like the wrist myself. Here tell there is a glove, by Manzella I think, and you can use the wrist strap and keep hand warm. I feel I can pull the bow eaiser if I can use the wrist as some extra strength

If a glove release is being used, it should have a rotating head on it, this relieves the string torque. If you're getting a glove without a rotating head I wouldn't get it. As long as you have that swiveling head you'll be fine. Personally, I almost opted to go for a glove style release but decided to stick with a scott. I guess I've just grown to accustomed to shooting a regular wrist-style release.
