The list really is endless.
You want a thumb trigger? Wrist Strap?
Really, your best bet is to go to a bunch of proshops and try some different ones, or borrow your buddies.

I have a Truball Copperhead and love it

but I've been looking at the Scott Wildcat because I hear fantastic things about it as well.

There are too many numerous ones that will be fine, some better than others but it's all about personal preferences, bugets and abilities.

I picked up a Scott Sabertooth this year and I love it. It's nothing fancy, but it's built well, works great, and doesn't have a noisey velcro strap (available in both velcro or buckle depending on what you like).

The forward trigger design is nice as well. Really helps me to get the trigger into the sweet spot of my finger, not at my finger tip, and I believe has made me a better shooter.

I switched to the Scott Wildcat from a Scott Little Goose this year and I love the Wildcat. A great little release.

Can't go wrong with a Scott. I switched from a Cobra to a Scott Sabertooth. There was nothing wrong with my Cobra the Scott just seemed to be of a little higher quality. And I also like the way the sabertooth feels in my hand.

Looks like the wildcat and sabertooth are essential the same release, except one is a single caliper and the other is a dual.

I'm sure you can't go wrong with either of them.

Thanks for all the replies guys...I went to the bow shop today and tried a few different releases...I ended up getting a T.R.U. Ball Titan release. It fits like a glove and has a really smooth operation, I love it!

Here's a link if you are interested....
