Chocolate Addiction
So, we recieved two semi's full of freight for our store today. Down in the bottom of one of the boxes were three releases we've been asking for since I started; Carter's Chocolate Addiction and Evolution and the Tru-Ball Trail Boss.
After shooting all three, I am indeed addicted to the Chocolate Addiction. Now, I can pro-form one of these and get a fantastic deal on it, but I would be interested in using it for hunting.
Have any of you use similar releases in the past in hunting situations? Did you like it? Dislike it? Positives, negatives?

Besides, I already have $120 worth of FMJs. I think I'm good on arrows.

I'd be interested in hearing about it as a hunting release as well...I currently shoot a Carter Quickie 2 Plus and think it is the smoothest I've ever owned. 
I believe all their releases are specially designed for loops. Good luck...

I shot a target 4, last year, for a while. I even took it hunting a time or two.
I liked it at first.......but then had little confidence in the release. I sold it pretty quickly. I had it slip from my loop a couple of times.....and I lost confidence.
I've actually been thinking of giving one another try......but I doubt I will.

Jeff,
I shot it quite a bit today and liked it really well. One of the other guys working tried to shoot it twice, both times he wound up poppinghimself in the face. I don't know if the loop slipped through or he didn't get it cocked right or what, but I can see how one could lose confidence in it real quick.
I don't know though... I think I'm in love. [With the release.
