RE: What kind of release are you guys using.
I went from a tru-ball tornado to a scott mongoose to a tru-ball Titan and am now looking to buy the new tru-fire Bulldog as Matt068 mentioned above.
I think the swing back lock (instead of trying to tuck into shirt sleeve) is going to besweet with this one.I like the fact that the the jawsslowly open when the trigger is pressed and spring closed when the trigger is let up (like a tru-ball) instead of snapping open, that along with the trigger forward design. yepI want one.

I use a Tru- Fire Hurricane release.
I have no complaints about this release. It's adjustable for length, adjustable for trigger pull, pivots out of the way, availablein either a buckle or velcro strap (I prefer buckle) and the jaws remain closed until the trigger is pulled, no re-setting. Very solid hunting release.

I've been looking at that Tru-Fire bulldog.
I have a 2.5 year old Tru-Fire Team-Realtree something or other, and I really like it. It reminds me of
a nice crisp 3lb. rifle trigger. It takes some pressure, but you still don't know when it will go off.
It very, very rarely has a misfire b/c it's not real touchy (I don't want a hair trigger for hunting).
So far it has been a very consistent release, and I can't really blame any bad shots on the release.
Anyway, I was looking at the Bulldog, b/c it is trigger forward and I can gain almost 1/2 inch
on draw (Greg/MO talked about this in another thread about trigger forward designs), and I like
the lock back design. I like to keep my release strapped on and still do other stuff without it
getting in the way.
If anybody has anything else to say about the bulldog would like to hear it, but I'll probably wait
to buy this release for next season. No reason to change what's working.

Trufire 3D Hunter thumb release is what I'm using now, tried wrist styles and best one I found was the Trufire Judge. Either one of these two improved my accuracy over the other brands of hunting style releases I've tried, like Carter,Scott and Truball.
