I shoot a Cobra ProCaliper release and it works perfect for me. I thought about going with a Scott but decided why change something when you already have something that fits me perfect.

I also use a Cobra pro and also have a True Fire as a back-up, just in case I need it.

Scott Mongoose,simple and tough.I' ve got two,just in case,but the way this release is made,the only reason I' d need a back-up is if I lost one.

I use a TruBall King George Talon Head. Using the pinky and thumb simutaniously seems to work very well for me. It is a bit loud to use for hunting though.

TRU Ball Chappy Boss. Work GREAT as a back tension release when using a bow with a solid back wall.

Scott Little Goose. I started with the Scott when I switched from fingers then got caught up in the BS and bought a TRU with adjustable trigger last year. I first, I shot very well with the TRU, but started having bad cases of target panic. I could be shooting awesome and then all the sudden I would fling one off the paper (this had never happened to me before). After struggling several rounds I went to my garage, strapped on my Scott and my problems were over! I am still using the Scott a year later and I have not had a problem since. The scott has a great trigger.

Scott Little Goose with leather buckle(NO NOISEY VELCRO), tried a Cobra before that and VERY audible click when fired and not as accurate. Had a Vista before that and it was JUNK!!!

U wont be sorry if u get a Scott...

If you have large hands get the regular Scott Mongoose...
