I have a Cobra glove http://www.fallfever.com/Cobra_Cobra...veRelease.html. I don't know why more of them aren't made like it. It is more like a real glove than a wrist strap and the release is attached at the wrist area and swivels back so you can put it on, tuck it in your sleeve and go on about things until you are ready for it. I'll probably get another when this one wears out.

I use a scott's lil goose also..
I have small hands and it fits well in my hand
and also it has a flexible neck that allows free use of my hand without
having the release in the way.

Tru ball tornado, Tru Ball Chappy Boss, and Scott Mongoose(backup). I guess they just feel right.

Fingers here also, I may not be able to group like the mechanical release guys past 30 yds on a 3d course, but 30 and under I can hold my own. Plus I've heard horror stories of people accidentally hitting the trigger during the moment of truth, and people dropping them on the way to there stand, or forgetting them all together. I've tried them, just can't seem to get used to them. Had a buddy that shot fingers, and sprayed arrows all over the target, he switched to a release last summer, and now is a very good shot. Just wasn't for me.

I use a Scott Rhino, and have a Little Goose for back up. Thinking of trying one of the new clicker releases for 3D shooting.
