Default problem w/release

Here's a new one. I was shooting this morning, & my bow prematurely released while drawing back. I'm using a TRU Ball Deluxe Tornado & a loop on the string. I actually duplicated the problem several times, while drawing back.I made sure that my finger was behind the trigger ea. time. I've never had a problem w/this release, & have owned it for several yrs. There appears to be no obvious damage or loose parts. Any Ideas?

Contact T.R.U. Ball and explain the problem to them. They are supposed to have excellent customer service. http://www.truball.com/

A premature fire is a nice reminder to aim towards the target during the draw.
When my tornado did that I spoke with the company, sent it in and they replaced something (balls?) inside the head which corrected the issue.

Alot of releases have adjustable trigger pull weight such as the one I use. Make sure your trigger weight didnt some how become too light.

Try increasing the tension just a little using the allen screw accessible through the trigger. If it is set too light, it will release when put under tension.
