fingers v. release
 

Anyone here still shoot fingers?I grew up shooting fingers and love it, but everyone else I know shoots release. I have tried and don't feel comfortable. Just curious why you use them or don't.
thanks

I used to shoot fingers. I quit shooting for a while, and when I picked it back up again I tried a release. It is much more consistent. Also, many bows on the market today were designedfor usewith a mechanical release.

I do...Never changed from fingers...Seems to me if you can hit what you are shooting at, no
need to change...

that is how i feel. I never shoot over 20 yards and I can consistantly group at 25 in practice, but I plan on buying a new bow next year and I am aware that they are designed for releases and I am not to happy about that.

I'm a finger shooter. Most of my buddies shoot releases too, but they haven't convinced me to switch yet. They may be a little more accurate, but I promise you I can be ready to shoot quicker than they can. Where I hunt you don't have all day to look them over! Most of my kills have happened pretty fast.

i dont see what makes a bow either way when you buy one tell the man how you shoot and have it set up that way

A finger bow islonger than the short bows you see today...The Caribou is about 44 inches axle to axle, so you don't pinch your fingers when you shoot...

i use to shoot fingers all the time, took me quite awhile to make the change , but i finally did. theres nothing wrong with shooting either way, just do what is more comfortable to you

I like my release now, but you'll never leave your fingers in the truck or drop them from your tree stand :D
