tru ball.  max pro 4


What I'm using now, spent under 100 bucks I think.

It's too stiff from the factory, but once you adjust it the thing shoots pretty good.  Also I took off the thumb barrel, I don't like extra junk on the release.

I didn't want a wrist strap, I like to keep it in a pocket and keep my hands free then when I'm on stand I hang the release from the D loop.

I know they have wrist strap models you can fold back out the way but still a pain with wearing jackets and stuff.

Awesome release. I have been shooting mine for awhile now and love it. If you set it up right you can get the "surprise" release every time you shoot making punching the trigger virtually impossible.

For trigger style releases(non back tension) nothing beats a carter quickie. Hands down the best trigger release on the market.

After shopping around I ended up buying the Scott Shark.  In many ways it has a similar feel as my other release but I like the trigger adjustability quite a bit - my old Cobra trigger is not adjustable.  I have only used the Shark for 2 shooting sessions so far and the preliminary indication is that my groups seems to have tightened up.  More testing to come.  I still think most of these releases are way overpriced, but I guess it's only money.

I hope I don't have to use the Scott warranty but it's good to know they are easy to work with.  Thanks for all your tips. :hello:
