Release

So I think I know the answer to this but I'll ask anyway. My release just broke after a month. I really liked it. It was a trufire patriot. Felt comfortable and had a hair trigger.

Before I replace it withe the same thing thought I'd see if anyone knew of anything better. Only paid $22 for it but would be willing to spend $10-15 more.

Contact the manufacturer and I'll bet they send you a new one. Scott did that for me.

I have only ever used a Scott ..I have had mine for a very very long time ..Never any issues and still works as good or if not better than when I bought it

I was going to try and return to the store first. That's why I thought I might spend a little more.

Spot Hogg Wise Guy. Lightest trigger on the market and zero trigger travel.

Scott is a pretty darn good release.

For $35-40 there isn't much out there better than what you have.  The step up in quality usually starts around $60 (Scott).  Did the release head break or did the strap connection break?  Tru-Fire is known to have some connection breakage, but the release itself is usually sound.  Good thing is Tru-Fire has been known to have great customer service.

I'm a Carter Quickie (retail about $95-100) fan, but have used Scott and Tru-Ball with good results too.

Been using the same Spot Hogg Wise Guy for 7 years. No problems other than leaving it in my pack on accident and realizing it when I went to pull back on an elk

Another vote for spot hogg wiseguy with buckle strap if you dont mind saving up a little. If not scott and truball have great cheaper releases. I would stay away from trufire. Youre not the first one ive heard of that had a trufire break.

Ive always been a scott shooter but any of ones mentioned are all top quality.  Carter, truball, spott hogg and scott all great releases.

For all the Scott release fans, what model would you suggest?  I'm also looking for a release that is less <$60.  Anyone use these two?

If I don't have it on my wrist, I have it on my bow because I am just the kind of guy who would forget it too
