Releases

I want to start shooting with a release. My question is which style, gated or caliper? Im not even sure about the gated term name. It looks like the caliper will wear on the string or loop as it releases but the gated could possibly force the string off center. I want to limit costs to about $60. I like the pistol grip such as the Winn free flight C-10. Which way do I go?

I use a fletchhunter release, which I have had a long time. It works great. I have two models, one that works by putting it around your wrist and one that you actually use by holding it with your hand. They both have a trigger type release, which is great. The trigger is smooth, and does not take much to send the arrow down range. Just keep your finger on the back side of the trigger while drawing the bow back, or you will send an arrow into the stratosphere!! Just try a few out and if you dont like them return em. Trial and error. I'm sure there are a million makes and models.
