    I got 2 TruBall releases and like them both, normally(see my other post). I use the Loopmaster for hunting and as a backup for 3-D and spots. Primary for spots and 3-D is a Trail Boss 4 finger, thumb trigger. This is normally a really good release, but I am having problems with it lately.

    Other than that, Carter, Stanislawski, Zenith, and Scott all make nice relaeases, just get the one that feels good to you.

    I like the wrist strap caliper type I have an older cobra and dont have a problem with it. however at the archery shop last weekend I used one that I really liked the release was soft and smooth. I forgot to get the name . I was going to buy one on line without trying it cause the prices are way better so I figured one of you guy's might have one you really like.

    I really like my Carter release. It's a crisp trigger like a target rifle.

    I have the older model (The One-shot). I like it enough that I don't feel a need to upgrade. Those quick-shots look neat too.

    I use truball copperheads and really like them. Smooth trigger adjustible and comfortable. I think all truballs are nice though.

    I use a couple of Scott Little Bitty Goose releases. You can get one with a velcro wrist strap or a buckle. Very small and unobtrusive with an adjustable and crisp trigger.

    Sorry to re-hash an old post, but I just got back from the Kinsey's show in Hershey...TRU ball is nice, but Scott Archery had the best releases there. Awesome people...really nice to deal with.

    I like the Scotts. A good release with good customer service after the sale. I lost the trigger off of mine after having it for almost two years. I emailed Scotts and they sent me two triggers absolutely free. Nice folks.

    +1

    Easy to adjust and very good if you are shooting a loop.
