    its all about personal comfort

    anything by Scott is decent

    are you not happy with the Short and Sweet? get another and go with what you know

    I am curious why its on its way out? could it just use a good cleaning ?

    Got the Velcro strap and it’s worn out. Try to draw and off it comes. I used hockey tape to hold it on this weekend and it worked fine. I like the hook style release but don’t keep up with the pace of technology so I thought I’d see what other guys are shooting.

    yes I am aware that Velcro straps suck

    I'm using the fang 3 release. Love it no complaints. Blake said earlier it's personal preference I actually shot tighter groups going from a wrist released to a handle release

    Did it change your anchor point at all? I would worry about losing something that isn’t attached to my arm.

    your anchor does change slightly

    most people find their groups tighten because they don't have a lot of movement with the thump release or scapular motion style of release

    there are very few people in the world that shoot a wrist strap championship level .. however Michael Braden is one of them.
