Releases

At the risk of being branded a heretic and blasphemer...I tried playing with releases.  Experimented with both mechanical and non-mechanical.

My takeaway is that it depends on your shooting style.

I shoot instinctual (or whatever kids are calling it these days).  I only hold at anchor for 1/10 second, or there abouts, and then pull through the release.

The releases don't work for me because I can't trigger the mechanicals at the right moment or toggle the non-mechanicals at the proper moment in my sequence.

Now, if you're a guy who holds at anchor until you feel the shot is right,  then they may give you a consistent release.  But it has no soul when you can't feel the string.

I'm working on it actually  :D

But it's a slow process, for me it's like learning to shoot all over again and doing it left handed.
