New Hunting Thumb Release Suggestion

[Bjankowski]

Can't beat a Stan; I've been shooting Stanislawski for competition and hunting forever, never liked a wrist release. I've still have several Mag x's I've had over 10 years that still shoot as good as the day got them. A Stan will never let you down. For hunting just hang it on your D loop.
Whatever you go with you won't regret it, once you get used to a thumb release you'll never go back.

That’s the truth. I don’t even own a wrist rocket anymore.

Well I'd seriously disagree with you. There's a bunch of animals that died because of my Chocolate addiction and lites...


Oh and I drive a Ford too...

I’m talking from a target accuracy point of view. You can even ask Michael Braden. Not to mention the chocolates will hit different than most other releases because of that jaw. Example. My target 4 hits the same spot as my hinge, and all my other thumb buttons. Every time I tried to use the chocolate or lite they would hit 3-5” left and would affect my tune. It’s just the way the loop is coming out of that Jaw. It’s not at clean.

I'm going to guess it is your form. There are a lot of folks who wrote on this forum what a great release it is. I was deadly accurate center bulleye. There was no pulling to the side. The release was smooth. I could also switch between my old wrist release and the Chocolate Addiction.

What I didn't like and this would likely be true for all thumb release is once in the cold I drew back on a hog. Right before I got to full draw the release hit the collar on my jacket and released the arrow over the back of the hog.

It is still my backup release though before I go back to the release I had before it.

Just so folks know what a chocolate addiction looks like

I'd have to agree, you need to check your shooting form... OR stick with what you like... I'll do the same. I have no problem with the Addiction or Lite and accuracy. Only problem I have ever had is to instinctively drop the release after the shot (an old habit from wrist strap release shooting...) I still do it, but I served a string loop about 9" long to the 3rd finger slot and I just loop it over my wrist when I am spot and stalk hunting. Stand hunting, I clip the release to my loop.
