I agree, I will hunt this elk season with my old wrist release, but will have as a backup a thumb release. During my practice session I have noticed during long full draw holds, that there is more strain to the fingers vs the wrist release, which is reason I will hunt this season with the wrist release, until I can build the strength in the fingers to hold for 30 sec to minutes and still hold the target. Nice explanation on the post. Good luck this season, will share photos of our success this year!!
Bad information, I am new, been shooting for 2 weeks and always use back pressure to release a trigger, it’s very easy, lay your finger softly against the trigger, then using elbow and back muscle to pull the shot with a follow through, it’s Rocket science.
No way I mastered bow hunting in 3 days, 2 weeks is completely enough time to LEARN archery glad you got it figured out a little later then most of us. Crazy to think people spend years shooting everyday, for hours but in reality it’s as simple as a RU-vid comment
very helpful, thank you. i am in the process of changing from an index finger release to a button release. The pointers about shortening the draw length, adding the grip tape will helps lots
Thank you🙏🏼. I'm glad you liked the video. We have a lot of thumb button review videos on the channel. You can find them all under the “Archery” playlist. Let me know if you have any questions.
I did some shooting this morning here in upstate NY - a beautiful day. Still using the trigger release - that tip you mentioned in this video of using the part of your finger closest to your hand (first knuckle is how you described it I think), was huge for me. I did not know any better and had been using the end of my finger, beyond the last knuckle. By doing correctly as you showed here, my accuracy improved significantly, way way less bow movement by using the trigger release correctly. Thanks again 😊
