I am just about to start shooting with a thumb release, this was the tutorial i was looking for, well explained and simple to implement. Keep up the good work. Thank you very much.

Carter Wise Choice. The newer one has tension adjustment only, no trigger travel adjustment at all. Love it.

I have a Wise Choice and really like it. I added the adjusto trigger and the new UV button thumb barrel and its super comfortable. Although I'm having a hard time deciding which I like better the Wise Choice or the Noc On Backstrap index tension release. I shoot about the same with both and I like them equally.

@@75superfan I’ve never shot a true tension release but for target work I believe that would be one awesome trainer tool.

Another thing I've learned is that it helps to anchor the thumb somewhere ... whether its to my pointer finger or the body of the release, it helps to cut down on punching the trigger.

I do what some call the closed loop. My barrel is set where my thumb wraps to where the thumb tip is resting on the release for reference point. I do not relax my hand or fingers and let the release slide in my grip. My technique is to just pull a little harder as my pin float is where I want it. I don’t focus on the pin but the spot I want to hit. At the last second as the pin is there the shot breaks. After hundreds and hundreds of serious slow uninterrupted shots I began to realize the best hits came at the last second when my mind and vision went to and were focused and locked down range on the target spot. The unconscious timing on the break is what makes it work. Your conscious mind is on the target but the motor skill timing is an unconscious act. No thoughts about commanding a shot. It just breaks. When this happens the arrow will hit behind the pin. My best shots break at about 8 seconds. The really great part is my mind is not going back and forth from telling hand to relax and then back to the target. Like 10 times a microsecond. That crap is gone. I am in control, not the pin float or the bow or whatever.

Excellent. I think the thing that get's lost for most people is the slight relaxing of the hand. I know when I first switched to a thumb style from an index and also when a good friend of mine did, we kept the hand tight and tried to pull and it felt very awkward pulling against the wall. Then you start developing a punch, which we all know is bad. Really liked the slow mo, very helpful!

Yup thats what I run. The blade. Used many releases and the blade is the one that works for me.

I thought you were supposed to put the trigger deep in your hand. I have that same release and the way the shaped it made me think that you put your thumb on that indent on the body of the release. And I saw some videos on rotating your hand to send it but this makes sense gonna try this way

Othet trick is to buy the new Goat thumb trigger assembly amd add it to the blade. Wow. Perfection

Just switched to a silverback. I understand the V on the index and middle finger for your anchor, but how do you know how far back? Or are you finding consistency through nose placement and the peep alignment? Seems like the V of the fingers could change further forward or back on the jawline

@chriswhitley13 13 күн бұрын

I thought you were supposed to keep the release horizontal. Turning the V of your fingers so that it falls into your jaw puts the release in a near vertical position, and torques the D Loop.

I tried using my new thumb release and punched the trigger with my cheek when I went to bring my eye to the peep and the arrow fuckin shot off into the sunset scary shit

You're "pulling" into the back-wall but you HAVE to relax your hand some too right? There is no other way for the release to move into your thumb unless your hand is moving backwards and the release is staying in place. I hear many videos talk about "push and pull" but the reality is it's "push, pull and relax/rotate hand so the release has an opportunity to move into your rigid thumb" right?

@glenncharles6622 Жыл бұрын

I believe this is correct but would love to hear others thoughts. When I pull into the back wall and begin to relax my hand I am consistently getting a better release. Thoughts?

@NicKuczala 11 ай бұрын

Don’t know if I’m fully correct, but it seems like Levi Morgan suggests slightly relaxing the index finger as you pull through the back wall. Don’t have much experience with this, but looking forward to trying it out and seeing how it does.
