Hook style releases

Going off my other thread, I felt this deserves a thread of it's own.
Does a hook style release change your sight? Does switching to this style release mess with your shooting?
Pro's, Con's?

I am looking at the Tru Fire Hardcore foldback max and the Scott Rhino XT.
Quality will be a deciding factor for me.
Thought's, Opinions?

Thanks

 

I shoot the trufire hard core fold back. Best release I have ever used, and I highly recommend it!

They will shoot the same as any other index finger style release when it comes to sight alignment and shooting.

 

I absolutely love my hardcore max, super easy to get on the string and it didnt change point of impact or anything.

 

What may have some impact is if the length changes, more if your anchor changes or you make a change from say a wrist to thumb/back tension or vice versa.

 

Please take a serious look at the Scott. They're as good as it gets when it comes to releases and have the best warranty you could ask for

Hard to beat trufire for quality I love my hardcore max as well.

 

I've tried about every brand. For me, the Tru Fire harcore max is wonderful.

^^^ What he said...

I have a Scott Little Bitty Goose and a Rhino and they shoot differently based on length and anchor point. I haven't had a any trouble with either of my Scott's and I am looking at a Hex or Exxus.

 

When I switched from a tru fire wrist strap to a spot Hogg whipper snapper thumb release, it changed my anchor. I took a picture of my self at full draw and made changes from that

 

I have Tru-fire Hardcore Max and I love it. It has adjustable trigger tension which is really nice.

 

Go with a Scott. Best releases you can buy. I have a older model rhino XT I got a couple years ago and it hasn't let me down. It's holding up great and I can put up pretty good groups for just the average bowhunter.

 

I went from a caliper style to a a Scott Rhino XT last season. What will change your anchor is the length of the release. If you get a release, regardless of head, that you can adjust the length (Scott's NCS system for example), you can get it nearly identical to your old release. I did notice a bit of different in impact on left and rights. I believe this is due to the pressure on the string being different between a hook and caliper.

Either way, I love this little release. What I really like is the ease of hook up with a hook style. Not that a caliper is hard by any means, but I can hook up with this release without looking at the string.
