    Hair trigger. No Travel. I also own the Spott Hog Wise Guy. Until they improve on this design, I won't be using anything else. Very happy.

    I shoot a TruBall BT3 for indoors and for hunting the best wrist strap for me is a TruBall Short-n-Sweet with the swept back trigger. I shoot it with an open hand and not just my index finger and than back tension. I have shot many different thumb and trigger releases always looking for something better, but I allows end up back with my Short-n-Sweets.

    I was in love with the short and sweet then moved up to the carter rx-1 same general looks but it performs much better, much crisper with not much over travel and heavier settings

    For the money, the short and sweet II can't be beat.

    Double the cost and the carter's are unbelievable.

    I guess there are a few preferences. I'm leaning towards the lighter trigger but I'm good either way.
    I've got the Chill'R but I'm still shooting the MR7 and I just want all releases ( one for each bow and a back up) with the same tension.
    Thank again for all the input everyone.
