trigger control is trigger control. a light trigger can make technique issues show up. but does not mean it cant be done by anyone. if you shoot when you are sweeping the target because you cant hold your sights still, then it does not matter what kind of release you have. that's a technique issue, not a release issue.
There are very few that are succesful at the highest levels using a light trigger. One I know in particular that admits he doesn't use back tension to fire his release has won many 3-d shoots in the pro division' admits that it is not using back tension that has kept him from being very competitive at indoor,vegas style archery. This is something taught by every high level coach in archery. Not just one man's opinion on the net. Again,I stand by the statement that it is very hard to lay your finger on a hair trigger while trying to aim and apply back tension. Especially in a hunting situation. But of course there are exceptions to every rule.
that logic would dictate it would be impossible to shoot a free pistol accurately..... you don't rest your finger on a hair trigger while aiming, you bring your finger to the trigger once the sights are lined up and you are ready to fire. with a slow steady deliberate pull through the trigger. I get the whole gross motor skill deal, but that does not mean with some training you cant do fine motor skills. I watched video of a bronze medal match in vegas the other day and the guy that got 4th absolutely hammers his trigger, which to me would be horrible form, but he did pretty darn well for himself. and he is not just some guy on the net. and the obvious rebuttal would be that the three guys above him did not shoot that way . but the fact is that it can be done and is all personal preference. regardless of how many people's opinions are that they prefer one method over another.
Again, the discipline of archery is completely different than pistol or rifle shooting. One does not translate to the other. Hair triggers are the way to go there. I did say there are exceptions to every rule. My coach/ friend has coached 4 youths that have set world records. He teaches no hair triggers for the same reasons I have stated.

This is starting to get me to change my thinking and putting a longer trigger pull on my release... I have a nice release but i might get the tru-fire hardcore max and crank it up to 16 oz pull Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
Its not longer you want. Little to no trigger movement with more pressure is the key. Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk 2
So then a short trigger with high pressure is good so the Tru-fire hardcore max would bee perfect for that Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
Idk, haven't played with that release. I know my tru ball short and sweet does a great job at an affordable price. Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk 2
That's good to know I'm thinking about making the change over in about a month Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
