    While out Saturday night my release fell out of my pocket. I was using the Winn C10 free flight. Are there any glove style releases where the release can be folded back so that your hand is still useful? I like this style as it definitely makes it easier to pull back.

    I don't know that there are any. I've only ever seen the one glove style release, and your hand is basically useless for anything else. Sorry. I know TruBall has a few 3 and 4 finger releases that you can attach a lanyard to, as well as a conventional wrist strap. Not sure if that helps, though.

    Your release should either be on your wrist or fastened to the handle of your bow with no exceptions and you will never lose another.

    I've got a true fire hardcore max release it's a wrist strap type but it folds back out of the way I would look into it

    I moved away from the glove style after I lost it so my hand is more useful. I picked up one of the Tru-Fire Wrist Buckle Foldbacks.
    I like the idea of fastening the release to the bow when not in use. I wonder when I can sneak out to the car and put it there while I am at work so I do not forget.

    On hand or on bow been doing it for nearly 30yrs and still shoot my original Fletchhunter... Does help you much with your lost one but once you get straight with another try the habit....
