RE: Who's hunting with a target release?
I do. Well, I will. Haven't before, but I will be shooting this season with my ST-3 (I believe it's the same one RJ hunts with). I've set my bow up with it, I've been using it for drawing practice, I've been shooting with it all spring/summer, and I'm just used to it, so it only makes sense to take it into the field. Besides, my anchor changes too much when switching to my trigger, and things need adjusting, so I'm going to keep it simple, and hunt/shoot with one release.

I hunt with a Tru-ball pinky extreme.Once I have my bow on a bow hook I close the jaws of the release on the string loop.I have never had an issue with my release dropping to the ground.

I hunted with a Carter Chocolate Addiction last year and did one of two things, left it attached to my loop, or simply kept it in my pocket. Both ways worked well for the three I killed last year.
