It's hard to truly shoot back tension with an index finger fired release, but not impossible. I developed target panic after many years of shooting that style. Shot a thumb activated, it helped, but my mind soon realized that it could control when that went off as well. If you want a true surprise, you'll probably want a hinge style or a true back tension release. That's what I use now, a carter evolution. The nock-on silverback is the same in a two finger version. It has a thumb safety on it that allows you to draw, once drawn you let off the safety and it will fire once you've reached a certain poundage against the wall. Mine is set to break at about 18 lbs for a 71 lb draw. It's the only thing that has helped my target panic. I say helped because I think it's like alcoholism-you're always an alcoholic - you just don't drink anymore.

What kind do you use and what are the advantages over HSS?

One thing I really like about those life lines is they light up like a sting of LED lights when you hit them with a flashlight. Makes it very easy to find your stand in heavy timber or unfamiliar areas.

Only 2 more days for most of MS. I've already got most of my stuff packed.

I haven’t heard much yet. It was 95 degrees and he passed a 140 earlier in the hunt.

Wow. I would have been back at the camp drinking beer and celebrating my 140.

Not if you know a 200 incher is on camera in the area and think you have a chance at him

Cant wait! Wish it opened Saturday, but Sunday will do.

Opens Saturday in MS. Daughter and I will be in our lock-ons saturday afternoon in the heat. She has a friend at school who hasn't killed one with a bow either and they are trying to do it before the other does.

bow hunting?
I would have shot the 140
then stayed on the stand waiting on the 200

This is my thinking. I have not killed a big enough archery buck to pass up a 140, regardless of what has been spotted on camera.

It's called patience.
Now he has a 200 deer going on the wall and a good chance at the 140 being a 155-160 next year.
