Much better. Not shot yet, but don't think that's going to be a problem.

Just read up on it and see if it mentions adjustable draw length. If so, just be sure yours in within that range. Then, shorten your draw. Almost everyone's is too long.

I quick fixed mine by changing to a shorter release. My draw length was a little too long.

I can easily do movements now that would have sent me to the ground last year.

Hell of a first kill.

I'm still with my very first bow Redhead Kronik @60lbs with redhead carbon furys, G5 Montecs fixed blade, Trufire wrist release, Trophy Ridge revolution rest. Going to upgrade my sight to the Trophy Ridge React this summer and get another release. I lost my 4 finger release when it fell out of my pocket last year I need to replace that.
