Just got a Mathews Switchback, it has a string loop. Which release should i use, with the string loop. I have always used a cheap HHA release on my old bow.
Gonna buy a new release, need advice on which one. Thanks....

This is what I use as it is a hook design which is easy to load up . . no pinchers but rather more like just grabbing the string loop with a hook. Very easy to use and get used to and very smooth. . .

There are a million choices. I shoot a Carter Quickie and love it. It has a good solid head with a reliable hook and a comfortable trigger. Works nicely for me.

I just picked up the Scott Mongoose and after the intial getting used to it, I'm really liking it.
http://www.scottarchery.com/products/mongoose-ncs.tplSpoke with a few people and it came recommended. Wasn't sure about the nylon attachment to the caliper at first, but it's nice and a person will be able to tuck it back under your cuff when you need to.

I like the Scott Caliper release with a buckle strap.
I hate the sound of ripping velco in the the early morning, I just do.

I use the Little Goose model from Scott Archery. Smaller version of the Mongoose. And it has a leather wrist strap.

Yep, Scott Lil bitty Goose With Nylon Attachment and buckle Strap. Had the Lil Goose before but like this one better. Can't go wrong with a Scott. Get your bow shop to let you try several models of the Scott. I'm sure one will feel right to you.

I gotta go with the Little Bitty Goose with a buckle. The head on it is tiny and with the string I just tuck in under my sleeve and it is on from when I leave the truck til I get back.

The little bittle goose has cost me the following.
Really Cheap - $0.04 per day.
It is $70 bucks and will easily last 5 years.

TrueFire also makes good releases for the money especialy. Bulldog or the Hurricane are great affordable choices.

Ditto, climbing up, I keep it tucked in so it doesn't clank on the metal rungs..

Can't really go wrong with either a Scott or Carter release IMO
