Anyone using this release? Thoughts? Thinking on going to a thumb release. I have tried the TruBall BossX and it was ok, but no others. Nothing really around locally to try. So I'm going to have to go untested. Looking on opinions of the simple 1. If not I'll just go carter Chocolate Ad.

I bought one at the ATA show this year. I love it so far...

 

[MOA]

Good to hear. Any thing to compair it to?

I just switched from a chocolate addiction to the simple 1. CA always felt a little big in my hand, makes the simple 1 feel small. Simple 1 is much quieter. I'll probably be selling the CA soon. I'm really starting to get accustomed to and liking the S1.

I think its alot like my SpotHogg FND...

I absolutely love mine. Its the most adjustable release I have ran into, its smooth, and its shorter head makes it a dream to adjust the anchor to exactly where I want it. I would like to get another for a backup.

 

[MGB]

I've shot one for a few weeks now. I love the short head since I have a relatively short D.L. I love that I can adjust the travel to essentially ZERO. The shape fits my hand well. All-in-all, I'm satisfied and it will likely be my primary hunting release and back-up target release for years to come. I like it better than my former Target 4. However, for $180, you'd better be blown away!

I have a plain 1 and love it better than any other release I have tried

Ok, does the little tab hit your palm on draw or does it push in farther than it looks in pics?

 

[MOA]

Well I got to shoot a TrueBall Diamond and dont really like it. I am thinking Chappy Boss, Boss X, HotShot Tempest, or Carter. I really liked the carter 2 shot, but want to try thumb release.

Forgot to mention I have Xtra large hands. Any of these fit larger hand?

If you have Xlarge hands IMO you would be happy with a 3/4 finger, which ever finger configuration you like, Carter Chocolate Addiction, or Chocolate Light over the Simple One.

 

[joeprec]

If you have large hands you will love the Chocolate Addiction. Its about the only Carter release that doesnt feel small to me and I don't even have large hands.

 

[MOA]

I like 4 finger. Simple one is a 3 finger. The boss x and diamond are both a little small.

Hated it and all I have had is carters. On the maurin trainer I got handups every other shot as the hook didnt retract all the way. Loved the feel of the release, short throat, but I just couldnt get to use it in practice. So if you want to practice using a trainer with your shooting release - beware.

Whats a trainer? I am talking thumb button release. Not backtension. Or am I confused?

Does the jaw jaw close when you press the button to cock it?

Does the jaw jaw close when you press the button to cock it?

Yes, the Simple one is a 3 finger release, and the Plain One is the 4 finger, and both models close the jaw when you cock the release.
