A Hinge Release is NOT for everybody. It takes commitment to shoot one safely. The average bowhunter is better off sticking to a trigger release. No doubt a hinge will improve ones shooting for the most part.


Depends on how serious about your bowhunting you are. Every year new guys show up to shoot leagues, most shoot pretty good with a trigger for a week or two. Then expectations show up and so does target panic. A hinge is the best thing I have ever seen to get over that obstacle. One thing for sure, the first few shot with a trigger after shooting a hinge all winter are magic.
