I’ve been using a release since 2007 because of arthritis and bone spurs in my hand and fingers.
I shoot with a magnetic flipper/plunger rest and get good accuracy and arrow flight.
I’ve killed two elk and a few whitetails using a release. You can’t snap shoot. Need to be slow/deliberate and pull through the shot not punching the trigger.
If you or anyone else needs help or advice send me a pm and I’ll give you my number. Be glad to help !
As soon as I saw the Title of this Thread I thought of Keith... he is not **'ing you ... he is the real deal with using a release while hunting with a Trad Bow... that might Ruffle some Feathers here and on the Almighty TradGang.com ...but the Results are in the Freezer!
I’ve shot one in the yard just goofing around. Didn’t feel right to me, kinda like putting chrome wheels on a wheel barrow. I did notice it will increase your string noise ten fold.
