  1. Yes!!! Thank you thank you thank you! You are awesome lol. I bought it.
  2. Ok I went to Bass Pro Shop this weekend on our vacation to Mobile, AL. I tried on the Winn Release, and the left handed medium was too big. I tried on the small right handed, and it fits very well. The didn't have a small in the left handed release, or a left handed bow I could draw on- but I got my husband to hold onto the end and pull real hard, and there is no stretching at my wrist at all! It's perfect! But... I looked on Bass Pro, Cabela's, Gander Mountain- and non of them offer a small left handed release. The medium just doesn't get tight enough... I don't know what I'm going to do now...
  3. Thanks to both of you on the previous posts for the advice. We do shoot alot in one sitting- I just really enjoy it and hate to stop lol. But I will try the sets/breaks and see if that helps. I already have stressed wrist from working in a automotive body shop for years. That im sure is part of my problem. I really do appreciate everyone taking the time to share their knowledge with me though- and I have already started taking into consideration a lot of what i have learned off of here.
  4. Thanks for that info that helps alot!
  5. I live in South Mississippi, ours is October 15th. We might head to North MS and try to catch some earlier hunting. I can't wait!!!
  6. I need opinions since this is on the subject of Blazers... Do you think the Blazers or the Quick Spins are better? Or maybe which would be better for my setup? I am only shooting about 42# right now, so I need as much help with speed and travel as I can get until I can get more strength built up to draw more weight.

    Hi!!! Welcome! You will enjoy it here. I'm fairly new myself, and I love it.
  8. I looked at the Scott Silverhorn- it's close to the design of mine. I am using a Trufire Patriot. I think my main problem with these is that I am putting the release on between the wrist bone and the hand, so when I pull it's actually stretching all that out. When I put it behind my wrist bone it's not as bad. I just got to get it to stay back there. The wrap with the release on top of it helps a lot, but i am still getting twinges of pain the day after.
  9. Aw man it's so nice! Maybe next year.... maybe...
  10. Well it's supposed to be made specifically for women right? It seems like it would be really comfortable. I forgot to look at whether they offered left hand or not...
  11. Yep Im definately getting one! At least I have the quick fix wrap for now so I can still shoot until my new one gets here.
  12. Thanks- I am really thinking this is going to be the best option for me right now. I am gonna go get one asap and try it. Today we wrapped my wrist really tight in an elastic velcro wrap and put my release over that. It was akward to draw at first, but we shot for about an hour and so far the wrist is ok...
  13. My brother runs the archery department at our local pro shop and adjusted my draw length. It's just enough to where I can straighten my arm all the way out or have my elbow slightly bent and is very comfortable. Does that sounds right?
  14. Here's mine: "I like Cowboy Boots and Camo Pants"...
  15. Maybe by next year the price will have dropped just a little. I still can't say that I won't buy one. I really like it a lot.
