Turkeygirl Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 Ok, not sure if I asked here or not, but on my current bow I have an Ultra-Nok XL and use a Trophy Hunter Release. I wouldl ike to upgrade to a new release and I like the specs. of the Tru-Fire Hurricane Extreme web release. Will this release work well on the type of nock I'm using? Basspro has this release for $35 so I'm trying to stay around that price range or lower. Any opinions or suggestions on other releases? I like the releases that close automatically when you let go of the trigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckee Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 Re: Release question The Tru-Fire Hurricane Extreme should work well with the Ultra-Nok XL. The only thing you need to watch out for, is that the "reach" (not sure if that's the right term) on the Tru-Fire Hurricane Extreme is not too long for you.

Guest grubbworm Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 Re: Release question I was using the Ultra-Nok XL and the Trophy Hunter Release on my old bow but when I went down and bought my XT they told me down there man you dont need that Ultra-Nok XL on yer string and that the release I was using I needed to get rif of apparently they dont like ethier of those items so i bought the XT and they sold me a Scott little goose release that is adjustable in length to 3 different lenghts and they siad no need for a that Ultra-Nok XL and I have to say I like it very much Scott release is a great release but downfall is it was $58 but im very glad I am very glad I bought it.

Turkeygirl Posted August 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 Re: Release question Buckee...is there any way to tell if a release is too big or not or you don't know unless you try it? Basspro is theo nly place I've found to have that release, it does have some adjustment but that is my only concern- if the reach would be too long...hmmmm....

[/ QUOTE ] Just take the one you ussually use, with you, and see how it measures up to the new one, as to how it fits in your hand. Most of them are adjustable, to a certain extent, but some aren't. If it's too long, and not adjustable, you will have to change your anchor point to come to full draw, and you don't want to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted August 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 Re: Release question That's the only problem, no one has the release I want, gotta order it from Basspro. I think I'm going to like it though. I asked on another forum and a lady said the strap adjusts quite a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 Re: Release question Wal mart used to sell tru fire releases TG, that is where both of my x caliper releaes came from. Pretty sure they still do sell them. Might check and see if they have what you are looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted August 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 Re: Release question Yeah, I checked Walmart last night. They had like 2 TruFire releases, not the one I wanted, but I tried on an x-caliper pro which felt nice so I think the hurricane will be good:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
