## Description

desertcart.com : Tru-Fire Edge Buckle Foldback Adjustable Archery Compound Bow Release - Camo Wrist Strap with Foldback Design : Archery Release Aids : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Fantastic release - By far the best release I've used, & well worth the money! The trigger pull is crisp with little creep, and it's adjustable, although the pull was about right for me straight out of the box (light enough for accuracy but not so light that it felt unsafe). I think the Tru-Fire strap/buckle design is the most well thought-out on the market. Unlike velcro it's very quiet, and it's much quicker and easier to put on than most other designs, thanks to the wide end tab that prevents the strap from ever coming completely out of the buckle, and to the sliding clip (rather than a loop) that secures the loose end of the strap. There's never any fiddling around trying to thread the end of the strap through the buckle or securing loop. Also, the foldback design of this particular release (not found on all Tru-Fire releases) is handy in lots of situations. The best feature of this release is the hook design of the string catch. It's much quicker to engage than any caliper release, and can be done entirely by feel while your eyes remain on the target. WAY faster to engage (especially in a dark game blind in twilight, or while walking and suddenly coming upon a buck or bull), plus it's more secure than a caliper (there's no chance of accidentally not getting it fully closed over the string loop, as with some caliper designs) and faster to disengage as well - which is especially nice when hunting on foot in rough country. You'll see in the pictures that the trigger is angled back a bit rather than sticking out 90 degrees from the body. Ergonomically, this just makes sense. With bow drawn, your index finger isn't parallel to the body of the release, is it? Of course not, since it crosses over the release at an angle - so why are 95% of the releases out there designed as if your finger should pull straight back along the body of the release? It may not matter much, but this release gets it right! That may be one reason I shoot a little better with this release than with others. Some people will tell you that a caliper release is more accurate than a hook release, because a caliper grabs the string evenly on both sides, so it won't push it to one side during the release. That seems intuitively correct to most people, and widespread belief in this theory probably explains why caliper releases (unfortunately) dominate the market. However, this release proves that theory wrong! Here are several reasons why calipers are NOT more accurate than a good hook release: 1)The design of this release is such that the hook rotates out of the way of the string loop with little to no sideways force on the string loop upon release. This can be seen by drawing the string back lightly (1/2" or so, with no arrow nocked) and looking closely as the trigger is pulled. The loop pulls out straight forward, with almost no sideways motion; the string/nock point itself has no sideways motion at all, at least none that I can see. 2)Even if the hook *did* push the string loop to one side (which it doesn't), if it did so *consistently* it wouldn't affect repeatability at all, unless it causesd the arrow to fishtail side-to-side. If it did cause the arrow to fishtail, that could be detected by a paper test, and could be corrected by adjustment of the arrow rest. 3)In any case, this release certainly does NOT cause the arrow to fishtail; with my bow set up correctly, paper testing shows my arrows flying straight as a bullet, with no detectable difference between this release and a caliper release. 4)Most importantly, the results speak for themselves. I generally shoot tighter groups with this release than with my three other releases (all caliper releases), and using this release doesn't change point of impact compared to the caliper releases. On good days, I've shot sub 3-inch five-shot groups with this release at 60 yards (using a Hoyt Faktor bow), which is better than I ever expected to be able to shoot any bow. Don't waste your money on cheaper releases, and DON'T make the mistake of thinking that caliper releases are (even theoretically) more accurate. Try it, and you'll be glad you got this one.
Review: Great relesse - Great release, this is my second one. Love it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great relesse
*by D***P on September 12, 2025*

Great release, this is my second one. Love it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great beginner release.
*by K***E on March 16, 2016*

I bought two of these for my daughters for Christmas. They both got bows, and I since I spent a lot of money on the bows, I figured I wouldn't overdo it on the releases until we figured out what worked for them. I would say that you get exactly what you're expecting out of a release in this price range. It fits my youngest daughter perfectly, (10 years old, 4'9", big hands for her age). It did not fit my oldest daughter very well, (14 years old, 5'8" big hands for a woman). It did however do the trick and get her to the point where we knew exactly what to get her for her next release, so it absolutely served it's purpose and was a good purchase. The upsides: Inexpensive, durable, gets the job done, fits young children well. The downsides: Does not self close the calipers, meaning you have to manually push the calipers closed. Velcro strap close. I consider this a good purchase. My youngest has tried her sisters more expensive release and still prefers this one, and it fits her well. My only real complaint is the self closing. We have had 2-3 instances of an arrow getting launched mid draw because my daughter didn't get a full close on the D-loop. I would buy this again if I had to do it over.
