I'm shooting a wrist release now. Have been thinking about switching to a t-handle. Do any of yall shoot a t-handle, if so why do you like it? Thanks.

I used one back in the day for target shooting and loved it. Tried it one time for hunting and will never do that again. With my gloves on it slipped out of my hand while drawing on a deer.

Your draw strength will be reduced. I loved using one on my 60 lb destroyer. Most accurate I've ever been. However with the obnoxious draw of the omen the wrist was the only option. I did like it for hunting as I left it attached to my d loop so it was ready to go and didn't have the wrist release banging around.

I shoot a Carter Big Kid (now the Target 4) and I don't see me ever going back to a wrist release. I don't wear a glove on my release hand, so that was never an issue for me. I also don't notice any reduction in pulling strength, but that's just my experience. (my bow is extremely smooth, not radical at all) http://www.carterenterprises.com/releases/thumb-trigger/target-4
