Hey Ric, one other thing about that Stan hinge release...
I shot a whole lot worse Monday evening than I have been shooting at the house... Par for the course. I used the Stan at the shoot, having never had an issue with early release. I wound up being shoved into the last spot on the line, smacked up against the wall, poor lighting, and a 4x6 in my back. I didn't want to be a whiner or make excuse before I launched my first arrow, so I ran with it. I could not fully get into my comfortable shooting position and engage my back muscles. I had one get away from me and yelled some kind of obscenity when it went off.... lol Scared the crap out of me and I had no idea where the arrow landed. I didn't even think it hit the 4x4 backstop! I was pleasantly surprised that the arrow did find my 4x4, and even hit one of the target faces in the 8 ring...lol Pure luck that I didn't kill someone.
