5 stars for the price
This works as well as other releases I’ve tried that cost more than double the price. This item works pretty well for the cost. I went to an archery store to try other releases. The fancy ones allow you to adjust the tension in the trigger and allow adjustability with the length. This one you’d have to cut down the shaft then replace the tube to shorten it. I have pretty small hands and it was difficult to get my finger on it so i had to fab a way to shorten it. For most people this will be fine. It has a hair trigger but it’s something you get used to and I like how crisp it is when you release it. Make sure your fingers are behind the trigger when drawing the bow and don’t put a finger on the trigger until ready to fire. the strap has two velcro sections you put on. One to place on the wirst, another to tighten.

Great Release for The Price
I have a TruFire release as well as two of these Allen Company releases. For the price, the Allen release is a really good buy and works really well. The trigger is fairly light so you have to be aware of this when you draw your bow. If you always put your trigger finger behind the trigger (and press on it) as you draw back, you’ll never have a misfire.The strap isn’t as nice as the TruFire and this is why I gave it 4 stars. The strap requires a bit more tweaking to get it on your wrist properly as it has two Velcro straps and you have to put both on to secure the wrist band. The first Velcro strap gets the release onto your wrist allowing you to adjust the fit and how tight you want it around your wrist – it’s two pieces instead on one continuous strap. Then the second strap goes around this strap and slides through a buckle to ensure the release is securely fastened to your wrist. The TruFire is one single continuous strap with one Velcro connection. It’s much faster to get on and off your wrist.The Allen release only has one length. There is no length adjustment so if you have small hands, this may not be a good release for you. The Allen release does have a swiveling head so it can rotate freely when clipped onto your bow string. This is a nice touch.I have used the release three times now and it’s worked flawlessly. For the money, this is a pretty good release.

Give it a go
I recently took up archery, and the tip of my middle finger started going numb for days at a time. It was unpleasant. I dawned work gloves, but had the same result. Finally I decided that if I wanted to stick with it, I needed a triggering mechanism, and decided on this caliper. It came in the mail yesterday and at first my aim was thrown off wildly, and knocking the arrows took quite a bit of time. However, within probably 20 minutes, my aim had improved to better than it was prior to using the caliper and I got back up to speed with the knocking. The only thing that I have against the device is that sometimes I feel the trigger is a little too sensitive. It has misfired, so to speak, at least 5 times because I brush against the trigger. I hope that too will resolve itself in time as I become more used to using it.

Old Archer with new toys
I used to shoot compound bows about 20 years ago and just recently got back to owning one over the holidays. I was a bit skeptical about the trigger releases but decided to try it anyway. I went with the Allen based on reviews and price.I am extremely surprised at how easy it was to transition to the trigger from a traditional draw. The trigger is very light, but you can prevent misfires by using good shooting habits and practice.I am more than pleased with the results and how much easier it makes shooting. My bow is set at 65# draw and this is working flawlessly so far. The design is extremely comfortable and easy to place on your wrist. The draw is very comfortable and the release is just flawless.I find this trigger to be an extremely good value at price and quality.

Great for the cost
This is a pretty good release for the price. I use this primarily as a back up but it’s a good release. It is sensitive. Which is EXACTLY what you want. You do not want a stiff trigger on a release. And even though It’s sensitive it is secure.The only issue I have with this release is the non adjustable post. I wish thee was a way to make the post shorter. But it’s easy to make it work. I also prefer a buckle but for like $15 shipped. Can’t be picky!I recommend this release

Got what I paid for… which wasn’t much.
This isn’t the worst t-strap I’ve seen or used, but it’s far from worthy of anything more than basic target practice for the novice archer. The clasp on the bowstring is easily operated, although a bit touchy once set! Glad I got it, but I wouldn’t buy a second one. If you are planning on shooting a lot, I’d highly recommend a higher quality strap or other system altogether. Several other shooters I recently spoke with all recommended this style instead:[…]

Works awesome
I was amazed I could get such a great caliper for so cheap. What a fabulous deal! Works just like it should. I’ve only had it a few weeks but so far, so good.Update #1: The trigger is very sensitive, but I have NEVER had a misfire in the months that I’ve had it. Also, so long as the caliper is worn properly, there is no danger of the velcro failing or anything like that. Make sure you put it on properly, taking the velcro strap through the loop and securing it, and you will have no problem.My only complaint is that this item is not the most comfortable to wear, and it takes up a lot of space with its big metal bar. But honestly, how well it performs in every other category overcomes that little complaint.

New to archery and found this release to work very well. I have larger wrists and hands and this fit well. Does not misfire like some say but I’m careful when I pull and keep a little pressure on the trigger to prevent misfire. Release is smooth and looks to be good quality for the price. Some will say they need a better and more expensive one so let them go buy it.
