I am in no way qualified to do something like this, but I will anyways. I’m trying to transition from a silverback to a thumb release, and came across this one. I couldn’t find many reviews or much info on it so I went and bought one. I’ll do a little review, maybe someone else is curious.
I wanted travel and tension adjustments, and some customization to it. I didn’t go to the Nock 2 It because I didn’t think I’d be a fan of the two finger for a thumb. And if I would’ve been right about that, I would’ve still been looking for a release. I also know I just described a Stan release, but I didn’t feel like spending that much money, and also noticed that many of their releases couldn’t be left to hang on a d-loop for hunting purposes. I heard a lot of good things about B3 as a brand, but had tried the normal “Exit” release and wasn’t impressed, mainly due to the trigger travel that I would’ve had to deal with.
First impressions, I like it a lot. I would say my hands are on the larger size, but it feels comfortable to me. Out of the box there was a little travel, but easily fixed that and it’s very crisp. I turned up the tension a little as well to start out. There’s no “cocking” this release, you only have to close the hook on your d- loop. I like that aspect of it I think, although right now it takes me a second to hook it on. I feel like after I shoot it a while it’ll be second nature. I’ll attach a picture of it in my hand for a size reference.
Like I said, maybe this will benefit someone, maybe not. I’m gonna shoot it a while and see what I think. If anyone has any other questions or anything, just let me know.
