A release needs to work EVERY time. If you can't get it to work properly throw it out and get a new one.

| What do you mean. The jaws stick closed sometimes when you hit the trigger??? Is it a caliper style trigger release or something else? | ||

It may help if you tell us what kind of release. __________________ "To be unarmed and therefore helpless in the face of evil is irresponsible and in fact complicit to said evil.

Mine has an adjustment for trigger pressure...perhaps yours does too and it is too tight.
I had the opposite problem when I first shooting a release. The trigger was adjusted too sensitive resulting in a few arrows launched into the stratosphere. __________________ Gun control is being able to hit your target

What exactly isn't it doing? When you say, "when you hit the trigger it doesn't work", does that meant the jaws don't open or the bar doesn't flip. __________________ The bowman, to be successful as a hunter, must learn to perfection the habits of his game.

That happened to mine... put a little oil on it. If that doesn't work throw it away. __________________ The bowman, to be successful as a hunter, must learn to perfection the habits of his game.

Call the mfgr and send it back.
I've used several Tru Balls for years and never had a single problem. |

does it work when you don't have the load of the string on the release? __________________ The bowman, to be successful as a hunter, must learn to perfection the habits of his game.
