One finger release I have used with great success was the Spot Hogg Keaton. It is a very versatile release and you can shoot it several different ways depending on your personal preference.

I shoot a couple of 4 finger Carter Chocolate Addictions, solid release and a great “hunting” one at that. Zero complaints, other than if I had to do it all over again I’d get a 3 finger. It’s no big deal I just drop my pinky and shoot off three anyway. I didn’t realize I liked shooting off a 3 finger until I had shot a 4 for several years but you live and learn.

This is the thing about shooting a hand held release aid. A lot, I mean a lot of guys initially make the switch and don’t fully commit to learning to shoot a hand held. It’s a big change, some folks transition faster than others but even if you are struggling you have to stay with it. Switching to a hand held is something that should be done when you have ample time to learn the new shot execution. I wouldn’t recommend trying to do it right before season or where the archer would be under any undue pressure or deadline.
I love it, I’ve said on here multiple times; and I’ll say it again, it’s one of the most positive changes I’ve made to my archery game. I feel like I have better contact with the bow, a more consistent anchor, hold the weight through the draw cycle better and far more consistent than I ever was with an index release. Shooting a hand held just helps me get me body in the position it really wants to be in at full draw. Of course, it’s not for everybody and if it’s not for you then it’s not for you. That being said you have to give it a fair chance to fully evaluate if it’s a fit or not. I know a lot of folks that switch over but a lot less that switch back.
