    Default Jim Fletcher Flathead

    Im looking to get some drawlength back and want to change release's. Im shooting a Scott Little Goose right now, but looking at the Fletcher Flathead. What do you guys think? Anybody out there shootin' it?

    I've shot the flathead a bunch this year. I really like it for a wrist strap release. I don't know how much dl you are going to gain by making the switch though. Maybe a 1/2" maybe nothing.

    Default flat head

    I have shot the flathead for a year or so and really like it.Not sure how much draw length you would get back.I think the trigger is better than the little goose.I shoot the release with back tension and cant feel the triger move on the flathead,the same cant be said for the little goose.

    Default Flathead release

    I've got one. I use it as a backup to my Carter twoshot. It's as clean and crisp a letgo as any I've ever used. As far as draw length - not much difference over the twoshot.

    It's a lot of bang for the buck. Very nice release.

    I think I'm going with this one since I cant seem to find another rope release manufacturer out there. BTW little bird told me that a bad arse bow designer shoots a Fletchamatic too I just like to grip rather rely on my wrist.
