I shoot a Carter RX3 trigger and played around with a Carter hinge. Did not like the hinge because you will have to be rock solid in the nerve department when the big one is close and to me the hinge makes more sound coming off the string than the trigger. May be just me but if you do make sure you use a string a lot before trying to shoot your bow and be in a real open area with no one close.

Looks like all I need to do now is go to the pro shop and try some out. Thanks for all the feedback. I will post my results as soon as I make it to the range.

I believe that you are gonna find that a hinge goes off quickly on down hill shots for ya and will make you work a little harder on uphill shots to get it to go off disrupting your shot timing.That being said I love a hinge but only for thumping foam.I hunt with a thumb release settting my trigger up to where it drives into the base of my thumb as i pull.Impact points are identical to my hinge but i can help it when i need to when i am hunting or it is windy or whatever.Just a suggestion.Good Luck and hang on to them teeth! LOL
