So thanks to a guy I don’t know here are a few ideas for carrying your release. I sent a guy both my GOAT and Essux releases and he created the holsters.

These are made so well. There is no way for it to fall out even without the strap.

The belt clip is the most simple option. Very secure. I asked for an way to attach one to my bow. (I know, another thing strapped to our already heavy bows but it works)

He fabricated a bracket to attach this to my Triax using the rear stabilizer mount. (See pics)

So I took this a step further and used the lower Mathews quiver mounting location. I created a tiny bracket which attaches to the shorter mount we use with the claw for our quivers and attached holster. It’s rock solid and the arrows in quiver clear it just fine.

Just another option I thought I’d share

That is a great idea. Anything that keeps a release attached to a bow is a good idea in my book. I'm quite forgetful sometimes.

It's an elastic sleeve made by Readyman for a RATS TQ. Slipped it over the belt buckle and strap. Voila! Holds a Hot Shot super-securely.

damnit! Something ELSE for me to spend money on. I half expected it to be sold by Dan0. Sigh. How much and where can I buy one?
