Want to learn how to use a back tension release...the easy way? Try Zenith's... "Sure Fire Back Tension Release Training Kit" with Comfort or Comfort X-cel handles Zenith Archery Products has introduced a new product, designed to teach archers how to get started in shooting a back tension release. The Sure Fire Back Tension Release Kit was developed by us in response to the comment by archers repeatedly heard at shoots and trade shows; "I can't use a back tension release. I tried one once and I punched myself in the mouth."   "I never shot a back tension release until I picked up a Zenith kit. I've been shooting for about six months now, and I've had nothing but good luck. I learned to use it in my living room without shooting an arrow. Once I was ready to hit the range, I was completely confident. Others I've talked to have told me that they can't believe I haven't punched myself yet."-BW, Virginia "Just wanted to email to you to say how much I liked your No-Punch Kit (ordered it two months ago)...and have been shooting with a GREAT IMPROVEMENT!!! No more target panic. I had almost given up on archery because I had a bad case of target panic with a caliper release, it grew over the years...I had read about back tension releases and was afraid that I would not be able to shoot one. Your approach with the video...is the best approach, I will be telling my hunting buddies who have target panic but will not admit it, that your system is the BEST! Thanks again for keeping me in archery!!!"-Leroy Kimball, Jr., Hopkinton, NH Just wanted to drop a line and say that I'm pleased with your release training kit. First of all, the kit arrived at my door just a day and a half after I spoke with you which allowed me to get started right away. Thanks! I watched the video a couple of times before unpacking all the parts and had no trouble assembling and adjusting the cam with the instructions on the CD. It's necessary to really listen closely to all the information presented but I always consider that a given when doing something new anyway. If one does pay attention it's hard to imagine how any serious troubles can arise. I had the practice cam in for a couple of days and found that it was a great learning tool that can give the shooter some confidence that he's not going to send arrows all over the range. By paying attention to which fingers are applying pressure on the release both with the practice cam and then for real, I haven't had an errant arrow yet nor a rap in the mouth. It'll take me some time to get the back tension down but I have to say that my groups haven't suffered too badly. They're not quite as good as with my trigger release yet (which isn't saying much considering my skill level at this point) but I'm finding it easier to move the group around using the windage and elevation adjustments on my sight. In all, I think you have a great product and anyone who really wants to use a back tension release ought to be able to learn with you as their coach via the CD. Best regards, Dick Watson p.s. I'm pretty much a novice archer and shoot a Hoyt Powerhawk with a Cartel Max sight, QuikTune 3000 rest and a Cartel 28" carbon stabilizer. We think this kit will help overcome this problem for the beginner as well as the advanced archer. We're so certain of it that we're backing it up with a money back guarantee. If you are not satisfied with the results obtained by using the kit, Zenith will refund your full purchase price, minus shipping, no questions asked. The standard kit includes a 3 finger X-Cel handle in your choice of colors or an X-Cel+ handle (with the thumb peg) in black or sllver. To upgrade to a color in the X-Cel+ handle add $10. Any of our aluminum Comfort handles are available for $20 over the base price. The Flip-it head upgrade is $10. The handle is equipped with a wrist strap to eliminate the possibility of letting the release go during a shot. The CNC machined head includes two different cams. The full moon practice cam, which will not allow the bowstring to be released, has two practice modes. The first uses a .008" clicker notch, first introduced by Zenith several years ago. The clicker is used as a reference and allows the archer to use more than one finger when drawing the bow. Without the clicker, the initial rotation of the handle becomes critical, leading to pre-fires and sore index fingers. For those who don't want to use the clicker, the other practice notch has a smooth shooting edge. The full moon allows the archer to to use his bow to completely simulate a shot. Rather than the arrow being fired, the shot ends with a "click" from the release and the bow can then be let down safely. After developing a safe shot routine with the practice cam the archer can switch to the shooting cam provided with the kit. The shooting cam is now a reversable Hcam which has the .006 clicker on one side and is smooth on the other side. The .006 cam takes the place of the .008 cam, formerly shipped with the kit, to better work with a d-loop set-up. The feature of the kit which Zenith believes will allow all archers to learn to use a back tension release is the VHS video tape or CDROM which is included. The archer is taught how to assemble the release (which comes unassembled), the proper way to hold and cock it, how to hook it up to the bowstring and finally how to shoot it the proper way. The eleven minute video visually takes you through the learning process from A to Z and is the main reason Zenith is able to offer our no-risk money back guarantee. Th tape can be replaced in the kit by a CD-ROM which will run on your computer using Apple Quicktime 5 which is included on the disk. The latest version of Quicktime can also be downloaded free from the Internet. This works great for those in countries where VHS tape is not the standard. It's handy too, to be able to run the video from your hard drive. It makes it really easy to jump from one section to another and to stop the action.
