Vonotto is correct though and you will see a good difference in feel and performance. I just got a new release and I am reaching for the darn trigger. I cant adjust this one either and I am going to have to toss it into the someday bin. Just cant reach and be consistent

JMO but at 58# I would consider the Montec to be a less than perfect choice due to the fact that it does not cut as much as it plows through an object. Really.....this is just a fact that many people have witnessed with this head. It takes a good amount of K.E. to drive a Montec. Thats all I am going to say on this point other than the Montec is a very good head aside from this one observation. As to the release.... Everyone has their favorite and I can only suggest trying as many as you can because buying and trying can be disappointing and costly. I would suggest getting a wrist strap (non-Velcro if possible) that can adjust for length and trigger tension. Arrows? ..... terminator XP selects....60/75 at your draw length with the 125gr. heads These are a heavier shaft but they have a great spec and are very affordable If you cut the arrows down to 28" (if you can) and use 100 gr. then I would suggest the 45/60 (just thought I'd throw that in as food for thought ) www.keystonecountrystore.com/Archery_Equipment_-_Supplies/Arrows/Carbon_Express_Arrows/Carbon_Express_Terminator_XP_Select_Shafts/Page_1/ARSXP207__45/60.html

I am always looking forward to peoples hunts but yours is certainly going to stay in the back of my mind. Simply cant say enough about how far and how fast you have accomplished what you have.
