I’ve had the pleasure of using a pile of index style releases. Some are great and some I wouldn’t care to try again. And over the last few years I’ve really come up with a certain criteria for myself on what makes a good index style release for me and my style of hunting. Usually that recipe costs a pretty penny. I just recently found a release that shatters that standard. The Stan SoleX is everything I need in an index style release aid, but with a much more affordable price tag.

Stan SoleX – The Best $100 Index Style Release on the Market

If you’ve used this release, I’d love to know what you think. I’m currently carrying this SoleX in my backpack as a backup release. I still prefer the Carter Like Mike II, simply because it feels more beefy than the Stan does. The Stan is every bit of functional though, and I have the same impact points with both releases. My brother uses this SoleX as his main release and he loves it. All in all, this is a fantastic index style release aid for anyone looking to get a full hook around their trigger and a surprise shot. From beginner to vet, the SoleX is a winner in my book.
