I watched the video showing the Silverback/Nock 2 It and talking how they are designed to train with one and hunt with the other. The concern I have is on muscle memory. On the Silverback, the thumb is the safety and you push when you don't want to shoot. On the Nock 2 It, you press with your thumb when you want to shoot. I wouldn't trust myself to subconsciously know whether I had one or the other. Am I missing something or is this the case?
Once put into practice with each release you'll find it easier to separate between them when in use. Sticking to one release at a time in the beginning and building up a mental routine with each will allow you to switch between the two without any accidents.
A thumb release is great. I personally like to have newer archers use a tension activated release like the Carter Evolution, Carter Silverback from Nock On, or the Stan Element.
Well, I bought ths release 6 months ago, took it out of the package and fired it a few tiimes. It was so loud I deciided to put it away until hunting season was over and stay with my quiite and tried and true Carter Like Mike. Well season is over and I have been trying to shoot it for the last two days. The noise, to the shooter, is so bad and it is loud enough and inconsistent enough that I can't imagine using it to hunt. In your review, you only shoot it with loud background music. Would you be willing to try it with no background music and let us hear the results.
Hi Keith, thank you for watching the video! I actually no longer own the N2I so I wouldn't be able to perform another video. I did use this release in my video on thumb release execution methods that is on my channel here as well. That would be a better indicator of noise level. There is a good ting but being it's so close to our ears it magnifies the sound. I don't believe I'd be worried when hunting. This release has taken many animals by a lot of users.
To be completely honest i don't know if i can trust a tension release if i'm hunting. I have the just bcuz and trust that to not release unless I engage the trigger. And different strokes for different folks i guess but imo it's more stable... now I know there's advantages to the tension release that i can't get with the release i'm currently using.. If i were to get one it would be strictly for target practice...
Robert I got a quick question for you I have a Carter too simple that I absolutely love what I would like to get a hinge style release what do you recommend so I don't have to change my draw length
Hi William. I honestly do not know of a hinge that can match up. The Too Simple was built with a very small neck on the release and I've never seen a hinge release match up to that. As a long shot, if you wanted to change releases, the 1st Choice is a similar release, but with a standard length neck on it. Using that and getting a hinge would be an easier solution. A Truball HBC or HT would work together with them. The Scott hinges would work as well.
Would you say that it's a decent beginner release for someone wanting to learn form and good release posture (without gaining bad habits), or better to get something like the silverback/evolution to start and move on to a trigger?
No, sorry! They have to be purchased through nockontv.com He's out of stock on them currently, but you can put your email into a waiting list to be notified when they're in stock again.

Good review, thanks brother.
Sweet review!!
Thank you!
That look almost exactly like the new Carter Convertible release.
Because Carter makes them
Am new to archery and have a wrist release and was thinking bout switching and trying that style
A thumb release is great. I personally like to have newer archers use a tension activated release like the Carter Evolution, Carter Silverback from Nock On, or the Stan Element.

@@rcrchery Thanks ro your reply. I will post my video comparing the N2it sound to the Carter Like Mike, which I have been using for 2 years.
The Like Mike should be quieter. They N2I has a heavier cocking spring in them and that's why they're louder.

It's not a tension release..
Great review like the other one.
Thanks!
Does it come with the sticker?

Isn't it a 2 finger wise choice are is there a major difference
No there isn't. Wise choice is strictly a 3 finger... the nock 2 it is the 2 finger
Would you say that it's a decent beginner release for someone wanting to learn form and good release posture (without gaining bad habits), or better to get something like the silverback/evolution to start and move on to a trigger?
I would start out with the Silverback or Evolution for sure.
Thanks for the reply.
Would there be an advantage to getting both? Particularly if someone wanted to hunt with one?
Can this release be converted to left hand?
Yes, it can be. You can take off the trigger barrel off and flip it to the other side of the release and use it left handed.
@@rcrchery why do you prefer the two finger over the 3 or more fingers? Is there a benefit?
I feel I get less release torque and I can get my release arm in a better position.
Worth $200?
If you like thumb releases and think a two finger design will benefit you, then yes.
Where can I purchase these release???
Around 6:30 in the video I give the information on this.
Can I buy one of them off you
No, sorry! They have to be purchased through nockontv.com He's out of stock on them currently, but you can put your email into a waiting list to be notified when they're in stock again.
WTH is there a waiting list? Terrible
