I agree with the above. There are quite a few pro archers that use a caliper release. It's all about "how" you shoot it. If you Shoot it like a rifle trigger, you will have issues with target panic. If you "pull through" the release using back tension you will have better success.
For hunting, sometime you MUST have a shot get off at a specific point...a caliper release IMHO, is the best for hunting applications. Also with it attached to your wrist it won't fall out of your pocket and you are least likely to lose it.
Just my opinion.
