TruBall Assassin Scout
Canadian counter-tariff: +50% at checkout ($50.00 on this option).
Since September 8, 2026 the Government of Canada applies a counter-tariff on U.S.-origin archery equipment and other goods. We pay it at the border and show it as its own line in your cart instead of hiding it in the price. It follows the quantity you order, and it never applies to our tariff-free brands.
The T.R.U. Ball Assassin Scout is for archers who want a streamlined, hassle-free release that stays out of the way until it's needed. It's built on the award-winning Assassin caliper head and pairs it with a redesigned web strap and a two-slot connector, so you can dial the head in to suit a wide range of finger lengths. Pull the trigger and the jaws open; ease off and they close. That's the whole operation.
Features
- Fully-independent standard caliper jaws — the jaws close silently to load, then release the d-loop smoothly and evenly as they open, which minimises torque for a cleaner, more consistent shot. Every set of jaws is tested before packaging.
- Travel adjustment — a single adjustment screw sets exactly how far the trigger travels before activation, so you control the responsiveness.
- Two-slot web strap connection — durable nylon web with a locking web connector and a plastic keeper for a custom, stay-put fit. The flexible design keeps lateral torque off the string and tucks out of the way until you draw.
- Cinch connection with a black head.
- Made in the USA.
Choose your strap
- Black leather buckle strap — sturdy top-grain leather with premium metal hardware and 8 sizing holes for a repeatable, secure fit. Includes a built-in belt loop strap.
- Black Velcro® strap — infinitely adjustable and quick to snug down, a good pick for growing archers or anyone who wants a custom fit that holds shot after shot.
Both strap styles feature comfortable neoprene padding, and both are offered in Junior (JR), Large (L) and X-Large (XL).

T.R.U. Ball sizes these straps by approximate distance around the wrist:

Built-to-order gear is final sale. Custom arrows and anything else built to your spec cannot be resold, so we cannot take those back.
