Canadian counter-tariff: +50% at checkout ($35.00 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 Bandit is a wrist-strap hunting release built around simplicity: fully-independent caliper jaws you open with the trigger and close by letting up, a rope connection you can fine-tune in seconds, and weather-resistant flexible tubing over the whole connection. Pick your head colour and the strap that suits how you hunt, and it is ready for the shot when it matters.

Features

Fully-independent standard caliper jaws — pull the trigger to open, let up to close. The jaws close silently to load and release the d-loop smoothly and evenly as they open, which minimises torque for a cleaner, more consistent shot. Each set of jaws is tested before packaging.
Flex Grip connection — flexible rubber tubing links the head to the strap, adding durability and weather resistance in rough conditions.
Red Rope Connector — slide the red anchor fitting, adjust the rope and lock it back in place to set your draw length on the fly. The flexible rope reduces string torque and lets you position your anchor point anywhere along the rope.
Travel adjustment — a single adjustment screw sets exactly how far the trigger travels before activation.
Aluminum wrist strap T-Connection — the solid aluminum T-connector houses the rope connector and hinges, so you can fold the release into your sleeve when it is not in use and redeploy it quickly.

Colours and straps

Head colours: Black or Tactical Bowhunting Series Green anodized.
Camo Velcro strap: infinitely adjustable with the reliable hold of Velcro — a good fit for growing archers or anyone who wants a snug, custom fit that stays put shot after shot.
Black leather buckle strap: sturdy top-grain leather with premium metal hardware and 8 sizing holes for a repeatable, secure fit, plus a built-in belt loop strap.
Both strap styles use comfortable neoprene padding.

Fit

Offered in Junior (JR), Large (L) and X-Large (XL); sizing relates to the approximate distance around the wrist.
Flex Grip connection.
Suits any compound bow set up with a d-loop.

Colours may vary from the photos.

Free pickup at either store. Choose pickup at checkout and we will have it ready, usually within 24 hours.

If we got it wrong, we make it right. If your order turns up damaged, faulty, or it simply is not what you ordered, we cover the return shipping and refund you in full. Send us a photo and we will sort it out — you should not be out a cent for our mistake.

Changed your mind? That is fine too. Send it back and we refund the full price of the product. Return shipping is on you in that case, and the gear has to come back to us complete and in sellable condition — unused, undamaged, with the packaging, parts and paperwork it arrived with. Once it lands and checks out, the full product price goes back on your card. Shipping is the only thing you are out.

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.

Get in touch before you ship anything so we can point you at the right store and keep an eye out for it.
