TruBall Bone Collector Bandit
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 Bone Collector Bandit is one of T.R.U. Ball's top-selling wrist strap releases, now carrying the official Bone Collector seal after being chosen by the Bone Collector team. It is a simple, closed-caliper hunting release built for quick, reliable performance when every second counts — pull the trigger to open the jaws, let up to close them, and get back to the hunt.
Features
- Fully-independent standard caliper jaws — the jaws close silently to load and open evenly so the D-loop releases smoothly, minimizing torque for a cleaner, more consistent shot. Each set of jaws is tested before packaging.
- Flex Grip connection — flexible rubber tubing joins the head to the strap, adding durability and weather resistance for tough hunts and unpredictable conditions.
- Bone Collector green rope connector — tool-free adjustment: slide the green anchor fitting, reposition the rope and lock it back in place. The flexible rope reduces torque on the bowstring and lets you tune your anchor point anywhere along the rope's length.
- Travel adjustment — a single screw sets exactly how far the trigger travels before activation, giving you full control over trigger response.
- Wrist strap T-connection — a solid aluminum T-connector links the strap to the release and houses the rope connector. The hinged design folds away so you can tuck the release into your sleeve, then redeploy it quickly for the shot.
Strap styles
- Black Leather Buckle strap — sturdy top-grain leather with premium metal hardware and 8 sizing holes for a repeatable, secure fit. Features a built-in belt loop strap.
- Black Velcro strap — infinite adjustability with the reliable hold of Velcro, ideal for growing archers or anyone who wants a custom, snug fit that stays put shot after shot.
- Both strap styles use comfortable neoprene padding.
Sizing
Both strap styles are offered in Junior (JR), Large (L) and X-Large (XL). T.R.U. Ball sizing relates to the approximate distance around the wrist:
