A bow string release for engaging and releasing a bow string, comprising opposing jaws, a trigger, a housing, a jaw roller and a plurality of pins, the opposing jaws and the trigger coupled to the housing by pins, and the jaw roller coupled to the trigger and allowing the opposing jaws to an open condition when the trigger is in a pulled position. The bow string release of the present invention is adapted to minimize “loading up” of trigger force required to pull the trigger at full draw of a bow. Further the bow string release of the present invention is adapted to release the bow string at a trigger pull force of equal to or less than 9 ounces when an effective draw weight of the bow is equal to or more than 15 pounds.
