Hi , just got a new 750 , have bbf set up on 7100 , love it , on 7100 when I focus using back button I can let go recompose and take the shot usually in single point , al good .
on the 750 same set up but take finger off button recompose it won't fire , but will in af-c , I've looked through the web and this has come up with other users with no one giving a solution , no big deal just leave it on af-c , just wondered if any of the users on here have a similar issue .

Thanks for the update. Its sounds like the d750 behaves just like the d7200, including the holding of the bb in af-s-fp and recomposing, just tried it. Interesting. I'm not thinking of any good use off-hand for af-s w/bbf, but interesting that Nikon has these subtle tweaks between similar models.
It took me a year to get used to bbf. Lots of back and forth and some missed shots in my confusion. Then it all clicked and I began finding great use for it in macro and wildlife. I leave it always at af-c, at most I change from single point to d9 or more for a bird in flight. I keep a U setting with shutter button focus in case I need to hand the camera to someone for a shot.

I have a D750 and always use BBF. I set to AF-C ALL the time. When using CL on my mode dial, I keep the BB pressed in ALL the time to ensure I get some of my shots in focus. This is useful when shooting birds at several feet away.
