I shoot the uv hinge2 for target and switch to the uv button for hunting. I had my bow tuned for the hinge and when I got the button, I noticed my impact was to the left. Shot through paper and had an inch and a half tear. I’ve talked with other people shooting the same releases at Spokane valley archery. They had the same problem.
Make sure your hands shape and position are exactly the same between the 2 hinges. I think it was archery academy who has an awsome video on how to shoot both UV hinges and make them impact the same!
great honesty in the video! i usually start off shooting the button better, but then start anticipating the shot and start to drop. the hinge i am more consistent with, so I usually train with the hinge and hunt with my button.
Ultra view is becoming the UA-camr release of choice. Pretty soon there will be a combo starter pack on everyone’s channel. It’ll be a Hamskea rest, ultraview release and a pair of Crispi boots.
Perhaps it speaks even more strongly in favor of the Hinge that even on a day you consider bad that it performs better than other options. There's absolutely nothing to say that when you're out hunting that it will be your best day so you need what advantages you can get.
I'm shooting back and forth between a Nock2It thumb and 2Smooth hinge. I tend to find my groups are a little better with the hinge but my best shots (or at least better shots as I'm not that great!) are with the thumb. There's not too much inconsistency in impact point between the two but I do notice as I start to tire the shots from my thumb release drop a bit. I think that's because the hinge forces me to keep tension as I expand through the shot whereas I can slack off a little with the thumb release and still get a shot off. This results in me pushing less into heel of the grip causing my shot to drop off slightly. It's a bit hard to tell conclusively given different camera angles but I wonder whether you were doing the same? In that final end things turned around and you looked like you were pushing into the grip a bit stonger with the last 3 thumb release shots and the arrows moved back up to the center again.
Same problem I have, I’m not as accurate going back and forth like that. I do shoot the hinge better. My button tends to group an 1” or 2” lower then the hinge. Everyday all day.
It’s interesting that this test shows how on any given day things can go south. Is it in your mind because you ARE experimenting and maybe “ trying too hard” instead of a normal relaxed mindset? We’ve seen you have better results many times at 50. I use a hinge and button when getting in reps on the bale quite frequently because the hinge tends to slow me down a couple of seconds before it fires. Which really helps when using the button. Cool idea in making this video. Have to do it again and compare results of the different days.
You and me both. I shot the hinge religiously last year and had my bow sighted in for it until hunting season. Every thumb button release I used was hitting left so I moved it back and my hinge is sitting in a box with old releases at the moment lol
I have both and shoot both. My hinge will impact right but i think it has to do with my hand position. Its easier to get flatter to my jaw with the button than the hinge for some reason
I own multiple H2's and a Button...I can NOT get the same POI when shooting them side by side. I am left handed and my Button ALWAYS shoots right compared to my H2's and ALL my other hinges.
I have been shooting the uv hinge a ton lately but i just ordered the stan onnex c. It makes me curious how different my impacts will be after watching this video.
False Dichotomy. Get a Stan OnneX Resistance, shoot it as a 'Reverse Hinge' Firing Engine. 50 Yards ?? Some (MOST !!) would kill for the groups you were Poo Pooing. John ps. At least you got the Right Bow. 😉
I dont think the hinge won at all Jeff. Your groups were way better with the button. Score doesnt really matter right? In the end its all about dead critters
Which release are you shooting?

UV button
Both 👍
UV Button. I've never tried a hinge, maybe after hunting season I'll try one.
Stan onnex thumb
Love the honesty man. We are only human. Somedays we shoot great, some days we just shoot lol. Thank you for the content!
Make sure your hands shape and position are exactly the same between the 2 hinges. I think it was archery academy who has an awsome video on how to shoot both UV hinges and make them impact the same!
This is a content that I enjoy seeing. Realistic scenarios that are real!
Shooting raw is the best love it
Great reps, it’s all about putting in the time and energy and repetition. Thanks for sharing your honesty.
Cool video. I am shooting the stan shootoff TL thumb button release it is crisp and clean. I love it. Very adjustable .
great honesty in the video! i usually start off shooting the button better, but then start anticipating the shot and start to drop. the hinge i am more consistent with, so I usually train with the hinge and hunt with my button.
I love your honesty! Good shooting
Shoot both through paper. I bought the button after the hinge and it completely changed my tune.

Should I do the same video with the Stan Onnex releases. I have them too.
@@jeffcordero_
Yea, I think so. Lot of people would probably like to see it. Then maybe a vid between the UV and the Stan.
@@jeffcordero_yes
Should do a rematch when you get the time. Would be interesting to see how they do when you’re having a better shooting day.
I will say the hinge requires more practice time. Just a little bit more.
I agree. There is a comfort level you need to get to with how the release functions to shoot it well
Seems that the hinge shoots right and the button left maybe?

Your follw threw on the button is differant than the hing.

Could have been some inconsistency in my part for sure.
@@jeffcordero_ To be fair if I could shoot as good as your bad day I'd be happy 🤣
next time use your regular release as well with 2 arrows each for 6 arrows per round

Sometimes when you put that colored target face up there, it can really play games with your head. That’s for sure
Well that's funny because i have the same 2 releases and I shoot my hinge a tad right also

thats what i fight with as well

You know what one you shoot better.
how far is the target?
How far you shooting?
50

If you hunt get strap release, those releases are for 3D target.
I hunt with a thumb button no problem. I do have paracord attached to it that goes around my wrist to. Not a fan of index releases
Question open hook or single caliper?
I dont think the hinge won at all Jeff. Your groups were way better with the button. Score doesnt really matter right? In the end its all about dead critters
Agreed
There's got be a reason why target archers primarily use hinges
There is.
Keep punching
You ever tried the hbc flex ?
I haven’t.
@@jeffcordero_ I’m really interested in a hinge the ultra view has my attention so does the hbc choice’s right lol
I don’t care where you’re hitting. I care more about your groups
Most realistic video tho. I love it. We’re not always gonna shoot dimessss babyyyy
What is the white ring around your Ultraview sight? @jeffcordero_
