If you've got tons of money to blow on target archery I can see a $350 release not being a big deal. I don't think I would ever bring that with me in the woods though. I'm also not sure this release innovates enough to be worth that price tag. It's probably a great release and probably will make the Ultraview guys a killing. I don't get the hype though.
@@MrcDaWg114 well said I was thinking about getting one but my wise choice is doing such a wonderful job I just don't see the need to upgrade + lose draw lenght like the video mentioned.
It's my go-to release. I love the feel and the confidence it gives me. The release is one part I don't mind spending on. It's the most important accessory. They say it comes out of the box "hot" but i felt it was set perfectly, stock. The Stan access I had before's coldest setting was hotter than this came. I could barely trust that release to draw with. As a newer archer, the UV button gave me my confidence back at 70#. I'm ready to try 75#
They gonna be banking.. imagine the materials used too, not very much. Not comparing apples to apples but just think about a lone wolf stand material used compared to this and price difference. Blows my mind
I bought the UV Hinge 2 and ended up lengthening the D-Loop on my Solution SS by 3/8". That slight change kept my form perfect from when I was shooting the T.R.U. Ball Max Pro+ thumb release, which had a head about 3/8" longer. I'm finally getting comfortable with back-tension after having played with the T.R.U. Ball GOAT and the Hinge 2 a week later. The GOAT has a shorter head, but no adjustability for the click as I would like to "cool" it down a bit like I can on the Hinge 2. I'm using the GOAT on my Infinite Edge Pro (that is shooting lights out after making new strings for it and tuning it). I ended up having to lengthen the drawlength by a half inch AND extending the D-Loop a quarter inch on this bow. The IE Pro is my "I can outshoot your $2000 bow with a $400 kid's bow" bow against people at my club who likes to talk smack and think they're better than everyone else because they shoot a flagship bow. And I was doing it while punching the trigger with a thumb release! Haha. These hinge releases are going to help me step up my game to another level. Next release I get will be the Button for hunting, after I get proficient with the hinge. Thanks for all the great content, Josh!
My anchor point changed signicantly and it's the only reason I want to get rid of it. I tried to shorten my d loop as much as I could but my knuckles are still behind my ear. What a bad design flaw I really liked the way it felt in my hand
Always have enjoyed the content and information you release. Would like to hear what you think about the new Hoyt target bow . I know most of your content is around the hunting bows ,and yet would like to hear you thoughts. Thank you again
Dropped the large coin on one of these back in September and I really like it but to be honest my Wise Choice fits my hand better and I think it actually triggers better than the UV button. Might actually be looking to sell it, and just stick with the Wise Choice.
I'm not sure the new Ultraview thumb button release is the answer. I cant give up on my Carter Chocolate Addiction quite yet. $350.00 is a lot of money for a release with a great thumb nob. I haven't seen anything really revolutionary form Ultraview to constitute the steep pricing of their goods. But, they have a hell of a marketing team.
Great review like always with that being said I'd rather have the stan or even the wise choice for that matter just as good, cheaper and a shorter neck on it ..and that's a win win win..lol..Btw way cool cut Bro..✌🏻
Once I moved from a wrist strap to a thumb button I could never go back. It was hard making that jump at first, went with the Stan Shootoff and now shoot their Perfex and always wanted to try a hinge so I now also have the Onnex. Going down the archery rabbit hole is expensive.
Dan likes to talk a lot of shit about you being tall and not skipping leg day like he does…. But at night he has been sitting in front of the bathroom mirror putting his hair in a Mohawk and telling himself he can out shoot MFJJ. Then he wakes up the next day and reality sets in again! Haha All kidding aside, I haven’t archery hunter in about 6yrs and when I decided to pick it back up I can’t get a bough of yours and Dan’s videos! Keep up the great content! Also I feel like that ultra view would help my transition back into archery! Haha
Josh, Where to you get your target back stops at? I personally use a Spott Hogg Whipper Snapper. Short nose. I removed the gnarled knob and tuck the arm that the knob was attached to into the webbing between my thumb and forefinger and just squeeze. Works good for me.
Thats one reason why i aint getting this release unfortunately. Tried the plastic version and made my draw feel longer. Would have cost me to buy a new shorter module
MFJJ: I started with a finger release in 2006 when I started shooting bows. I am considering going to a button release. Any suggestions on what I should look at? I just ordered a new Mathews Lift and thought this is a good time to make a decision and practice before the new bow arrives. There seem to be so many options I am looking for suggestions on which ones to try first.
I agree with the neck length being to long. I have a short draw so I don’t want to give up any draw length. I shot a Carter too simple for the extra short neck length and tried a friends ultra view thumb. Felt like I’d have to shorten my draw by atleast .75”.
This was my first thought as well - glad MFJJ discussed it. When I compared the neck length to my release (Nock 2 It), I have to believe that I would be giving up at least 1/2" of draw length. I recently moved my draw length from 29.5" to 30", and I picked up a full 7 fps! That is a big speed difference to go with this release!
JJ, Could you or Elk Shape do a review/comparison of new high end index releases? Not from a hunting point of view but more from a 3D/Target perspective.
I was under the impression I would want to have a longer neck on my release so I would keep the knock of the arrow away from my face Yes you might give up a quarter inch of draw length but I would rather keep that arrow away from my face
But Witten the nose link being shorter you could really influence the shot with your face and facial pressure if that nosleep is shorter I would think thank to keep it away from your face would be better
I was going to ask how you would compare the UV and the Onnex. I currently shoot the wise choice but would like adjustability on the thumb barrel position. Just interested on your thoughts.
Making a great product takes designing. If making terrific releases was cheap and easy, there would be many other cheaper better models out there. Tell me where I can buy this cheaper, better release and I’ll throw my money there.

Amen
UV is for the hypebeast with to much money. Lol I once fell for it but realized it wasn't it pretty quickly.
People always think if it's expensive it must be good. Killed a few with a $30. Let idiots spend the think the are getting better
@@MrcDaWg114 well said I was thinking about getting one but my wise choice is doing such a wonderful job I just don't see the need to upgrade + lose draw lenght like the video mentioned.
I appreciate the detailed review. Somebody who has a shorter draw length like myself really likes to know those added tidbits of info you give.
Totally agree with the head length, sold my uv hinge because of it
It's my go-to release. I love the feel and the confidence it gives me. The release is one part I don't mind spending on. It's the most important accessory.

Imma have to start callin my man the Mohawk Warrior 😂😂😂

He loves their “knob work”

I think this could be a really good tool to use and maybe a good release for hunting
Thank you sir GREAT review
Mine finally arrives tm. Will find out if I go with it or the Stan Onnex.
Definitely putting that barrel on my Wise Choice
Awesome release highly recommend if you shoot the hinge 2
maybe a possible video could be the uv button vs the uv hinge?? dig the content and keep hammering that trigger, just jokin😂
Nice simple review. Not sure if I would get it. But I would think about it. I have a Stan Shoot Off Heavy Black release. But I like that thumb button.
My anchor point changed signicantly and it's the only reason I want to get rid of it. I tried to shorten my d loop as much as I could but my knuckles are still behind my ear. What a bad design flaw I really liked the way it felt in my hand

Best release I ever used I’ll never use nothing else but the uv button
@@Getdownorlaydownbum Have you tried their arrows yet? Curious what your thoughts are.
Looks like a great release. Nice review

Scam above
Love my hinge 2.
You man thank you for the order goodies!

If you had a loop made out of braided spectra how easy/ difficult do you think it would be to get the loop into the hook?

Personally, I really like mine but I am definitely waiting until next season before I take it into the woods.
Mad respect for the pit sweat 😂
I'll have to wait until after hunting season to look into the handheld release... maybe not $350 but who knows, when something feels right
Josh, Where to you get your target back stops at? I personally use a Spott Hogg Whipper Snapper. Short nose. I removed the gnarled knob and tuck the arm that the knob was attached to into the webbing between my thumb and forefinger and just squeeze. Works good for me.
Man that looks sweet i was hoping you would do a review
I have the same gripe with the UV Hinges…it’s too long, which makes me shorten the DL or anchor differently.
Yup I agree with that. Part of the reason why I went to the HBC hinge the Perfx and Onnex.
I appreciate your videos. Could you do a video on your 3 most favorite hinge type releases?
Best part about this release is the thumb button 😂
Thats one reason why i aint getting this release unfortunately. Tried the plastic version and made my draw feel longer. Would have cost me to buy a new shorter module
MFJJ: I started with a finger release in 2006 when I started shooting bows. I am considering going to a button release. Any suggestions on what I should look at? I just ordered a new Mathews Lift and thought this is a good time to make a decision and practice before the new bow arrives. There seem to be so many options I am looking for suggestions on which ones to try first.
Same for me my new lift is here tommrow and I’m switching to the uv button today…
Mfjj gots the techno Viking look going hahha and loves their knob work haha wtf jj.
I agree with the neck length being to long.
I have a short draw so I don’t want to give up any draw length.
I shot a Carter too simple for the extra short neck length and tried a friends ultra view thumb. Felt like I’d have to shorten my draw by atleast .75”.

I recently moved my draw length from 29.5" to 30", and I picked up a full 7 fps! That is a big speed difference to go with this release!
I don't see it replacing my Perfex any time soon. Not as much adjustability, neck is too long for my liking.
Could you possibly do a in depth video on how to shoot a release like this and if it would be the right choice for someone?
What if you cannot get on Instagram? Had too many issues with hackers
JJ,
Could you or Elk Shape do a review/comparison of new high end index releases? Not from a hunting point of view but more from a 3D/Target perspective.
Excited for the giveaway on this!! Do you think this is a great button to go to from an index release?
Hey MFJJ, are you still planning on building the other bows, aside from the Mathews, to see what you’ll hunt with this year?
I'm sticking to the onnex.
I was under the impression I would want to have a longer neck on my release so I would keep the knock of the arrow away from my face Yes you might give up a quarter inch of draw length but I would rather keep that arrow away from my face
Could you just shorten your d loop instead of adjusting draw length? Or develop a new anchor point.
Is it worth the cost compared to Stan and Carter?
I love my Stan onnex brass. Buddy has the UV button and it’s not for me. Really loving my stan tho!
But Witten the nose link being shorter you could really influence the shot with your face and facial pressure if that nosleep is shorter I would think thank to keep it away from your face would be better
Draw length shouldn’t change because of release length. D loop should be the adjustment.
I’m only going to use something that is mfjj approved!!
Will you have on to demo? Love to try it.
That more than I spent on a year old Matthews premium bow.. 🤦♂️
I was going to ask how you would compare the UV and the Onnex. I currently shoot the wise choice but would like adjustability on the thumb barrel position. Just interested on your thoughts.
Need one of those looking for a new one
I will stick with the TB GOAT.
I paid the 350 for one, biggest wate of money ever! didnt do anything for my groups, partialy because there was nothing wrong with them to begin with.
Nice release but cant see my self buy it for that price
Where can u buy that trainer?
the website
Pretty expensive but it appears to be one of the top releases currently sold
I’ll stick with my Stan!
Yes, it's expensive, but it is way more adjustable than most, and feels great. If it is made in the USA, I don't think it is too overpriced.
It is way overpriced, more than the Stan onnex and doesn’t come with anything other than the release itself. Where as Stan gives extra everything.
Yes is overpriced and they are not the only one made USA
Draw length? No you need a shorted dloop, that's not going to change your draw length.
It might be the greatest thumb trigger ever….. BUT … almost $400???? Seriously…. No way..
I do not see that costing that much in material, machining, and labor.. I like their approach to products but the prices are ridiculous.
“Very very popular”…they just released them in medium only. Talk about over hyping and pimping a product.
Fanboy stuff
Making a great product takes designing. If making terrific releases was cheap and easy, there would be many other cheaper better models out there. Tell me where I can buy this cheaper, better release and I’ll throw my money there.
0:36 Obviously can’t trust this review. Conflict of interest.
A bit overpriced like most of the UV products 😬
Looks like an over priced knock off of the Stans Perfex.
Overhyped.
