My V3X is all decked out with UV , just received my hinge2 and it’s the first back tension that I shot and don’t have any fears … if anyone out there is in the same boat as me , I would definitely recommend buying the hinge2 . I think I’m gonna preorder a button for the upcoming season , oh yeah , the UV scope also is incredible !!! Thanks for making such awesome archery equipment !!! 💪💪💪
The guy I was talking to today had me trying to shoot it like a hinged. I’ve been shooting for a month total in archery and am pretty good. I have a Missouri state tournament this weekend and am trying to get better before then. This video helped a lot
nice explanation! it probably goes without saying to most but these things are generally very light triggers, point being keep your thumb the heck off it on your draw. there’s an arrow of mine in the rafters at my local indoor range to remind me of my first session with a thumb button
This was one of the best explanations of how to properly use a thumb button, especially the dragging of the thumb piece. Also, UV Button is a great release with a clean trigger that helps the technique
At 77 years young, I am over 1 year of using your info to learn in many areas the how to use a thumb button. I need to work on the form you show. I will purchase a uv button. I tried when you had a promotion during Christmas but you were out. I am a form follows function kind of guy so I will up date when I start. In my case time is critical and fleeting. Thanks Slinger1915
Interesting, I was told specifically not to put it deep and I have forever been fighting to not punch it. You are correct that it is easy to develop some bad habits with these, I am going to try adjusting my button and see if it helps at all. I really like that ultraview, it might be my next release :)
Very interesting, I went from a wrist strap to a thumb button and then went back to a wrist strap because I felt like it was to much of a jerky action trying to push the button with my thumb, Definitely being ex army the finger trigger style feels more like what I’m used to but I’m going to try this technique and see if it improves me shooting and feel with a thumb button. Thanks!
Excited! Just ordered this. Was on the fence with getting the Hinge 2 but got a few hunts coming up and I feel the Hinge has a bigger learning curve than the Button. Still getting the Hinge however when hunting season is “over”. Mahalos Chris 🤙🏽
Hey Chris 👋 I just switched to a button release and I was wondering where you like to have your anchor point because of how different it is from a trigger release
I’m assuming you can make it also a four finger grip instead of the three? I’m just curious I’m looking to get one but want to make sure that if I don’t like the three fingers I can swap it to a four finger.
Can you twist your wrist so that your thumb is lower than your fingers or does your hand need to be parallel with the ground? I feel like twisting the d loop cant be good but my thumb button wants to hit my jaw and it makes wrapping thumb difficult.
So I’m interested in this release but I’m not sure how they are sizing them? I typically wear an clothes-glove so I’m just wondering if I should wait for the large release to come out?
Chris how stiff do you set the trigger? Do you set it so it only goes off when you start pushing and pulling I would think you don't want it so light so it goes off prematurely right
I have a barnett bortex youth hunting bow and i was wondering if you knew a way to install a peep without a press because i have a peep but it isnt installed
Hey Chris quick question, do you shoot with one or two eyes open? I’ve always shot everything with one eye, what are the advantages of two eyes open over one eye open?
Man, I'm dying to use the UV button. But it's just too much for me right now. Family comes first. Is there a cheaper and similar release I could buy that you'd recommend?
Had a local pro shop tune my bow. About 2 out of five groups are high left or right now. Not flyers but they are grouped together. It seems my fletchings are hitting the cable guard now. Mathews v3x 33 with the methews integrate rest didn't have this problem until I got it tuned.
I’ve been trying to get use to a button release lately but after 25 plus years of using and old cobra index trigger it’s been difficult to make the change lol
Hello Chris, I was wondering what release style did you start with. I am thinking about purchasing a Button, but worried I will accidentally release while pulling it back.
I started with a finger release but have recently moved to a thumb button. I would recommend the finger release just to get form and the idea of a surprise release down there is a ton going on as a beginner archer. That being said everything should advance so then move onto a thumb and take your time. A good shot trainer or what's called blank bailing is rely important. Just don't get frustrated.
Couple years ago, I bought my Mathews VXR (which was the flagship at the time), whisker biscuit, apex sight and walked out the door pretty much just over $1500. Bow shop also installed my peep, D loop, and the correct mods for my draw length and poundage.
when you say ' rotate ' what exactly rotates? I've heard this many times but have no idea what supposed to be rotating. The way I understand the term, I cannot see any rotation.
I have shot a index finger release for a while then I had a private bow lesson and that guy said you should try a hinge. So now I shoot a hinge for target practice and for hunting I will always use a index
Can someone give me some information, some direction into the pouch that mr Bee is using for his binoculars, release & stuff on his chest? How is this called? Wwhere could i find such a poucch?
For me it was a really quick transition! You could always just practice with the handheld and then hunt with the index (what you are comfortable with). That’s what I did last year
I use the pad of my finger on the very edge of the release on a trigger style. Idk why but after the military I just can see myself using a thumb release
You should emphasize the importance of a surprise release as opposed to commanding the shot. The button is great because it makes it very easy to use back tension and get a surprise release every time.
Hey Bee, Can you describe more detail, the push -pull, I switched as well to button, waiting for large UV Button,, I was a pitcher in MILB, so my shoulder is shot , went to thumb release rather the wrist wrap, for some reason it didnt hurt shoulder going to thumb,, But can you describe the push / pull you speak of?
My issue is I have a bad shoulder. I grew up riding bulls going from rodeo to rodeo up until I was 26. I’ve had shoulder surgery and even reinjured my shoulder riding bulls. I’m now 42 with issues with movement. I own 3 button releases but with the way you hold the release it puts to much strain on my shoulder creating pain. I have to keep going back to the trigger release which sucks. I’m even trying to save up to get the hinge 2. Not sure why with the shoulder problems I have but I have to try. This release looks great but I think I’m still going to try the hinge.
I don't understand the push pull, what are you pushing? Are you wrapping the trigger and then relaxing your other fingers to allow the release to move forward slightly and go off?
You push with the hand that is holding the bow. And pull with your release hand. It creates a natural break. More similar to a hinge style release- its good practice.
I won’t be in elk or really deer territory either next year and this is my first year putting in for tags . Of course I didn’t draw anything. Soooooo I’m ready to go hunting with you . When should I come over 😐😆
I found this release has a critical issue that it cannot be easily hooked to the D-loop, versus to my ultraview back tension release or STAN thumb release.

I’d be willing to switch to this release but good god it’s more expensive than my electric bill in the dead of summer!
this is the best release i’ve had. it’s worth the extra money
It's actually getting ridiculous nowadays
I switched from a index to the spot hogg whipper snapper thumb release. It was $119. Still pricey but not UV cost.
@@braplife8227 What's getting ridiculous?
@@capricornmagic63 the price of archery accessories and especially UV.
Love the video! Been trying to find someone who explained the best way to shoot a thumb.
This was one of the best explanations of how to properly use a thumb button, especially the dragging of the thumb piece. Also, UV Button is a great release with a clean trigger that helps the technique
I've just gotten in to compound archery and I'm loving your channel. Gonna be spending a bit of time going through your videos I think!
oooo. A bow build ive always wanted to do a bow build with Chris Bee🐝
I haven’t found any good videos of how to properly connect the thumb release to the release aid loop
Only cause most people don’t use them
At 77 years young, I am over 1 year of using your info to learn in many areas the how to use a thumb button. I need to work on the form you show. I will purchase a uv button.

Love your videos. Can you explain what you mean by "push and pull". I'm fairly new to the scene and any help would be awesome. 🤘😀🤘
It's a Chris Bee DAY!
What a great explanation exactly what I need to know since I have that UV release and I will be using it today for first time.
Excited! Just ordered this. Was on the fence with getting the Hinge 2 but got a few hunts coming up and I feel the Hinge has a bigger learning curve than the Button. Still getting the Hinge however when hunting season is “over”. Mahalos Chris 🤙🏽
Hey Chris 👋 I just switched to a button release and I was wondering where you like to have your anchor point because of how different it is from a trigger release
How do you know what size to get?
I can’t wait to try the hinge and the button both are super cool looking releases
Great video!!! Ordered the button a few days ago and I can’t wait for it to get here and start shooting with it
Thank you for sharing your experience.🙏
I'm trying to find a thumb release for smaller hands?
I shoot my button like a hinge release my thumb on the barrel and then rotate into my thumb while pulling through the shot it’s helped me tremendously
Awesome! Amazing opportunity to whoever wins. Was about to order a release on Lancaster. Glad I waited and ordered it from you instead.
Your form looks incredible, do you have any tips on how to achieve that?
Thanks man just started looking for a new release to use
How did the Deadmeat practic head fly for you? I use the Megameat for whitetail and the practic head flies same as field point for me.
My first thumb button had that same style spiral barrel and I loved it
I’m assuming you can make it also a four finger grip instead of the three? I’m just curious I’m looking to get one but want to make sure that if I don’t like the three fingers I can swap it to a four finger.
Can you twist your wrist so that your thumb is lower than your fingers or does your hand need to be parallel with the ground? I feel like twisting the d loop cant be good but my thumb button wants to hit my jaw and it makes wrapping thumb difficult.
So I’m interested in this release but I’m not sure how they are sizing them?
I typically wear an clothes-glove so I’m just wondering if I should wait for the large release to come out?
What are those field tips you’re using. Are they the G5 montec points?
Do you shoot the large thumb?
How well do these work with heavy winter gloves?
Chris how stiff do you set the trigger? Do you set it so it only goes off when you start pushing and pulling I would think you don't want it so light so it goes off prematurely right
I have a barnett bortex youth hunting bow and i was wondering if you knew a way to install a peep without a press because i have a peep but it isnt installed
Thanks for survey,question about your bow poundage?
Hey Chris quick question, do you shoot with one or two eyes open? I’ve always shot everything with one eye, what are the advantages of two eyes open over one eye open?
just start doing it, you’ll thank yourself when your eyes adjust to do it. Much easier to float the pin and see target
What kind of feild points were you shooting in this video?
It looks like your shooting 3” X Vanes in a four fletch, curious what your thoughts are on 4 fletch Heat vanes vs X vanes.
Friend.. you maked a PERFECT description…🤙🏻👊🏻🏹💪🏻
Bow Rack. Best shop out there.
Thank you, nice technique, I will try it.!!!
So exited for this give away ive wanted u to do this for such a long time
Can the release be switched to work for lefties?
Any plans for larger button than the medium?
A video I’ve been waiting for so long. Been trying to decide if I want to ever get one of these they’re just so expensive !
Is there multiple barrel sizes available?
The giveaway is hype🤙🏽, thanks for the video Chris.👊🏽🐝
Hi, nice introduction...
The 'Ultraview UV Button' is ambidextrous (I am left hand shooter).
Thank you!
Man, I'm dying to use the UV button. But it's just too much for me right now. Family comes first. Is there a cheaper and similar release I could buy that you'd recommend?
My wife ordered a UV button for my BDay..... I couldn't be anymore excited to test it out.
Had a local pro shop tune my bow. About 2 out of five groups are high left or right now. Not flyers but they are grouped together. It seems my fletchings are hitting the cable guard now. Mathews v3x 33 with the methews integrate rest didn't have this problem until I got it tuned.
Can you talk a little about your Anchor Point when shooting a button, hinge or wrist release?
Hey Chris I just ordered a uv3 with a hha tetra max short bar, but is there any tips for sighting it in?
I’ve been trying to get use to a button release lately but after 25 plus years of using and old cobra index trigger it’s been difficult to make the change lol
Chris, what harness do you use for your bingo/range finder??
When will a large version be available? Or will there bee?
What is the size difference between the medium and large?
Hey Chris I have the hinge 2 in a large. Do you know when they'll be offering the button in a large?
What is your chest rig setup?
what’s bud? Any idea when you will have more in stock?
Thanks for all your advice I learned a lot from your channel
What kind of a peep sight do you have on your string there?
What model Binoculars do you use?

What kind of field tips are those?
Hey man first off enjoy the videos.. looking to get back into bow hunting could you recommend a good bow to get that I could get setup under 1500 ?
Couple years ago, I bought my Mathews VXR (which was the flagship at the time), whisker biscuit, apex sight and walked out the door pretty much just over $1500. Bow shop also installed my peep, D loop, and the correct mods for my draw length and poundage.

Hello Chris. What kind of arrowhead are you using? (7:11) Greetings from Hungary!
Two years late but it looks like the Practice tip for the G5 Deadmeat broadhead
yea love the button release i want to get one
Just received my UV shipment today, what about a ten spot for early order.
Dang I like those field points what are those?
Can someone give me some information, some direction into the pouch that mr Bee is using for his binoculars, release & stuff on his chest?
How is this called? Wwhere could i find such a poucch?
Leupold sells them on their website. I can't remember the name but go there and look in the gear section
I'm curious about these releases (shoot a wrist strap now) but I'm hesitant to change so close to bow season
For me it was a really quick transition! You could always just practice with the handheld and then hunt with the index (what you are comfortable with). That’s what I did last year
I use the pad of my finger on the very edge of the release on a trigger style. Idk why but after the military I just can see myself using a thumb release
Ty Chris! Great video! 👍
how does it connect to the loop...? can someone tell me please
You should emphasize the importance of a surprise release as opposed to commanding the shot. The button is great because it makes it very easy to use back tension and get a surprise release every time.
Hey Chris wondering when your going to make a UV scope cover?
Hey Bee,
Can you describe more detail, the push -pull, I switched as well to button, waiting for large UV Button,, I was a pitcher in MILB, so my shoulder is shot , went to thumb release rather the wrist wrap, for some reason it didnt hurt shoulder going to thumb,, But can you describe the push / pull you speak of?
Push with the hand holding the bow while pulling with the release hand. Usually with back muscles help to
My issue is I have a bad shoulder. I grew up riding bulls going from rodeo to rodeo up until I was 26. I’ve had shoulder surgery and even reinjured my shoulder riding bulls. I’m now 42 with issues with movement. I own 3 button releases but with the way you hold the release it puts to much strain on my shoulder creating pain. I have to keep going back to the trigger release which sucks. I’m even trying to save up to get the hinge 2. Not sure why with the shoulder problems I have but I have to try. This release looks great but I think I’m still going to try the hinge.
Any time frame on when the large will be available? I will definitely be buying one!
What are you pushing and what are you pulling??
what button release would you suggest for someone that's never used a button or hinge release?
Tru ball rave
I don't understand the push pull, what are you pushing? Are you wrapping the trigger and then relaxing your other fingers to allow the release to move forward slightly and go off?
You push with the hand that is holding the bow. And pull with your release hand. It creates a natural break. More similar to a hinge style release- its good practice.
Love the videos Chris bee! Keep up the great work man!
Think you could do a video of lower end more budget friendly releases?
What field points are those at 7:12?
I won’t be in elk or really deer territory either next year and this is my first year putting in for tags . Of course I didn’t draw anything. Soooooo I’m ready to go hunting with you . When should I come over 😐😆
What tips are those?
Chris you should do a video on your hunting everyday carry like your set up to how you carry your binos and ranger finder and all that
Could you do a review type vid on a redline rl1
does your anchor point change with a button release from using a index trigger release?
It will some.
Great video. I’d like to see your entire shot process instead of camera cutting back in as shot goes off.
I watch all your videos you legends
Wow Sweet
I found this release has a critical issue that it cannot be easily hooked to the D-loop, versus to my ultraview back tension release or STAN thumb release.
Dang it just seen this video to late to enter two weeks late love the vids man keep up good work
How do enter ?
