Ultraview Hinge 2 & UV Button Releases in Sarasota, FL

The Ultraview releases Sarasota page is for archers who want their release to feel as refined as the rest of their setup. At Sarasota Archery Academy, we carry the Ultraview Hinge 2 and Ultraview UV Button™ and build them into your training and bowhunting systems—not just your gear bag.

Ultraview designed these releases to share the same overall profile and geometry so you can move between a hinge and a thumb button with consistent anchors and hand feel. We take that concept further by fitting, adjusting, and coaching each release so it actually helps your shot, not fight it.

Why Ultraview Releases in Sarasota?

Your release is the last link between you and the bow. Ultraview built the Hinge 2 and UV Button to remove as many mechanical variables as possible and give archers a smooth, consistent shot for both hunting and target work.

Both releases are made from high-grade aluminum or stainless steel, use precise internal components, and feature micro-adjustment so we can tune them to your exact preference. More importantly, they share a common shape and hand fit, which makes it easier to switch styles as you develop.

At Sarasota Archery Academy, we use Ultraview releases inside:

Ultraview UV Button™ – Pro-Grade Thumb Release

The Ultraview UV Button is a premium thumb-button release built around one goal: precise, repeatable shots. Ultraview uses very tight tolerances and high-quality materials, then adds a deep level of adjustability so we can custom-tune the trigger to you.

Key Features of the UV Button

  • ULTRAGLIDE™ bushing system – A self-lubricating internal bushing isolates metal-on-metal contact. The result is a smooth, low-maintenance, and quiet release for long-term hunting and target use.
  • Shared geometry with Hinge 2 – The UV Button and Hinge 2 share the same profile and hand fit, which makes switching between them feel natural and consistent.
  • Micro-adjust trigger – You can set both travel and tension from feather-light to super-heavy without swapping springs, so we can dial in a trigger that matches your shot style.
  • D-loop retainment – A springed D-loop retainer lets you clip onto the string and leave it there, which is ideal for hunting setups.
  • Lanyard-compatible third finger – Built-in slot for a wrist lanyard if you prefer to keep the release attached to you in the woods.
  • Contour thumb knob & Cerakote finish – A grooved, ergonomic knob and durable Cerakote coatings help with comfort, grip, and long-term durability.

How We Set Up a UV Button at SAA

  • Fit to your hand: We choose the right size (medium or large) and finger configuration so the release sits naturally in your hand.
  • Set a safe starting trigger: We start with a conservative tension and travel, then walk you into a feel that encourages clean execution rather than punching.
  • Build a thumb-trigger process: We teach you how to safely “wrap and pull” with the thumb, instead of jabbing the button.
  • Integrate with your bow: We verify that your anchor, peep height, and D-loop length all work with the new release during Bow Setup & Fitting or Bow Tuning.

The UV Button is often our first choice for bowhunters who want a premium handheld release and for target archers who want a clean, adjustable trigger.

Ultraview Hinge 2 – Back-Tension Release for Clean Execution

The Ultraview Hinge 2 is a hinge-style release designed from the ground up around the human hand. Ultraview literally measured and studied lots of hands to create deliberate, ergonomic finger beds so the release sits naturally and consistently every time you draw.

Key Features of the Hinge 2

  • Dual-moon click and fire system – Separate moons for click and fire let you micro-adjust timing for both, instead of swapping hooks or guessing.
  • Magnetic head retention – A small magnet keeps the head from flopping around. This makes the Hinge 2 extremely quiet and hunter-friendly.
  • Comfortable, ergonomic grip – Carefully shaped finger beds help you place your hand the same way each time, which supports rock solid shot execution.
  • Multiple sizes & hunting brackets – Medium and large handles, plus 2, 3, and 4-finger hunting brackets with wrist-strap slots, let us configure the release to your hand and bowhunting style.
  • Durable finishes – Available in lightweight aluminum or heavier stainless options with Cerakote finishes to balance stability and comfort.

How We Coach the Hinge 2 at SAA

  • Safety and control first: We start with an appropriate click and fire timing so you can safely learn hinge mechanics without surprise misfires.
  • Back-tension focused training: We use the Hinge 2 in Advanced Coaching and Team SAA to teach true pull-through shot execution and to help archers work through target panic.
  • Hunting applications: For bowhunters, we build a process that balances control and surprise so the Hinge 2 remains safe and effective in real bowhunting situations.
  • Matching to the UV Button: Because the Hinge 2 and UV Button share geometry, we can often get very similar points of impact between the two with proper technique.

Many archers use the Hinge 2 as their primary training release and run the UV Button for tournaments or hunting, using both inside our lesson pathway.

Ultraview Hinge 2 & UV Button – FAQs

Do I have to buy the release from you?

No. We can fit, adjust, and coach Ultraview releases you bought elsewhere. Buying through Sarasota Archery Academy simply makes it easier for us to handle ordering, inspection, and warranty support, and to coordinate your release with tuning and lessons.

Is a hinge release safe for bowhunting?

Yes, a hinge can be safe when it is set up correctly and used with a strong shot process. However, it is not right for every hunter. During a Bow & Equipment Consultation we will discuss your experience level and make a recommendation for the Hinge 2, UV Button, or a different style if needed.

Can I start with an Ultraview release as a newer archer?

It depends. Brand-new archers usually start with simpler releases while they learn form and safety. Once an archer has a solid foundation and is serious about archery, an Ultraview release can be a great long-term investment that moves from bow to bow.

Will you adjust my existing release?

Yes. We are happy to review and adjust your current release during Bow & Equipment Consultation, Bow Setup & Fitting, or private coaching sessions. If we see major limitations, we will talk about whether an Ultraview Hinge 2 or UV Button is a better fit.

How do I book an Ultraview release fitting?

The easiest way is to request a Bow & Equipment Consultation and mention “Ultraview release,” “Hinge 2,” or “UV Button” in your message. We will plan your time in the shop around fitting, adjustment, and coaching for whichever release you choose.
