I love the "tightening the knot" analogy as a thought process just before the shot, regardless of which type of release. I'm scooping that.

My advice is this: before you try the hinge release you must and i say you MUST first make sure you have the right draw lenght, if you have half an inch of extra draw lenght you'll get confused and frustrated sometimes, so find your perfect draw lenght and then the hinge will be like a second nature!

As a newish archer I found this very helpful, I've found the relax the pointer finger advice you give, gives me the tighter groups, thank you

Excellent videos without doubt one of the best channels for Archery information and lessons. Thank you.

Thanks for putting out this info. Just ordered hinge going to give it a try . Really just getting back into shooting last December and shot a ton this year.

Favorite channel for bow info. Keep it up bro

You do a great job at explaining,good job.

Been shooting with the Hinge for less than a week and already LOVE IT! I also threw a clear hair tie around the neck to keep it from flopping around and now it is quiet. I have shot a index trigger, thumb button, back tension (Silverback) and now this Hinge- to date best I’ve used.

This is the best description of how to shoot a hinge out there. Well done, great instruction, and so clear of what not to do to keep improving

Had been struggling with my hinge so rewatched this… bingo… tie the knot and you’ll be smashing the middle 🥳 thanks man

You're a great teacher of archery thanks for another great video 🏹

Yup! I pulled the shot and two $16 arrows went into the mystical woods never to be seen again 😁

This right here is why you are my favorite channel for archery. I've talked to many many archers and had them try to explain how to shoot a hinge. What I found is they (as well as myself) can't find a way of explaining it that makes sense. The way you broke that down made such perfect sense and was so easy to understand. You are my favorite archer. I'm in Washington state, might have to make a trip to Oregon just so I can have the opportunity to meet you in person. That would be so awesome!

I think Josh Flaster from Bow Only Outdoors best explains and demonstrates an effective way of shooting a hinge release

I really appreciate all of your content ! After watching your reviews of the 2020 Bow lineups, I visited one of my local pro shops and shot the Black 5, VXR 31.5, Helix Turbo and the PSE NXT 33 & NXT 35. I ended up with the Mathews. Also went with some Axis 340 spine arrows, that you mentioned in your video. The guy in the Pro Shop, you, and now myself have a very high opinion of that combo.

Keep these videos coming. You are doing a fantastic job and helping many archers. I have gone back and watched almost all the videos and it has helped me identify some of my issues with inconsistencies. Even the simplest things as draw length. Thanks for the great information. Keep up the great work.

Great explanation. I just picked up a Scott Ascent release which I really like, but was struggling with it today trying to pull through the shot. Sometimes it would feel fine and other times I felt like I was going to pull the bow apart before it went off. The biggest issue through was trying to stay on target through the process - it was all over the place. And I have shot back tension for years although mainly with a thumb trigger release. I just tried a few blank bale shots in the garage using this method and it seemed to work fine. I just need to make sure I relax my hand and not my back so I stay up against the wall. Definitely need to practice this for some time before I call it good....but my first impression is it felt smooth and I was able to keep the bow a lot more steady through the process. Thanks brother !!

What I’ve been doing is using my Stan shoot off 3 finger thumb button as a hinge ,I pull back and rotate the release without your thumb on the button. And let down,I just do it to get the feel of rotation of the release.I’m basically pretending I’m shooting a hinge ,aim and rotate real slow and let down. I plan on buying the true ball sweet spot pro with the safety.it will be the first hinge I’ve ever tried.

I have to say this video was superb, informative, and educational. I’ve shot with a trigger and now thinking about getting the B3 BG Ghost. Probably will now since this video did an excellent job of educating the viewer. Thanks!!

Great video dude, thank you!! I got the Ultraview Hinge and it and you videos I’m already better!!

Good video, describes very well what happens when one fires a hinge!!!!

Great video- what helped me a lot when drawing back with my hinge is to keep my pinky and ring finger angled towards the front of the bow when drawing back- keeping that forward angle will keep it from premature firing. Once you get used to it it’s easy

I got the new UV Hinge and have been struggling a bit with it...tried relaxing the palm as u sugggested with amazing results...thanks so much

Ya!!! Its all fluff. Lol Thanks for the video. Helped me alot brothet

Thanks on the very good information on shooting hinge release.

thank you sir.. somehow i can feel it..i watched your video multiple of time.. i used my thumb trigger to know and feels what are you talked about.. the relaxation through the shots.. when that shot happend.. i just know it will hit in the middle.. i will try blank bail with hinge release to get the same feeling..thank again

Awesome vid, I imagine you get a lot of requests for videos, but if you could do something similar to this with a thumb release that would be awesome. either way, greats videos man, really appreciate your work.

Great explanation...

Thank you so much helped a ton

Not sure how these would improve my shooting. I had a clamp style Mongoose forever, and recently upgraded to the Tru Ball Beast. I have to say shooting did not improve much if any, but it is easier to hook up now. Still great information here, Thanks!

Yes. Tightening the knot so that it stays on the same location of a strung is a good analogy. Great teacher. Training on my GOAT hinge now for few weeks. Needed help with my anchor and this video helped

Love my Sweet Spot Pro. The safety allows drawing the bow without any misfires. Lots of good advice to take to the range. Thanks.

Thanks for this must needed video. I am trying to learn a hinge. I also have sweet spot pro. Been switching from my thumb to hinge but can't seem to get consistent with the hinge.

should get a thumb that matches, like the Abyss Flex and Fulkrum Flex are a matched set, that way there is no issue, I have both of the ones I suggested and I can switch back and forth without a thought given.

Thank you for this. I just got a Honey 2

Awesome tutorial! Thanks for taking the time to explain so thoroughly. Excited to make the transition from trigger to hinge :)

Good video, I'm just learning to shoot compound after Olympic Recurve. I'm starting out with a TruBall Sweet Spot and it's totally different than finger shooting. The tip about relaxing the index finger to release helped a lot, sometimes I seemed to get stuck and couldn't get the release to fire. By the way, what's that shirt supposed to be, riding a bicycle with a deer head on your back?

I just started using the B3 ranger Hinge. The “oh shit it clicked” moment happens to me, I try to focus after and not let it shake me up kinda tough but fun new way to shoot. My first year of archery I could stack arrows, my second year got worse and now in my 4th year I had extreme target panic and I hope this will help that. It’s already making shooting Investing again!

At the 9:05 mark...this was me transitioning to a hinge back in March. It was a tough learning curve at first. I was doing exactly what you mentioned here with a release hand that was way too tense and when the shot wouldn't or should I say couldn't break I got nervous and just yanked through the shot with my ring finger...it sucked!! I watched this on Saturday and immediately tried your technique and was AMAZED how well the shot breaks!! I do however physically rotate the release slightly at anchor to get to the click, then start relaxing my palm and index finger until the shot fires. Is this okay or do you start relaxing even up to the click? GREAT, GREAT VIDEOS....LOVE THEM ALL....SO INFORMATIVE!!

The oh shit look. Love it. Yup that's me. Cannot shoot a hinge with a click

Nice vid and good points! 🤙 Should a new shooter go straight to this or learn with the wrist release? Am I completely wrong being timid towards these releases by thinking not as safe as wrist/trigger types?

Great job. You know your S$it, please keep making videos.

Awesome hinge video!! It's great to see another left handed shooter!! I just purchased a SCOTT ASCENT back tension release and have been using my trainer to get used to it before taking a shot. The main worry is accidentally rotating my hand on the draw and punching myself in the face lol!! But I have it set pretty stout and the adjustable click is very useful for me. Thanks for the in depth review and information on hinge releases. This is by far the best video I've watched on complete hinge training start to finish. I've been watching Steven Hann in Australia for a while now and his hinge vids are kinda vague on technique. I friended him on Facebook but he won't return my messages with just simple archery questions. Anyway, thanks for the great video. They help alot more than you realize!! are you shooting a mathews pro comp? I've been looking for a lefty for quite a while. NICE!!!!! thanks again brother!!! 🎸🎸🎸

Kellan I wonder if you could help point me to some hinges similar to the Scott ascent. I shot one of the b3 units and the thumb peg dug into my neck. I like the ascent better but I'm not really a fan of the rubber bands. Any info on similar equipment would be appreciated since I can't go and try hundreds of releases. Thanks

Just shot with my hinge today.. 1st when drawing, my hand will tense, put pressure 80% on my thumb and 20% on my index. then i release my thumb and relax my palm and its click.. when pulling while relax my thumb, shot will brakes..

Is the click to loud for hunting?

Switching to thumb and im noticing its harder for me to hold . Lot of tension in my hand and especially forearm.

@inside out precision. I’d like to submit a video for advice and critiques but I don’t have an Instagram. Any other options?

I have been practicing a hinge with a piece of cord . At times I am "snagging" my ear lobe when the release fires. Is there something I should be looking at changing?

Was wondering why your shops website just sends you to ebay when trying to shop?

How are you liking the UV hinge? Just got mine in, will say it's the most comfortable hinge I've shot. Can keep even pressure on all 3 fingers while drawing. In my opinion they hit a homerun with this release.

Just got mine yesterday. It's my second hinge as I've owned the Fulkrum Flex for a week before this one. So far, I love it and how comfortable it is. It seems to be the common factor for most people who have used it. I just wish that I had bought the Brass version instead of the Aluminum. I don't much like the feel of the Aluminum (the finishing). It also feels so light that it almost feels flimsy. I'm seriously considering exchanging it for the Brass, but I just don't want to go a couple weeks without it while I'm exchanging...

So that extra arm flail like Tim ( CEO ) has at the end of his shots in Vegas , is because his pull through process is wrong ?

Kellen. What is a good starter hinge? I have TP pretty bad and it has ruined my love of archery. So I am going to blank bail with a hinge but not sure where to start.

The Tru Ball sweet spot pro is great. Has a safety on it so you won’t ouch yourself in the face learning how to draw with it!

I bought the B3 ghost. It is the only hinge I have ever shot. Guess my question is where does it fall compared to the many others on the market? I like it but if there are better I wouldn"t mind getting another.

One of my hinge releases can be changed so you either have the click or you can turn a piece inside that makes it completely quiet. I chose the latter so the click wont scare a deer away.

Thank you for another great video. One nitpick, your explanation about the after affect of releasing does not match the movement you demonstrated during the video. I have seen this in several of your video's. You talk about the wild people who fling there arms wildly after the shot, but it does not have to be really big motions to be to much motion. Like so many coaches I see (myself included), we tend to exaggerate the motion while saying the actual motion is small.

I feel like a hinge is not for me... I can see myself loosing several arrows in winter when is 10°f and can barely feel my hands...

Don't think a hinge is for me. Don't see how people hunt with these. Thanks for the video

You made me not want to try a hinge...
