Filmed August 2023, This video is how im using the OnneX Clicker to help fix my target panic, using principles taught to me by watching and supporting Shot IQ, Joel Turner, John Dudley, Levi Morgan, and Elk Shape. I am simply showing how I have used there skills to help me get over this target panic mess I'm in. I dont consider myself an teacher, but maybe this video can help those who are going through target panic.

I've been shooting the clicker for 3 months now and I love it. It has slowed down my shot process and that has made me a lot more accurate.

It's a good one!! Did you adjust yours at all. Or is it still set to factory settings?

I’m using the same release but in brass. I had the sage one (I prefer that color to the brass) but I like the feel of the brass one better. So far it has significantly helped me slowed down my shot process. Which also allowed me to accept pin float. Doing both of those have significantly helped my target panic. I do have the travel to click heavy so there is more travel which helps me focus on a slow and steady pull.

@MichiganGreatOutdoors 6 ай бұрын

yeah, I want the weight of the brass in sage green. For me it removes the anxiety of having too much pressure on the button or not enough. U know once that click goes off it's basically go time. Which I really like.

Target panic is a sign of anticipating the shot. A good exercise to help remind you what a shot should feel like is to stand close to a target with your trigger release on and have someone push the trigger for you after the arrow is properly aimed. It should come as a complete surprise to you when the release happens. This is how the many releases on the market should feel to you. You shouldn't be able to anticipate when the shot is going off. You just continue to push/pull through the shot until the release surprisingly happens. I use this method with hinge releases and even trigger releases while hunting. Another thing I heard you mention when discussing target panic was keeping the sight pin on the target. This is another sign you are trying too hard. The better way is extreme focus on a small spot on the target and the peep/pin just happen to fall into your line of vision properly. Your focus should remain on the target, not the pin. It's a similar process to what we use in traditional instinctive shooting. Many times, when shooting compound and the trigger releases, it feels to me like the pin was not on the target but did hit where it should. I suggest getting Bernie Pelerite's "Idiot Proof Archery." It was an indispensable book for me when relearning how to shoot archery after a five year hiatus due to military service. It will help you work through target panic and never look back. Hope this helps. I appreciate your videos, especially the Hunt Arsenal ones since there are few of those on KZbin.

Thank you so much for this detailed comment. Nobody ever talks about what there process is for actually aiming at the target. I am just a student of the game, I try and share my experiences along the way and reading your comment about your process is very helpful. Thank you for sharing Bernie Pelerite's "Idiot Proof Archery." book, I just ordered it!!

Instead of grip tape I took some 30 grit sandpaper, removed the particles from the paper and, with 5 minute epoxy, glued the grit to the release - I really like the positive feel.

It really helps you slow down the shot process and helps create a routine which can help with target panic. The only way Ive beaten it with an index release is to literally shoot thousands and thousands of arrows....

@TimGruver-o3n 6 ай бұрын

Single digit manipulation is a command. It still requires a mental thought which interrupts your down range focus for a micro second which can allows for pin movement. Set it up where you just pull. No thoughts at all. As the pin float gets to is smallest just keep pulling WITHOUT having to even think. No command now stuff. This is a more continuos action from the second you achieve your anchor.

Looks like a cool release. I finally switch to a thumb button this season. I'm using the B3 Exit Pro. This things looks pretty sweet but I think that i could be a bit worried hunting with it. That click seems a bit loud. Are you concerned that it will alert deer before you shoot?

@MichiganGreatOutdoors 6 ай бұрын

Not at all, the click sounds louder than normal cause the mic is hanging from my neck so its basically right next to it.

Thanks for the transparent review. At that price, it is unfortunate that a burr on the hook (the working part of the product) speaks volumes about product quality and manufacturing.

Tried to switch to thumb button last season, had trouble with getting the right pressure on the thumb button. Always felt i was not in control, if you know what mean, especially for hunting. This might be the ticket.

@MichiganGreatOutdoors 6 ай бұрын

I know exactly what you mean, and if you have been using an index for years it's even harder IMO to transition. That's why I think the release trainer is critical, you really have to put some work into the transition period...

So I did receive the release, the click is a little hard to get used to so I've kept it running as a normal thumb release for now however I didn't notice the same thing on my DL, I had a very small polishing tip for my Dremel that I put somepolishing compound on to smooth it out

My Onnix C came today. I'm curious as to how long after the click you continue to hold - after having shot it a while. Re-watching your vid. I see you hold about 0ne second after the click - has that changed? I really like how sharp the knurling is on the Onnix, no need to glue on sandpaper grit.

I dont really have a count, I just know that once the click happens its going to go off and u just want to keep pulling as slow as possible to hopefully get a surprise release.

@@MichiganGreatOutdoors Over the last week I've been watching LOTS of 'release' videos. Maybe because it is so obvious, nobody mentions oiling the release. I just applied a good gun oil to my brand new release - what a HUGE difference!

Great video, thank you. So the click is tied to the pressure, not the travel? If travel is set to near zero, the click is based only on the amount of pressure? And if so, the click pressure is fully adjustable? Thanks

@MichiganGreatOutdoors 5 ай бұрын

Your OnneX Clicker Thumb release is adjustable for both trigger travel and tension. Trigger travel refers to trigger movement and trigger tension refers to the amount of force required on the trigger for your release to fire

@MichiganGreatOutdoors 5 ай бұрын

I pulled this off the website, I didnt change any settings on mine, I like how it is right out of the box. Factory Reset: You will need a 5/64 allen key for the travel and tension adjustments. First cock the release. With the release cocked adjust the trigger travel adjustment screw located between the trigger and hammer clockwise until the release fires, then, turn the adjustment screw counterclockwise to the point that the release can be cocked. At this point the release has no travel and trigger tension can now be taken away or added to the system (at this point the release is set in the click shelf and will function as a standard thumb). Turn the adjustment screw counterclockwise more to engage the clicker shelf to enable the clicker function of the release. Adjusting Trigger Tension: You will need a 5/64 allen key. Trigger tension is adjusted using the screw located in the outside of the index finger hook. Turning the tension adjustment screw clockwise makes the trigger feel heavier to activate, turning it counterclockwise makes it feel lighter. Adjust the screw until you find your desired tension. CAUTION: Be careful not to adjust the tension so light that the release goes off unintentionally. This release can be set light enough that even the slightest contact can activate the mechanism. Unintentional activation can cause serious damage to yourself and others. The OnneX Clicker can be adjusted to a point past the click. After each adjustment, test the settings with caution and attention to possible accidental activation for at least 10 consecutive shots. Adjusting Trigger Travel: You will need a 5/64 allen key for this adjustment. Trigger travel is adjusted using the trigger travel adjustment screw located between the trigger and the hammer. Turning the trigger travel adjustment screw clockwise decreases trigger travel, while turning counterclockwise increases trigger travel. CAUTION: Be careful not to adjust the travel so low that the release goes off unintentionally. The travel can be set right on the edge of contact, and it is important to make sure there is enough engagement to repeatedly maintain its lock through the entire draw cycle. The release can unintentionally fire if there is not adequate engagement to maintain its lock. Unintentional activation can cause serious injury to yourself and others. The OnneX Clicker can be adjusted to a point past the click. After each adjustment, test the setting with caution and attention to possible unintentional activation for at least 10 consecutive shots. Adjusting the Thumb knob: You will need a 5/64 allen key for this adjustment. The thumb barrel on your STAN is fully adjustable for height, angle, and tilt. There are two different trigger extension lengths and barrels. To change the barrel and extension, remove the screws from the extension and loosen the screw in the end of the barrel, being careful not to lose the locking slug that is in the barrel. Reattach the barrel extension you want to use to your release

If I am not mistaken you can also adjust it to where you can shoot it like a standard thumb release without the click ?

Can anyone explain the sizing to me? How do I know if I need a medium or large? Other than going to a local shop…No shops near me have both sizes.

@MichiganGreatOutdoors Ай бұрын

Unfortunately, I don't think there is any way to explain it where it will make any sense... You have to try them or go to Lancaster where they have the sizes all on a size ring... I got the XL and I think a large would have worked for me, my wife has the medium and she likes it, she has pretty small hands I pulled this off of Stans Website. What is the size difference between the small, medium, large, X-large, and XXL handles? There is a 10% size increase between sizes. We use glove sizing as a design reference. Our hook and finger bed locations are also the same across the SX3, Shootoff, PerfeX and now the OnneX handles.
