Archers and bowhunters love to tinker with gear. Whether we need it or not, we always seem to be making adjustments, improvements and additions to our equipment. And few gear items get the attention most of us give our arrows.
Fortunately for tech savvy archers, we’re living in the good old days of arrow technology. No longer do you have to worry about grabbing parts and pieces from a variety of sources. Today’s most sophisticated arrows are now built as a complete system.
Overkill? Maybe. Confidence builder? Absolutely.
But, how much would you spend on high-end arrows? Prices have continued to rise in recent years, but this latest offering from UltraView certainly caught or attention. The new UV 1K arrow line just launched with a price tag of $219 – for a 6-pack. Would you do it? Take a closer look in the video below from our friends at Lancaster Archery.
The UltraView teams says that from nock to point, UV 1K arrows redefine what an arrow system should be. They view each component as an integral part of a unified system. Say goodbye to the frustration of mismatched parts and experience the unparalleled synergy of UV 1K first hand.
The goal at UltraView isn’t to simply make better arrows, but to make better bowhunters. And that’s an admirable goal. But what is it about these arrows that will make better bowhunters?
Check out the features and specs built into these arrows for a closer look at how they are setting themselves apart.
- UV 1K Carbon Weave: Renowned for its superior strength-to-weight ratio, this advanced material ensures the straightest arrow with the tightest tolerances, enhancing post-shot stability.
- 4.5mm Hybrid Diameter: Get the benefits of both a 5mm and a 4mm shaft in one. The 4.5mm shaft, combined with the ultra-high performance of 1K carbon, delivers the micro-diameter of a 4mm with the lightness of a 5mm shaft, all while maintaining ultra-durable componentry.
- Custom Molded UltraView Vanes: Inspired by advanced flight dynamics, UV Vanes are molded—not ribbon cut—for optimal consistency. Their contoured design increases surface area and stiffness, enhancing overall performance.
- Satin Ice Coating: Advanced nano ceramic arrow coating improves penetration and allows for easy removal from targets.
- UV 100 Grain Field Point: Custom field point with PVD coating and always-tight o-ring retainment system.
- UV 75 Grain Outsert: Have peace of mind on even the toughest of game. The dual-material, steel core aluminum outsert optimizes toughness and FOC.
- Victory Partnership: UV 1K is designed by UltraView and built by Victory.
- UV 1K Packaging: The sleek box holds six UV 1K arrows and allows for easy storage, stacking, travel, and wall-hanging.
