Jeff...what MCNSC described is exactly what my father did for years..he used a strip of cork  mounted with some double sided tape and a straight pin. It worked great for him

An older gentleman ordered a bow from our shop (a PSE Coyote, 55#s) and when it came in he brought a box with him which contained a vintage Martin multi pin site 6" stabilizer, release and wrist sling. Had me mount all of it as well as a rear string peep and shooters loop for his mechanical release. I suggested that he drop down in weight with new limbs but he stated this was his "hunting" set up. The poor guy was way over bowed and the last I heard had put the bow up in his closet out of frustration. WAY back in my younger day I tried sights but found them to not be for my likeing. Best of luck with your venture, hope it works for you!!!

My Dad experimented with sights quite a bit back in the 70's. His input is that on a low poundage bow on targets, they can't be beat. He didn't like them for hunting.

Do you have to hold the bow vertical with a sight?  I always had to - making for limited shooting positions in trees or brush.

I shot target recurves with a single pin in the 70's in college but don't see it as a hunting option.

I'm definitely going to try it.  I think it will help me learn gaps better and may even help me just visualize better to improve my instinctive shooting.

Stumpkiller, you can adjust a sight pin to compensate for bow cant, BUT the degree of your cant HAS to be consistent. However, I found that at short ranges it isn't that critical.  But then at short ranges you may not even want a sight.

Nah, that's why I gave up compounds.  No offense.

I also tried the SR site to get me through a slump a couple years ago. In fact I took a nice buck with it. My shooting had gone to crap right in the middle of deer season and I needed a quick fix. What I learned from the first shot was how out of control my bow hand was. At best my bow passed over the target for a fraction of a second and I would let go. I struggled for a couple of days re-earning to draw and hold long enough to settle in. For me it was a great training aid.

I put a scope on mine- just too hard to learn how to shoot a bow without it. You know, time learning instinctive and everything. My next thing is a mechanical release, oh and a tripod to get that extra stability. What I really want is a crossbow-just like a rifle.
I know the above sounds sarcastic. My bias is that trad bowhunting is about NOT using sights and releases and stuff.

Any that will end this one.
