All in all though if you want to shoot sights why do it with a traditional bow, just stick to a compound then.
Maybe he's drawn to the recurve more so than the compound. Different folks have different reasons for doing what they do. The man wants to shoot a recurve. If he wants to do it with a sight, then so be it. I really get tired of hearing the "stick to a compound" comment when the topic of sights on a recurve is brought up.

I didn't say nothing wrong, just an opinion as was yours. I've had sights on my little recurves back in the day. What did I learn from it? Not a damn thing. Its no different then shooting a compound with sights, just allot tougher if your pulling allot of weight back. Each to there own but I believe a person will have better success without sights on a traditional bow, more so in hunting situations. Like I said its just an opinion of mine and I'm not knocking anyone for doing so if they wish.
