I never knew how inconsistent my form was until I put a pin on my bow. I still put some tape on the belly of my riser and use a hack mark sometimes if I'm struggling. You would be surprised what that little bit of reference can show you.

Nothing wrong with using sights at all. Jack Howard used them and was very successful. It wasn't unusual to see them on bows in the sixties and seventies. Worked well then and work just as well today.

My father in law had a recurve with a sight on it.
It was a movable peep on a toothed frame that was mounted to the bow, and was all made of brass. I asked him about it, and he told me the name of it, which I have forgotten. He said he took a deer and a black bear using that rig back in the 60's.

I don't have a sight at the moment but when I do I just use a DAS bracket with standard Eagle sight pins. I also shoot with sight configuration advocated by Jack Howard.

I am in the process of setting my Hoyt Desperado, that I just chronographed yesterday at 200 fps with a 420 grain arrow, up to shoot FITA competition with...once I get outdoors next spring I will be shooting a lot at 70 metres...my goal is to be confident enough to shoot an elk at 40 metres with the aid of a rangefinder...I would be more than happy to discuss the ethics of that with anyone who can consistently outshoot me by next September

I would be happy to post a picture if I could get Photobucket to work this morning...I do not have a lot of patience for that site

Hey DDave I'll post it for you if you want to send them to me. I really would like to see more pictures of sights as well. Just pm me if you want me to.

Doesnt look like you're getting many pics here, so here are a couple more, with the different types of trad bow sights I have in my tackle box.
Here they are head-on:
And here they are, from the side:
