Be aware of the profile of the SF sight bar, it's opposite to almost every other sight, in most cases that doesn't matter but if you are using one of those clickers that fit onto the sight arm it won't fit onto this sight.
I have one of these. The clicks are very positive and repeatable. A very good "no-fuss" sight. It came with a simple pin in a circle sight and I replaced it with an $18 (USD), hooded insert sight I got off Ebay; very much like the one he's got in the video.
Im been using Decut Naha. Working fine for 4 month. Now the whole sight is falling appart. I got around dozen tiny 3mm set screws and all of them are dropping out onto the floor as i practice. Last night i was so frustrated and pissed off i superglued all 14, 3mm set screws. For 2019 summer i think i buy WS600 and stop having isssues with the sight. Last 3 trainings sessions i spent majority of the time fiddling with Decut Naha instead of practice my archery form. Such a waste of time. If Decut have had german/japanese machining tolerances in the setscrews and threads this would not have happen. But due to poor machined threads and screw i forced to throw the sight in the garbage can for recycle -.- Thanks for a nice review. It realy helps me in deciding how to curb the problem with poor manufactured sights.
I recently got the WS600. I've only been shooting for 9 months but I originally had a Cartel X-Pert sight as that came with the bundle I bought. I got really annoyed with it's 4 screws that would come loose some times. Also the sight pin adjustment was horrible. I got a new WS600 for $200 AUD from another club member who'd ordered the RH version by mistake. I'm really impressed with it. It's simple but with plenty of adjustments and it just feels like a higher quality product. I had been looking at the Ultima RCII but for $200 I couldn't go past the WS600. Not regretting it so far. Probably get one for my daughter too as I like mine so much. Probably change the default sight pin down the road as my Cartel had a optic pin which I really liked.
I had the ww sight, was very rigid, only the Windage knob ended up being a bit loose. Couldn't find a way to tighten it again which gave a vibration post shot.
Love the video! I was wondering if you could do a review in the SF Velocity Pro Carbon on a compound bow? I'm building an economical (an oxymoron in archery) multi-purpose bow out of a Hoyt Nitrum 34, and was thinking it would make great target/3d scope mount as it has the 10/32 compatibility. Also, a member of Canada's Olympic recurve team recommended SF for "Bang for the Buck", with the added "Loctite is cheap". Any thoughts on using the Win&Win or SF card on Pro on a compound?
Chang Hye Jin used a Shibuya at Rio, but Choi Misun used the WS600 and she is pretty damn good. .
Very nice explanation on the merits of the different sights! Thanks!
Hey, I just ordered the SF velocity end of last week and am waiting for it to be delivered. So timing of your video is perfect! Thanks Steve! 👍🏼

Nail polish on the screw heads will stop the screws from coming loose.

Thank you for another great review. I wish you were in the US so I could order from you.
Love the video!

This 600 is a great site
Here, where I live, perhaps 95% of recurve archers use Shibuya Ultima RC sights. How does that compare to those sights on this video?
Can you use these on compound bows?
No the thread is 8/32 for compound you need 10/32. Win and Win male three sights suitable for Compound SP-100,SP200,SPC-300
