Sebastien Flute Pro Carbon sight

I intend to upgrade my sight in due time.. my friends have recommended the well-known Shibuya ultima sights.. but i don't have that much cash to purchase them.. Does anyone have reviews for the SF pro carbon sight..?

The only issue i've had with mine (this is the expensive SF one right?) is that the spring holding the pins vertical adjustment down doesnt seem quite tight enough. A couple of times the sight has risen up a little whilst shooting.

Other than that its been fine!

I haven't had any experience of the SF sight, but the Shibuya Dual Click is a good alternative to the Ultima.

Same high quality, just different.

I've used the SF Pro for the year and would recommend it wholeheartedly.

I've had no probs with mine, it's done everything I could ask of it and it holds the sight pin exactly where it's set; without creep.

I wouldn't swap mine for a Shibuya. 'Nuff said.

I love my SF pro. Smoother than a silk worms silk sac and solid as a rock. Excellent piece of kit

tel has completed all 6 rounds of either the Archery Interchange VGP or Winter League
WL Ranking: Division 2, 1st Place
SL Ranking: Division 2, 1st Place

I only had one issue with mine - though to be honest I could have prevented it. The adjustment was very stiff to start with but rather than try to improve it I accepted it as normal and continued to force it, eventually stripping one side of the sight pin retaining thread. Only then did I decide to apply a squirt of silicon lubricant and discovered the "silk worms silk sac" that it should have been all along.
