Minor diversion - I have seen that these scopes have full FITA approval for use on recurve. Does it necessarily follow that they have GNAS approval?

A national organisation cannot overrule a decision made by an international organisation; id est, it is legal for FITA therefore it must be legal for GNAS.
I had a quick letter in AUK a couple issues back about it. Judges don't question its presence any more.

My Good Lady has a "Booster" from Merlin it can be used on either recurve or compound just change the thread holder, job done. The drawback is, you have to remove the whole lot unless you cn get a new clamp (On the riser) made, as Merlin do not sell them as spares. But it is a great sight t use.

Yeah, but is it a magnifying lens? Because that would be illegal for recurve...

No. The sight pin was taken from an old Arten. The threads for compound are not the same as recurve.

Got mine from Lancasters, $70 plus shipping.

0.02" fibre optic, probably should have gone for the 0.04".

I got a blue one direct from Leigh Cornish at Titan. It cost £46 and took two weeks to get round the world by regular air mail, but it was well worth it for me. Very well made, and stops me from overaiming. All my PBs were shot with it (though it's been a while since I got near my PBs... ). I wouldn't say the Titan is for everyone -- it's probably best to make yourself a prototype so you can try before you buy.
