Anyone tried a red dot sight on a compound bow?

Ive been using a red dot mounted on a slingshot and its very accurate. I was thinking of trying one on a compound. A mixture of this rest http://cgi.ebay.ie/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130356230828&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT and this sight…

Obviously highly illegal in competition target archery, but I don't reckon it would be much more accurate than the normal scope sights. I would guess the laser dot would be moving around like tickle-me-Elmo on the target as at full draw there is quite a lot of movement in the bow hand relative to a rifle.

Just my thoughts.
