Yea, no bind sight hurts, but not strictly necessary to race. I raced on my monk all the time.
As for proc rates, I just did some very half-assed testing and I was procing 30-40% of the time with Weighted Axe, 0% haste (unequiped my items) and 255 dex. To napkin math it, I'm guessing there's a linear relationship with delay and 10 delay is something like 60 swings a minute. So Weighted Axe clocks in at an expected 3 swing a minute, therefore 33% chance of proc per arrow. Earthshaker at 70 delay would be a around a 14% chance. Assuming the above holds, trading some range for a > 2x chance of instant proc seems reasonable.
Sorry to derail the thread, but another thought... Sky Darkener + Weighted Axe could enable SK quadding at 35. Should be over 4 procs a minute and the arrows themselves doing decent damage due to the damage bonus.
Of course, my assumptions might not hold, but it's fun to theory quest.
