Quiver inserts
« on: September 03, 2008, 11:21:00 PM »
I have a bow with 2 screws to hold in the quiver bracket. Rather than fill the holes, I was going to put in quiver bushings. The ones I have look like they will require larger holes which I am reluctant to drill. Are there any smaller diameter bushings available?

The ones I have came from 3 Rivers.

They take a 21/64 bit.  There is a lip on them that stays above the surface of the wood, but you could counter sink them to make them flush.

Once the holes are drilled you screw them in all the way with a flat bladed screwdriver.  Once all the way down, you screw in the bolt all the way.  The bolt goes in easy until you hit bottom.  Once it bottems out, screw in hard.  This spreads the bottom of the insert and it bites into the wood.  It is a very easy installation, and looks like a factory insert when it is  done.

Lots more attractive than just a hole drilled.

Two words of caution.  I put some on a Diamond Annivershery Black Widow.  I was not paying attention and drilled one hole all the way through the riser.  Another thing to watch is when drilling the holes make sure they are absolutely straight.  If not, the insert ends up a bit crooked.

Thanks, I have those kind. They do look good. I thought about drilling thru the riser by mistake. Don't want to do this when drinking! LOL
