How to install a clicker
« on: January 21, 2009, 07:29:00 PM »
What is the best way to install a clicker so it can be removed without leaving marks on the bow or ruining the bow finish?  Thanks

Send a message to bowwalker, he's put clickers on and taken them off hundreds of times  :D

Just make sure you do not drill your holes any deeper than 1/8"... You should be fine then!

I see people sticking them on with some type of adhesive pad all the time.

3M exterior grade mounting tape works very well. It's about $5/roll at most hardware stores.

How do you get the tape off? Just use a bit of heat?

I reed to use velcro and you can move it from bow to bow with just the new backing on each bow. The tape on the back would be able to come off with your finger rubing itwhen you want to remove it all together.

Greg,

You can rub it off with your thumb, or use a light solvent like Goo-Gone.

Set it up high on the limb. This keeps the string shorter (less slap). Then cover the metal part with Dr Schoals mole skin it silences the whole thing. If the click is to loud put Mole skin on the metal tang that clicks. I started out with one, good for consitency. Good Luck

Double sided tape .. a little alcohol (on the tape, not to drink) to remove.
