Is it ok to drill?

I was thinking about taking my longbow to a bowyer to have the riser drilled so I could install my insane archery camera mount.. can you drill on a laminated bow? Or is this not a good idea?

www.insanearchery.com you can check out their small mount here that holds the kodak playsport..

 

Wouldn't the bowyer be better equipped to answer that?

 

I wouldn't drill a trad bow. Unless it came with a stabilizer insert I'd leave it alone. But that's just me. I don't think it would hurt the bow, physically. It might diminish its overall value.

It can be done but I don't know much about It. Give Burnie a PM on here as he should have some Info for ya.

 

I thought I would give the guys here a chance to chime in..see if its something someone else might have experience with.

 

Just my personal thoughts but I wouldn't do it to my bow!

 

I'd use this before drilling....if the threads fit

That's a great product for traditional bows!!! Hey shed, this should work perfect with the InsaneArchery mount! This one would also work. All you would need is a bolt - http://www.3riversarchery.com/Bow+A...+Mount+Adapter_c46_s208_p0_i5548_product.html
