[QUOTE="Bowhunter1661, post: 395924, member: 9937"] Though I have not had this exact issue. I have had a bow cap that I couldn't access. I would cut the heads off your screws, then if the front cap is aluminum, Rivnut it and use 1/4-20 screws or bolts. This is what is did, it worked extremely well. Just DO NOT buy the cheap rivnuts that don't have knurling on them. The smooth rivnuts will spin when you tighten your screws down. The knurled ones will "bite" into the material. [/QUOTE]
