Well I decided to make my one piece Robertson Mystical into a 2 piece ....I ordered a bow latch from Ace but it does not come with screws. Where can I find titanium or other suitable screws to do the install? Also will any epoxy work to put in the screw holes?
Thanks Mike

Call Bob and talk with him. He is a really nice guy and will tell you what to do there
. Although I would have though screws would have been part of it. Maybe they forgot to add them?

The screws do not come with it. Steve Turray and we use I believe it is a #10 Machine screw. You will need to determine the length you want by measuring the depth of riser, where you are installing.

I used a #10 stainless steel and I believe it was 1 1/4" long .

Thanks for the replies fellas..
A tradganger (delongbows) near me is helping me with the screws and some info on the conversion. Can't thank him enough.
