Hello Eddie,
As to what Jeff has said, I would like to donate.
I visit almost every day to see the things that are happening.
It is a great place to see and meet, learn and trade with a vast number of people from all around Australia.
Over the years I have learnt so much.
Thanks. Bill

Re: AMS Bowfishing Reel Bracket
Hello Matt.
Do you have a picture of the bracket without the rubber band tied around.
As for the thread-tap, I'm sure I could help you out with one.
Or if the bracket is made of steel, have the threaded nuts silver-soldered on the back.
Give it some thought.
Cheers. Bill.

They are recorded in the "American Broadheads Collectors Club" but they don't have registered numbers against them.
There needs to be a couple more found and measured, so that they can be recorded and called Wheller built heads.
