I just purchased a Mathews Chill R and having difficulty mounting my ripcord rest on the bow. Is there a special thread for the bolt to mount the rest that goes with this bow? It seems like the bolt I used on my prior bow a Diamond is not taking at all when I am trying to mount it which I thought was universal.

Mounting holes for sights, rests and stabilizers were standardized a long time ago. The bolt you have should work fine. If it is a dipped bow(camo) you should have no problem. If it is painted(black) there might be a little overspray in the threads, and slowly running a tap down it will clean it up.
Do not force it as mentioned before because if you strip or damage the threads in the riser it is not a really easy fix.

Send your Chill R to me and I will check it out for you. Will have it back in just a few months good as new.
Threads on those bolts should be the same on all bows. There is probably a little paint residue or the threads on the bolt a dinged a little bit. Best advice I have seen here is DON'T FORCE it.
