A connector for adjustably mounting a limb of a compound archery bow to a riser of the bow has a connector, a first washer with a sliding surface and a guide surface complementary to and received against the sliding surface and permitting the first washer to pivot in substantially any direction relative to the connector. In assembly, a threaded shank of the connector is received in a threaded blind bore in the riser and a head of the connector traps the first washer against the limb. The connector may be loosened or backed out of the riser to permit adjustment of the orientation of the limb relative to t he riser to thereby adjust the draw weight of the bow. As the orientation of the limb is changed, the orientation of the first washer relative to the connector is likewise changed without changing the orientation of the connector to limit the bending or lateral forces applied to the connector and prevent it from being sheared or otherwise failing. Preferably, an insert which defines the guide surface is disposed within a recessed sliding surface of the washer between the washer and the head of the connector and is complementarily shaped to the recess to permit angular or pivotal movement of the first washer relative to the connector in substantially any direction.
