Stan Gibbs used screw eyes on his famous 3 hook darters, so maybe yours will be OK provided the wood you used isn't too soft.

I dabbled with hancarves a while back and hit this same hurdle and fell on my face. I bet the type of drill bit is crucial for accuracy. Try one specifically forvdrilling end grain. Fuller and Morris Wood Tool make them.

Bit size for hangers? Does it matter if you will be filling the hole with epoxy putty?
