186,000 miles per second, not just a good idea, it's the law.

Not really sure what advice to give you other than the generic answer that everyone will probably give you...

Drill it again in the correct spot and fill in the extra hole with some wood filler.

1/2 inch bolts, 1/2 inch off,  basically i will have to make a slot. worried it will not stay and slowly drift down over time.

Get a 1/2" dowell and use it to plug the wrong hole, then drill your new one.
