The buffalo is drilled for a stabilizer but not for sights. Also you have to use the hoyt 2 piece quiver.

To clarify what macksdad said, the Buffalo doesn't have the typical 2 holes for a sight or quiver like alot of metal risers it has specific holes just for a 2 piece quiver at the top and bottom of the riser like this:

You have to use a matching triangular studded quiver , made by Hoyt,Fuse or a couple others. Or just use the studs and make your own like I did with this EFA quiver, making it a 1pc:

And this is how I use my stabilizer hole for my Epic cam:

Thanks for the info.  Just got my Buffalo put together today and shot it a bit and was wondering about some of the holes.

Can you use the great northern quiver that goes on the limbbolts with it

It doesn't have standard limb bolts that you can slide the mount on or any limb bolt quiver for that matter. Got to use a 2pc I guess. The only thing you could try is mounting the brackets to the holes above the limb bolts, just not sure if it would affect the performance of the bowl, worth a try though.
