In case anyone needs to camo a bow easily, but not in any way permanent... Here is what Camo Form looks like. I was going to use VetRap from the farm store, but saw this and got it. I don't have to try to paint/marker the VetRap now, but I may switch to some white wrap and add some black marker pattern for this winter.
This is a 1964 Hoyt Pro Custom that has white fiberglass on back and belly. Shots were at 20yd at last light yesterday (I'm not the best, but it'll kill deer inside 20yd)...so, I'd say performance was not affected.

I also added a few extra wraps over the string loop on the lower tip. This keeps the loop in place when unstrung (so I can now use my string keeper) and it acts as a tip protector when I am sitting and rest it on the ground.
I suppose one could also insert some leaves, pinched in between layers, to give it a 3D affect.
Thanks for the advice. I noticed my Super Kodiak reflects a lot of sunlight. I mean blinding reflection. Never noticed a deer bolt from it, but I was just wondering what to camo it with w/o it being permanent. Now I know.
Where did you get it?

Off the shelf at Cabelas, in the gun section by the slings and such. The ladies in the Archery Dept said they didn't carry it...I was on my way out and stopped over there just to check since I've seen people use it on rifles.
The stuff I found is the McNett branded stuff. Supposed to be reusable as well.
I was just going to use VetRap, like I said, if I hadn't found this. VetRap can be had at any farm store (by the horse stuff usually) for a $3 per roll.
They have camo vet wrap at my local vet supply store. Kids washable finger paint makes good camo too
