Title: Hunting with white glass limbs
Post by: WVbowhunter on May 16, 2023, 10:50:56 AM: Has anyone done it with success? Or I'm assuming the normal move would be to put camo limb sleevs over them?

I haven't hunted with it yet.

So true .
Love the classic look of the white glass. Go for it. Don't have a white bow but I'll have white arrows to bring to the woods for this fall
:bigsmyl: Hopefully get to see a couple turn red!

After doing some hunting I began to think of it giving me away. But, after hunting with my brother, he said he couldn't notice it, that afternoon shot a Doe. No issue here.
