Title: **Camo Bows Pictures?**
Post by: Mike Burch on July 24, 2008, 01:33:00 PM
I have an older Acadian Woods Tree Stick one piece that is in need of refinishing. I'm not real crazy over the woods in it, so I was thinking about either doing a home made camo job on it or sending it off to have it camo dipped, probley at Sipsey River.

I would love to see some pictures of your home made camo jobs or the bows that has been camo dipped, to help with pattern ideas.

Thanks, Mike     :campfire:

Where did you get your regular limb bolts? Those look a little nicer than the standard thumb bolts that come with the bow.

I did a camo job on my Stallion Riser but I don't have any good pics. I'm thinking about re-doing it along with the limbs.

I have an old browning that is backed with saddle cloth. It is absolutely SILENT...

If you shout silence is it realy quiet?

Some pretty interesting bows here.

In my mind the old home made and bowyer made spray paint jobs look better to me compared to the modern dipped examples.

Not as purdy as some of the others, but it's a custom Krylon job.  Started out taping up sections, lost interest in the technique and just sprayed the darn thing.  (http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m430/str8jct/100_0623.jpg)[/IMG]
