I use the Alaska Bowhunting sleeves. Much like a a spandex material. They're dead quiet on my recurve, but seem to have a 'slap' on my longbow. That said, I'll continue to use them on the long bow for turkeys. Picked them up from 3 Rivers.

I'm going to try the black  hockey tape mentioned on the other thread for turkey. Never cared for he socks getting hung up in thickets and brush. Which is why I got a matte hunting finish.

If you're just wanting to camo the back of the limbs, take a look at onestringer.com and their Limbsations...I got a set for my NM Classic and really like them.  They are a sponsor here.
