so while out shooting at the usery trail range today, i noticed how horribly shiney my gear is :mad: ..the only thing that didnt glint or glimmer was my kwikee kwiver...even my arrows were super shiney :banghead: . the bow limbs are black but i was planning on using some limbsations in canebreak or copperhead, and paint the belly of the limbs an earth tone. but im not sure how to cure the glistening arrows...any help or advice for curing the glimmer epidemic would wonderful :)
what kind of arrows?
green scouring pad works for me
the arrows are beman ics hunters (bowhunter is what they are called now i think) but they are plain black and the bow limbs are black glassed on both the belly and back.
I have killed several deer with a white ILF riser with skulls on it and a set of silver limbs, as long as the glint does not glare in the animals eye, not harder to be picked off than normal. Shawn
I have shot those for many years. I don't think I ever spooked a deer because of them, but maybe I did and just don't know it.
I can recommend "Plasti Dip" a multi-purpose rubber coating.
It is easy to apply as it's in a spray on can.
It will not harm your bow and is easy to remove when you're ready to take it off.
I use the matte black.
It works well on other pieces of my hunting equipment as well...like my Waldrop Pac Seat. as it softens the sound when I happen to knock the metal frame against trees or brush.
God bless,Mudd
