Today I received my Chastain Wapiti back from Big Jim's Dipping operation.  This is Predator Fall Brown Deception.

After dipping the bow is smoother, faster, more quiet, and Left-handed -- kidding of course but I do like the look!

I also had a Bear B Mag riser dipped in the same pattern.

It looks cool Roy and for sure an efficent camo,I don't know what was the previous look to tell if you did good.

Thanks Felix.

Here's what I started with. Of course none of the critters I encounter will be any more or less fooled by the two different looks but the Predator patterns are my favorite.


cacciatore

Yes Roy,now I remember that Desert camo,for sure the camo dip are much more dull and less reflective than our fancy woods risers and limbs.In any case I think your is anice addiction to your groving bow arsenal.

That looks amazing! Much better then the laminated wood on the before photos IMO.

I also had a Bob Lee dipped by Jim which was also a plain Jayne laminated wood.

Very nice camo.

If I was in market for a camo dip, I now know exactly where to go. Not suprising to receive something from Big Jim that is less than spectacular.

Roy,
I got my Wapiti Recurve out again after 2 years and it still does the same as your arrows at the turkey target....  :D  
We need to meet someday and I'll etyou try some other gems...

That first pic really shows the effectiveness of that pattern.  I have to really look hard to see the limbs and make out the shape of a bow.  Very nice!!

Very nice looking dip job on the bow. I might loose it if I laid it down in the woods.

Quieter? Why do you think?

PS: That is one dead turkey! Good shooting.

John,
I was just kidding about the list of attributes beyond the appearance.  I guess Big Jim rubbed off on me. He told me he could "sight the bow in for me" before he sent it back. I thought that was hilarious!

This is the quietest bow I own though, with or without the camo of course.  This bow is so easy to draw I had to measure the draw weight again tonight. Because of the limb tips the bow just feels different than my other bows.

I like the Predator camo. However, I'll have to say I'm a tad worried that the pattern I picked might have a bit too much white or ivory in it. I'm hoping it doesn't "shine" in a turkey blind.  I know it will blend nicely with the limbs of trees and the sky though if I deer hunt with it.

I have been wanting to have a bow done for quite sometime now! That just looks awesome right there!!!

Any pics of the B riser? Limbs too by chance?
