Thank you, Cacciatore.

I think anyone who would dip a beautiful recuve bow with that heinous camo, should be made to run through a field of multi-flora rose, naked as a jaybird.  Even thinking to do that should be a penalized in some manner.  That camo stuff is flat ugly....there are no redeeming features to it.  None.    

Did I mention that I don't care for camo dipping?
However....if you want your beautiful Morrison, to look like any other camo dipped bow, with no character of it's own, by all means do it.    :knothead:    :banghead:

Bows are meant to be hunted and shot, not worshiped like some Demi-god.

If you will beleaguered more efficient, or atleast think you will go for it.

But my Graybark PSA will never get threatened with a dip.

I almost dipped my last compound in Predator, but that is different...

"Bows are meant to be hunted and shot, not worshiped like some Demi-god."

Well first of all, wanting a bow to be  aesthetically pleasing is a far cry from worshiping it.  

Then again, to dip it in some foul stew, of run-together colors, is about as aesthetically pleasing as a bucket of duck fat, and no way enhances it's "ability to be hunted and shot."

I suppose we all have our views as to what constitutes a hunting bow....weapon.  I would like to see what your spouse would say if you tried to get the brand new family car dipped in Mossy Oak 8^).  I'm sure some of you would think it was cool, though.

I disagree with Lonewolf73 when he says camo bows do not sell well. I think he refers to those that are left hand over 60# that are camo dipped.
I had one bow on my Sipsey River rack for 18 months, no sell. Then I camo dipped it and sold it at the first show. Camo dipping is not for everyone, but for many, they love it.

If dipping a bow makes it more astetically pleasing to the only one that matters, then so be it.

I guess I don't agree with telling another man that his chosen tool of the trade is unworthy becase it has camo on it.

More power to those that do.

Lance Coleman drives Bill Howland of Brackenbury Bows crazy because as soon as he gets one of Bill's creations (Quest)he covers it in camo spay paint.
I camo dipped my Quest but I picked it up used and it needed to be refinished, dipping was cheaper.

I had a Dakota dipped in burl camo, and liked it real well. I sold it to another guy so I could finance something else. That guy did remove the dip. I think he used paint stripper to take it off, and then re-sprayed.
If it's in your way, move it.
