Be cautious if you think you may ever want to return the bow to its natural finish. Some years ago, I used the camo paints that are supposed to be easy to remove, but when I used the paint remover, it did not work. I still don't have all the paint off that bow.

I use 3-4 colors of krylon. Spray one light coat let dry. Then get 3 plastic lids (butter dish ect) spray the other colors 1 in each lid. Now take plastic bags that you get at the grocery store,  wadd them up in your hand and tap them onto the lid with the paint. Now just tap on bow in a random order with all the colors. I have done all of my waterfowel guns and a hand full of bows. Very happy with all. term

Got a pic of that finish, Term? Sounds neat.

Here is last years hunting bow, it had black glass, which I just don't like. So I painted just the limb faces......

Lookin good!  although I'm a snakeskin and exotic wood nut, I appreciate a good camo hunting bow as much as any.  Taking a weathered, tried and true camo bow into the woods is like eating comfort food when you dont feel well. Just damn feels good and right!
