We have a sponsor camodip.net that has had rave reviews.  Check them out.

Also do a search on camo dip in the subject and you will get three pages of results to play with.

Yep, camodip does an awesome job. I've had 2 bows done and my buddy has had one done. Excellent service and product. The "Ultimate Camo" is a fantastic pattern by the way!

I just had Billy dip a set of Bear limbs in Predator brown.  I haven't received them back yet but he sent me a photo of them and they look great.  I have a set of Black Widow limbs that I am thinking about getting dipped in Predator gray.   Jim

Ryan, If you think there is any chance you might ever want to sell or trade your bow, I would give the camo dipping serious thought.  I had my bow (Brackenbury Quest) dipped a couple years back before Billy Shipp owned the company. The finished product was very nice, but I have since tried to sell the bow at a rock bottom price and the camo dip seems to be a big hang up with a lot of potential buyers.  I have had several ask if the camo dip could be removed.  I corresponded with Billy about whether it was doable or not.  The answer I got was that it might be possible, but would be a major undertaking to get all the dip and primer off, and not very practical. Didn't recommend it. I think I would have had the bow sold by now if it weren't dipped.  I'll probably end up keeping the bow because it looks nice to me and I'm not going to give it away.

Thinking about doing one in the Predator green myself, that's sweet looking.

I had Billy dip a Dalla riser a few weeks ago and it turned out great. Do a search on "film dip resource" and you will find my post with some photos.
