    What ya think? Added 2 pics.

    I finally had the time to sand the limbs down (again) and give them a camo job. The paint was a tad wet In spots as you can see In the pics (shiny spots). The paint I used Is camo paint, It has a real dull color to It which Is perfect. I used brown for the base coat and black for the outline. I used a Maple leaf for the camo design. Edit: I added a few photo's at the end of the thread.

    Here we go with the thinking again...

    So, if you paint your bow to look like a food plot, won't deer come closer? LOL...

    Looks great Steve!

    Just strung It up now. Set the brace height too again. Was a little under 7.5, It's now about 7 3/4 where I like It.
