thank's guy's, the camo is really easy to do, basically just take some turkey tail feathers, use the small one's ya can't fletch and use the tip to drag, pat and such to get the effect, Bub

That is a great save. I'm with everyone else, the camo is working. If I did'nt know the story I would think it was a commercially made bow. Nicley done.  Danny
