Couldnt find much by way of Blaze orange camo so I spent a spare 15minutes (cough) and made my own :D using fabric paint.

Steve,

Looks good mate, well done...!

Will you be wearing the hat around town or is it just for hunting...??? :mrgreen:

Cheers Guy
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is no where as important as being able to place it in the correct spot....!

hmm not so sure about this.. the wearer might be mistaken for a Bengal Tiger :)
Anyway I think that orange clashes with my hivis shirt.

Very perty Stevie.
Perhaps a pairof camo chaps and a pair of felt temple boots with pointed toes and bells.
We could call you Kink er bell.

How about some fluffy quiver liners?

Between your bright blaze orange hand painted hat, my very bright pink hand dyed custom bowbag and Kimall's really really bright pink "barred" feathers, no-one can ever say we are DULL.... :lol:

cheers
