No idea, but I've done that before with spray paint.

I'm not an expert but the one factory camo Kodiak had the decals applied OVER the camo job and the details written on the camo too. Here is what the bow looked like.

I have three factory camo Bear bows. Two Bear Kodiak Takedowns and a Bear Grizzly and the silk screening is done over the camo on all three. And none of my three have the coin painted over. I have been shooting Bear bows since 1969 and I've never seen that fern pattern on a Bear bow before. Not saying it isn't factory, just I never seen it before.

I have a factory camo KH and it looks like Reddogge's picture. I'll leave it to the many Bear experts here to say if there were ever any fern patterns applied!

They wouldn't have painted over the coin like that. Other than that it looks pretty sweet. Be a great hunting bow!!!!!

I've never seen a factory Bear camo job without silkscreens on the camo.

I have seen them with silkscreens both under and over, but never without them over.
