Pappy:
I worry a lot more about the smell of the finish that if they can see it or not.  :)

no I dont think the bright yellow scares the deer,, anymore than a natural white limb in the forest,,
that being said,,,, I dont think it hurts to put a snake skin or more neutral finish on a bow,

Dakota Kid:
Don't deer see UV shades better than we do?  I would think a UV receptive wood like BL or osage would be more noticeable especially when fresh. I don't think the wood alone would spook a deer, but it would make any movement of the bow more noticeable if the UV did stand out.
