I have two Equinox bows....a 2008 and the new 2009....and yes, there is a signifigant difference in the quality of the camo between the two.

The 2008 has a very crisp patttern with very good colour definition, especially in the browns. The 2009 has an overall greenish cast and lacks the definition of the 08.

I'm happy with the performance of the 09, don't get me wrong...but I have to say that when I see them side-by-side I strongly prefer the looks of the 08.

I don't know what exactly changed, but yes...there definitely was one.

If you can't set a good example, at least serve as a horrible warning.
