I'd get that mole checked out by a doctor.  Looks odd.

Looks good, how does it shoot?

Congrats on your new bow.

Not sure from the pic, but the string might be upside down. The serving should extend down to prevent wear from your arm. Sorry if my mistake.

It looks very nice now you have a new reason to fling more arrows.

Nice bow! Love the wood grain  :)
An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

Those cedar limbs are stunning!

Sweet bow! The Cedar in the limbs is awesome, and the Bocote has great grain. Looks like you got yourself a good looking shooter there, Congrats!

Love the cedar limbs.  Is there much reflex/deflex  in the limbs? How do you like the grip?

thanks everyone, I have wanted one for several years and finally ordered one.  This bow couldn't be more perfect for me, I took it out for a little stump shooting yesterday, for about 4 hours, it put arrow after arrow into whatever I was looking at. It has a very comfortable and familiar feel to it almost immediatly, like it was made just for me... which it was.  heres a couple more pics of the limbs
   
 
"Is there much reflex/deflex in the limbs? How do you like the grip?"
it is slightly reflex/deflex, the grip is the most comfortable I have ever held on any bow. Very smooth shooting and quiet. The arrow actually makes more noise than the bow
