Need a Limb Refinished

Anyone out there that someone can recommend to refinish a limb? It's brown and black so I would think it should be pretty simple.
Thanks!

Why not do it yourself. Get some 320 grit sandpaper and Helmsman spar urethane or Deft polyurethane at your local hardware store and have at it.

BD, I cannot believe you would mess it up. Orion has the recipe and it's a lot easier and less expensive than you would think.
I was a bit scared, but did my first on an old Howatt recurve I had paid 20 bucks for at a garage sale. When I finished, it was awesome and gave me the confidence to try something else.
The Helsman Spar urethane is only about 10 bucks a can at walmart.

Blackhawk-
The seam where the black and brown paint meet needs to be touched up, and then finish applied. I can guarantee you if I did it, it wouldn't look right.
Thansk for the suggestions!

If I were not doing it myself-and I would; first choice would be the bowyer and second would be the bow hospital.

The bowyer already tried to refinish it and it looks worse than when I sent it after waiting a year to get it back when I was told I would have it in 3-4 months. I have no confidence in the bowyer.
Thanks for the suggestions!

John from the Bow Hospital refinished the limb and did an awesome job at a great price!! It looks brand new and far superior to the work done by the original bowywer. John will definitely be getting more business from me in the future!
