DANG! that is a freakingly heavy bow. I'm not gonna ask for a full draw profile  >:D
Can you provide specs (width, thickness, ...) too?

I guess only yew (and maybe osage) can tolerate such wood abuse (with those dimensions) without taking excessive set. Maybe that belly toasting leveled the playing field a bit for other wood specs, but this is pretty off the mark.
Do you have anyone to actually shoot it?

Wow!!! That's a lovely piece of timber right there....the fact you've made a bow out of it as well is quite frankly "Yabba-Dabba-Doo" as far as I'm concerned  ;D Just love the clear contrast between the creamy sap and dark heart woods....of course, the fact that its a bit of a monster certainly helps with this too!  :o
