Very nice bow.  I’ve had the same thing.  My issue turned out to be more to do with the satin spray finish I was using that got too brittle I think and cracked under the stress.  Not sure what you finished or sealed up your bow with but that may in fact be what this is.  If the bow holds its tillered shape and balance in the limbs and it still shoots well then I would say it’s the finish that may have cracked.  If it’s a compression crumple or the like it will eventually become more noticeable and show in the balance of the limbs.  Hopefully it’s just the finish coat that has cracked a bit.  Nice lookin bow. 

Muskyman:
That’s a great looking bow Juan. Hope it turns out to be the finish like Dave said.

Juan Ant. Espinosa:
Thank you everybody! I´m very glad to see your answers and comments.
Weird dude with a bow, If they´re not a problem in that location, that´s a good new. They stay at that place for the moment.
This bow has a trapezoidal cross section to help the compression surface to stay healthy. Those marks are in the very edge.
It´s a little difficult to show with a photograpg how the valley is wider than the back in that bow.
Superdav, I have used some truoil for this one. Is the first time I use it, so I don´t really know the product. But it seems to me it is a noble product... Well, lets see how it continues. I want to shoot it a little more before giving it to a friend. And maybe if I can tomorrow, to make a little video showing some shoot on it.

Looks great! I'd love to see the filmed damage to the chrono! Its like a penetration test  :)

Where did you get the compression fractures at? Bottom limb?
