I would highly recommend Don Ward or "BowDoc" as he is known on this and other sites. I've seen his work and have never heard any complaints. Believe he is out of the Seattle, Washington area.
Others on this site have used him, so you should be able to get contact info.

I have had Don refinish four bows (62 Kodiak, 59 Kodiak, 59 Kodiak Special, 67 Super K) over the years and his work is superb.  If anyone can make a silk purse out of a sow's ear, Don can.
