How would you all do this?

You may be right in regards to your design. Taper rate, limb profile, amount of relex , ect... all pays into it.
 In my design I have a more radical reflex and tip wedges stiffened it to much and made it bend more mid limb. With my reflex it worked better without tip wedges and gave a more elliptical bend witch increased the DL capability.  
Oh the joys of tweaking a new design!!!!!! Lol
Keep us updated with the progress

Critter, yeah, that's why I started this topic, to get as much opinion and thought as possible.

I can't tell you how much fun I've had with the part of your signature line that says "I went jackalope hunting but all I saw was does!"

When someone asks me what I went hunting for I throw that one out there.

I think I would study that full draw pic(it's the one that counts,eh?) and trap that bow where I wanted more bend. Mostly in the middle... Then do a DFC again....

There you go...   That is some good advice...  The only thing I would add to that is,  Take lots of notes of how that bow is now...  Shape the grip and get some arrow speeds before working the limb... And then compare speeds and shootabilty with new shaped limbs...  Once you do something to those limbs, they are gone forever...  So take those notes....

   And don't forget to share what you learned with us...

Alrighty then!

I'm going to proceed with the riser shaping and see where it's at and how it shoots and feels.

Already did, Roy.  Probably wouldn't have gotten this far without him.   :confused:
