A tip wedge is a fine tapered insert in the tip of the limb meant to stiffen and decrease the bend of the tip.  On your bow it would cause the tips to bend less and therefore would be further forward at full draw.  That would decrease the string angle and would mitigate stack. 

Here's a picture of a limb tip wedge.  It's the dark line in the core.

Shredd you're trying to get me in trouble. Was hard enough to get her to take a decent full draw pic Haha.

Monterey,  thanks for the explanation. The tip wedge seems a little advanced for my skill set at this point in time. But I do appreciate the explanation and tip.

No skill involved, just another lam.  All in all, I think you have a working bow there.
