The top one is bending too much about 6 inch up from the handle and the rest of the limb is stiff.
The shorter bow is better but has a similar problem - still not enough bend in the outers.
I'd recommend for your next bow to make the handle the widest part and then taper in straight lines to the nock width. This will give you a pyramid bow and pyramids should have limbs with even bend all the way along eg. it should look like an arc of a circle.
This will be much easier for you to judge and will give you and evenly strained bow.
