On an overly reflexed stave, I get out my heat gun and take most of the reflex out, I may leave 2-3 inches.

Hope every one had a great Thanksgiving, headed to the cabin for a couple of day, got a few projects to work on and may do a little hunting, plan on boiling the Yot and cat head and also got about 50lbs of bear fat to render and maybe scrape some hides if the weather hold and they stay tight in the rack. Hope yall have a good one also.Life ids Good.  ;)

   Wood is not really suitable for highly reflexed bows. The reason is because a highly reflexed bow has to have very short working areas to maintain any kind of stability and wood will either break or take too much set if it doesn't have enough working limb. Look at the modern Asiatic bows, they have very short working areas. Your desing has to be able to tolerate the materials you are using.

     I would deflex the handle. It would be very unstable with all that reflex
What he says  ;D
Plus, with that much reflex, it will be hell's own job to brace it, and then it may end up under weight because it's been worked down so much just to brace it.
