I'd suggest you pre-shape the lams before glue up or the tips will be too thick. Getting the tip shaped ahead of glue up will prevent this. You can leave the handle area full width for now and this will give you a place to clamp the bow while tillering.

You'll probably just loose the belly wood at the tips but the tips are non-working anyway so it will be a cosmetic problem.
