Far more certain  to succeed if you reduce only the width. 30 percent narrower should put you at about 35#.

Reducing the width is a great way to reduce draw weighr, but only if the bend radius isnt over stressing the limb. Considering the ser this bow took, its safe to say thickness reduction would decrease bending stresses, allowing the draw weight to match the bow width more. That combination should increase bow speed and efficiency.
Tread softly and carry a bent stick.
