ABSTRACT:
A compound bow includes a single, integrated cam assembly supported by the bow handle and having separate, adjacent cam elements receiving string cable segments and power cable segments from the bow limb tips. All the cam elements are fixedly disposed relative one another and are mounted for arcuate displacement as a unit. The plurality of cam elements and attendant bow structure are disposed in a manner resulting in shortened limb tip travel for a given bowstring displacement. The draw length of the bow is readily altered without dismantling the bow cable components and without any tools by removing and relocating end portions of the power cables in selected ones of a plurality of retainer pockets in the cable assembly and further draw length modification is obtainable, without changing the bow peak draw weight, through interchangable power cable cams.
