ABSTRACT:
A compound bow having a center portion with a handle formed thereon, a a lower limb and an upper limb connected to the center portion and eccentrically mounted bow string pulleys mounted at the outer ends of each of the limbs for supporting a bow string. Bow string holders are supported by each of the eccentrically mounted pulleys with each of the bow string holders having a shaft that is connected at its outer end through a cable to one of the pulleys. At least a pair of bow string support members extend from either side of the shaft with the bow string support members being positioned at the inner end of the shaft. Each of the support members includes an upwardly extending outer end which is shaped and positioned to maintain a bow string between the outer end and the shaft. Thus, the end of a bow string may be readily connected to a bow string holder by passing a closed loop at the end of the bow string over one of the support members, then under the bow string holder, and then over the other of the support members.
