ABSTRACT:
A compound archery bow with apparatus for releasing the tension on the bowstring and buss cables when it is desired to replace or adjust the bowstring, buss cables, or eccentrics, includes posts or hooks mounted on each limb of the bow on a portion thereof which is displaced toward the other limb as the bow is drawn, and over which the end of a length of holding material may be secured. It is preferred that such posts or hooks be provided as part of the normally present V-groove washer assemblies. The invention includes the method for releasing the tension on the bowstring and buss cables by providing the above indicated posts or hooks, drawing the bow, securing the ends of a length of holding material to the posts or hooks so that the holding material extends between them and wherein the length of the holding material between the posts or hooks is less than the distance between such posts or hooks in undrawn or braced position, and moving the bowstring back to undrawn position so that the holding means becomes taut and tension is released from the bowstring and buss cables.
