Abstract
A copound bow having low-rotation cams includes an improved anchor member adapted to releasably attach one end of both a bowstring and tension cable to each cam. The cams are formed with a main body or lobe joined to a secondary body or lobe and configured to provide an elongated throat therebetween with a planar cable/bowstring track or groove about the cam periphery. The opposed walls of the cam throat are configured to transversely or laterally receive the anchor member while precluding any longitudinal or radial displacement thereof as tension is applied to the cam member by the engaging ends of the bowstring and tension cable.
