Sinew and hide strings may be seriously affected by water. [4] The author of Arab Archery suggests the hide of a young, emaciated camel. [5]
The binary cam is a design for the pulley system of a compound bow. Craig Yehle, director of research and development at Bowtech Archery, received a patent [1] for the design on December 11, 2007. Bowtech started equipping its bows with the new cam design in the 2005 model year. [2] [3]
