A dual-cam archery bow with simultaneous power cable take-up and let-out journals. Each cam has power cable journals located on opposite sides of the draw string journal, where at least one of power cable journals is a helical journal.

A method of engaging an arrow with an anti-dry fire system on a crossbow and an arrow assembly for crossbow that engages the anti-dry fire system behind the draw string. Matched weight arrows having lighted and non-lighted nocks are also disclosed.

A bow has an arrow quiver further attached to a bowfishing bow or reel. The arrow quiver provides a clip that advantageously holds at least one arrow shaft along the bowfishing riser without interference with the line during use and may further hold one or more replacement tips and tools commonly used during the course of bowfishing. The replacement tips are stored to be easily accessible with the sharp points of the tips directed away from the user to avoid injury. Further, small hand tools, such as Allen wrenches or hex keys, are stored on the quiver in a manner which improves flexibility of the arrow clip.

In some embodiments, a compound bow comprises a frame, a first limb supported by the frame and a second limb supported by the frame. The first limb supports a first rotatable member, and the first rotatable member comprises a cam. The compound bow further comprises a second rotatable member, a first pulley and a second pulley. A power cable is in communication with the cam. A bowstring contacts the first rotatable member, the second rotatable member, the first pulley and the second pulley. In some embodiments, the first pulley is supported by the first limb.

An archery release aid mount includes an attachment mechanism configured to rigidly attach the archery release aid to a bow. A securing device is configured to receive an archery release aid. The securing device includes a securing device that upon the archery release aid mount receiving the archery release aid, holds the archery release aid securely, and that is configured to allow a user to without tools remove the archery release aid from the archery release aid mount when the user wants to use the archery release aid during archery.

The bow-mounted quiver is a removable attachment for a conventional archery bow. The bow-mounted quiver includes a mounting plate adapted for releasable mounting on the archery bow, an arm, and a U-shaped retaining member. The arm has first and second arm portions. A first end of the first arm portion is pivotally attached to the mounting plate, and a second end of the first arm portion is pivotally attached to a first end of the second arm portion. The second arm portion may have an adjustable length. The U-shaped retaining member has a central portion and a pair of free ends. The central portion is pivotally attached to a second end of the second arm portion, and each of the free ends defines a recess for releasably retaining a shaft of an arrow.

A quiver arrow vanes guards is hereby presented, the quiver comprising an arrow nock receiving portion with a nock receiver portion disposed generally orthogonal to a longitudinal direction, the nock receiver portion being sized and designed to receive therein a plurality of arrows by accommodating the nock end of each arrow, the nock receiver portion including a pair of arrow vanes guards disposed on opposed orthogonal and distal sides of the arrow nock receiving portion for protecting vanes of orthogonal distalmost arrows housed in the quiver, the arrow vanes guards are progressively proximally retracting, from orthogonal distal edges of the arrow nock receiver portion, longitudinally in the direction of the arrow head receiving portion generally along the orthogonal distal edges and the back side of the quiver to substantially match a profile of arrow's vanes.

Systems and methods directed to archery bow accessories include a panel to be mounted on an archery bow, forward of the archery bow limbs, to provide stabilization, silencing, and/or concealment. The panel may be sufficiently rigid to support all or some of the weight of the archery bow against a support structure, such as the ground. The panel may also be sufficiently structurally sound to quiver arrows and to support other optional features, such as aiming devices. Silencing functionality of the panel may be enhanced by usage of or addition of sound absorbing materials, such as cork, foam, rubber, honeycomb structures, or combinations thereof.
