摘要 |
The invention relates to an archery bow having a handle with a longitudinal axis and first and second handle ends. The bow also has an upper limb and a lower limb extending generally in a direction along the longitudinal axis. Each limb has first and second edges defining a limb width, a limb thickness, a proximal end, a distal end, and a working region between the proximal and distal ends of each limb. The first and second handle ends are attached to each limb at the respective proximal end of each limb. The proximal end of each limb has a proximal width and the distal end of each limb has a distal width. Each limb further has a concave surface extending generally between the first and second edges. Each concave surface has an opening and first and second transition points located at opposing sides of the opening of the concave surface. There is a transverse width defined by a distance between the transition points, which transverse width is substantially unchanged when the bow is drawn to a full draw position as compared to when the bow is in an undrawn position. The concave surface(s) can instead be a convex surface(s) in various forms of the present invention.
