Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to a bow and methods thereof. In exemplary embodiments, a bow having a centrepiece may include a limb; a string; a string pulley mounted on an end portion of the limb, the string pulley for accommodating the string; a cable pulley connected to the string pulley, the cable pulley adapted to accommodate compensating cables; a subassembly mounted in a rotatable manner, the subassembly comprising the string pulley and cable pulley; and a deflecting stop adapted to limit the deflection of the string, the deflecting stop adapted to strike against a front face of the limb when the string is deflected, the deflecting stop being sufficiently rigid to stop further deflection of the string when the deflecting stop strikes against the front face of the limb.

Abstract: Bow having a centerpiece, two flexurally elastic limbs, a string, at least one string pulley, mounted in one end of a limb and intended for accommodating the string, and at least two cable pulleys, connected rigidly to the string pulley and intended for accommodating and guiding compensating cables, and in each case at least one cable pulley is arranged on both sides of the string pulley, and the subassembly made up of the string pulley and cable pulleys is mounted in a rotatable manner in each case, and at least one deflecting stop is present for the purpose of limiting the deflection of the string, and this deflecting stop, when the string is deflected, strikes against a limb or against a stop element connected rigidly to the limb.
