  • Patent number: 10883792
    Abstract: A method of micro adjusting cam timing on an archery bow includes separating filaments of a cable or bow string to form a split area and inserting an adjustment spacer into the split area. The adjustment spacer causes a length of a bow string or cable to be shortened. The split in the cable or bowstring requires moving the limbs toward each other to allow the filaments of a cable or bowstring to be separated for insertion of the adjustment spacer. However, the cable or bow string may be sold with a pre-inserted split holder to allow the adjustment spacer to be inserted into the bow string without the need for a bow press. The adjustment spacer includes a middle perimeter, which tapers outward in opposing directions to a larger retention perimeter. The split holder is preferably a thin disc with a plurality of notches formed around a perimeter thereof.
