Types of Compound Bows. Compound bows are classified by the type of cam system they use (called the bow eccentric.) The most popular types of compound bows on the market are Single Cam (sometimes also called One Cam or Solocam), Hybrid Cam, Dual Cam and Binary Cam. Less common designs like Quad Cam and Hinged are a little harder to find.
A deflex bow is a bow that has arms curved or curled at the base, to turn towards the archer when unstrung. This bow form reduces the strain on the limbs and also the energy stored by the weapon. Most modern recurve bows are built with some degree of deflex.
