Types of Compound Bows. Compound bows are classified by the type of cam system they use (called the bow eccentric.)

Unlike a composite bow, it is in one piece, with flat limbs made of laminated fiberglass, and a sculpted handle. In archery, the shape of the bow is usually taken to be the view from the side. It is the product of the complex relationship of material stresses, designed by a bowyer. This shape, viewing the limbs, is designed to take into account the construction materials, the performance required, and the intended use of the bow. There are many different kinds of bow shapes. However, most fall into three main categories: straight, recurve and compound. Straight and recurve are considered traditional bows.
