Archery bow having an operative riser

A method of operating an archery bow to enable said bow to have a high throw weight while having a low draw weight, said method comprising;

• pivoting a first limb of said archery bow inwardly towards a first pivotal position, said first pivotal position setting a draw weight of a drawstring of said archery bow;
• pulling said drawstring from a rested position to a drawn position;
• engaging an actuating means disposed within a riser of said archery bow, said actuating means causes pivotal movement of said first limb;
• pivoting said first limb outwardly towards a second pivotal position, said second pivotal position setting a throw weight of said drawstring of said archery bow, said throw weight being greater than said draw weight;
• retaining a second limb of said archery bow in a fixed position while pivoting said first limb to said first pivotal position and said second pivotal position;
• and
• releasing said drawstring from said drawn position causing an arrow to be released at said throw weight while retaining said first limb in said second pivotal position.

A compound archery bow having an operative riser, a first limb extending outwardly from said riser, a second limb extending outwardly from said riser on an opposite end, and a drawstring supported between distal ends of said first and second limbs for propelling an arrow, said riser comprising:

• a first end section connected to said first limb;
• a second end section connected to said second limb;
• a central section connected between said first and second end sections, said first end section being fixedly connected to a first portion said central section and said second end section being pivotally connected to a second portion said central section;
• wherein said central section has a handle portion extending between said first portion and said second portion;
• wherein said central section has an internal cavity extending throughout said first portion, said second portion, and said handle portion;
• an actuating assembly disposed within said internal cavity of said central section;
• wherein said actuating assembly includes a master cylinder horizontally positioned within said first portion of said central section;
• wherein said master cylinder includes a first piston rod retractably extending within said master cylinder, wherein said first piston rod extends through a front opening of said central section forwardly of said handle portion;
• wherein said actuating assembly includes a slave cylinder horizontally positioned within said second portion of said central section;
• wherein said actuating assembly includes a connecting hose fluidly connecting said master cylinder to said slave cylinder to allow a transfer of fluid therebetween;
• wherein said slave cylinder includes a second piston rod retractably extending within said slave cylinder, wherein said second piston rod includes a wedge at a distal end of said second piston rod, said wedge having a tapered surface to selectively engage an angled end of said second end section;
• and
• a trigger assembly having a pivotal connector connected to said central section and a trigger member extending therefrom forwardly of said handle portion;
• said trigger member physically contacting said first piston rod to operably engage said master cylinder and cause said fluid to be transferred from said master cylinder to said slave cylinder to extend said second piston rod and cause pivotal movement of said second limb via pivotal movement of said second end section, said pivotal movement changing a length between said distal ends of said first and second limbs thus changing a draw or throw weight of said drawstring.
