Abstract
In some embodiments, an archery bow comprises a riser comprising a grip, a bowstring comprising a nocking point, a cable and a cable guard arranged to apply a force to the cable at a contact location. The bow defines a shooting axis, which is positioned in a longitudinal plane and a lateral plane. The longitudinal plane is orthogonal to the lateral plane. The bowstring is positioned in the longitudinal plane. The contact location is positioned on the lateral plane.
