Abstract
An article for protecting the cam of a compound bow that includes a member extending from a limb of the compound bow and disposed in overlapping arrangement with the cam. The member extends beyond the cam such that the cam is elevated from a surface upon which the compound bow is placed. The member is positioned at an angle of greater than 0 and less than 180 degrees relative to the bow limb such that the member may be used as a stand and to provide vibration dampening functions.
