Abstract
Abstract A cable guard for a compound bow comprises a rod attached at one end to the bow handle and extends therefrom beyond the cables when the bow is fully drawn and is spaced laterally from the bow string sufficiently to avoid any interference therewith; and a cable retaining member rotatably and slidably mounted on the rod has two bores therethrough perpendicular to the rod for slidably receiving the cables thereby to hold them in lateral spaced relationship wih the bow string.
