Do you know the how and why a cam works on your bow?  Do different draw lengths mean different string lengths? What does a hot rod engine have to do with a compound bow cam?

Anthony and Aneal are joined by Kevin Strother, who is a bow designer and consultant to Elite Archery.  Kevin shares his over 25 years of experience designing bows and cams to answer some very common questions about how our bows really work for us (and sometimes against us!).  He also reviews the 2009 Elite Archery lineup and covers the differences in each bow and what went into each individual design.  Come inside - don't be cam shy!

Podcast Description

We all tend to talk about how there is no youth to follow us up in this sport we as athletes all love and hold dear. We scratch our heads talking about how we can pull kids away from XBox and Nintendo Wii and get them out in the field to help them understand why we all LOVE the sport we chose to excel at - Archery Hunting.

What if we shared with you EXACTLY what you could do as a bowhunter to get youth "fired up" about shooting a bow? Well if you want to know how you can truly do your part in helping kids enjoy all the passion and excitement you have about bowhunting, listen in on this week's episode.

BowCast is joined by Roy Grimes from the National Archery in Schools Program (NASP). Roy has a stellar career under his belt serving the public as a Wildlife Biologist in a number of different roles; Most recently Roy was the Deputy Commissioner with the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources for the last 12 years of his career before he retired and turned his energy and attention to co-founding and becoming the International Director of the National Archery in Schools Program.
