a member configured to couple to the first cam assembly in a first configuration and couple to the second cam assembly in a second configuration;
a bowstring extending between the first cam assembly and the second cam assembly; and
a first cable; and
a second cable;
wherein:
in the first configuration, the member is configured to contact the first cable at a first distance from the first axis of rotation to induce a first rate at which the archery bow increases in draw weight upon achieving a minimum draw weight at a draw length; and
in the second configuration, the member is configured to contact the second cable at a second distance from the second axis of rotation to induce a second rate at which the archery bow increases the draw weight upon achieving the minimum draw weight at the draw length, the second distance being different from the first distance, and the second rate being different than the first rate.
