during the conclusions chapter in this youtube video they speak of maximizing impact for the archer with new compound bow design. specifically, they speak of fitting the effective arrow throwing ability of a bow with 170-lb draw weight but with a force letoff at the end of the draw to improve aiming by lowering the holding force.
the throwing power depends on the arrow weight, but for a given arrow, the force vs relaxation of a bow can be tuned with the shape of the cams on a compound bow.
