ABSTRACT:
An overdraw assembly for use with an archery bow of the type including a bow having a central bow section and limb sections and a bow string secured at its opposite ends to the free ends of the limb sections. The overdraw assembly includes an elongated track, a bracket secured to the central bow section and mounting the elongated track in a position extending transversely of the central bow section from a location substantially forwardly of the central bow section to a location rearwardly of the central bow section, a base member mounted for sliding movement along the track, a guard member secured to the upper face of the base member and having an upwardly opening U-shaped configuration in cross section to receive the forward end of an arrow to protect the arm of the user as the arrow is projected forwardly, a spring secured to the front end of the track and to the front end of the arrow guard, and an elastic member secured to the rear end of the guard member and to the bow string so that the guard member is pulled rearwardly along the track in response to rearward movement of the bow string with the rearward movement of the guard member being loaded and resisted by extension of the spring so that, as the bow string is thereafter released, the arrow is projected forwardly and the guard member moves forwardly along the track under the urging of the extended spring to a forward stop position relative to the track where it is ready to receive another arrow.
