ABSTRACT:
The improved assembly comprises a compound archery bow having a pair of spaced bow limbs, a handle with arrow rest, pulleys connected to the limbs, first and second pulley cables and a bowstring connected to the cables. A novel drawcheck is connected to the cables out of the path of an arrow when placed on the rest. The drawcheck includes an indicator component releasably secured to one of the cables and which comprises a flexible clicker blade or a light assembly with a switch arm disposed in the path of travel of an activator component secured to a second adjacent cable. The latter comprises a protuberance, such as a bead, block, cylinder or the like. The activator and indicator components travel with their respective cables toward each other as the bowstring is drawn, and contact each other to activate the indicator component and generate a signal when the bowstring is at full draw. Thus, a light is turned on or an audible click is made by the indicator blade on a tympanum near thereto to signal full draw. Arrow deflection by the clicker is thus totally avoided. The drawcheck is located in a protected area on the bow and is fully adjustable. The assembly provides improved shooting performance.
