ABSTRACT:
A combination of a bow and power handle, the power handle will isolate an archer's hand from the bow in order to prevent the archer's hand from effecting the position of the bow which would, in turn, change the direction of the arrow. In addition, the instant invention adds energy to the bow in order to increase force to an arrow which increases the flight distance when the arrow is launched. The assembly includes an archery bow having limbs interconnected by a bowstring which is movable to a drawn position to impart energy to an arrow upon release of the bowstring from the drawn position. A power means is formed from a connecting portion and a biasing portion and includes a suitable handle. The power handle is adapted to be gripped by an archer and is connected to the bow for movement relative thereto between an energy-storing position and a release position for storing energy when gripped by an archer in the drawn position and for imparting the stored energy to the bow upon release of the bowstring from the drawn position. The connecting portion connects the power assembly to the bow. In the first two embodiments the biasing portion is comprised of resilient members while in a third embodiment the biasing portion is comprised of a spring.
