ABSTRACT:
An improved arrow is set forth. In the preferred and illustrated embodiment, the arrow nock is formed at the back end of a telescoping hollow tubular portion. It is received within a cooperative telescoping tubular portion which comprises the shaft of the arrow. A compressible coil spring is placed in the two telescoping portions. On release of the arrow from a bow string, the coil spring is compressed. Before release is completed, the spring absorbs recoil and the arrow is restored to full length. This speeds up the arrow and reduces drop during trajectory.
