ABSTRACT:
An improved archery arm guard is provided to prevent bowstring slap when shooting an archery bow. The arm guard features an elongated, preferably transversely curved, smoothly surfaced self-supporting body defining a number of internal preferably transvese passageways through which freely extend bads, straps, cords or the like, to releasably secure the arm guard in place on an archer's arm. The bands preferably are stretchable and include free ends bearing releasable securing devices such as snap buttons, Velcro strips or the like. Preferably, the body of the arm guard is curved down at the rear end to prevent inadvertent hooking of the bowstring under the arm guard during shooting of the bow. Moreover, the body is preferably curved up at the front end thereof to prevent its binding against the archer's wrist in use. The front end may be hinged to the rest of the body to facilitate its bending and the top surface of the arm guard may bear preferably colored longitudinal lines, ridges, grooves, or the like to help align the arm guard on the arm and help align the arm bearing the arm guard for accurate reproducible shooting. The arm guard is simple, inexpensive, durable, adjustable, efficient, and comfortable, and does not abrade the bowstring.
