ABSTRACT:
The archery bow assembly includes an archery bow having a riser with arrow window, arrow rest and handle, a pair of limbs and a bowstring. The assembly also includes a novel arrow holder which prevents an arrow from inadvertently rolling off the rest but which automatically releases the arrow as the arrow is drawn during shooting of the bow. The holder includes a flexible resilient elongated line of rubber or the like having a high frictional resistance with the surface of the arrow, connectors at one or both opposite ends of the line, an anchor bolt or the like anchoring one end of the line through its connector to the riser, preferably at the rear end thereof, and a smooth surfaced slide pin or the like interconnected to and projecting rearwardly from the riser and slideably receiving the connector at the opposite end of the line, after the line is passed over the arrow when the latter is on the rest. Preferably, the pin is carried by a crossbar. As the arrow is drawn rearwardly, the line travels with it until the connector slides off the slide pin so that the line automatically releases the arrow and then flexes out of the window area and arrow path. In order to accommodate various arrow shaft diameters, bow riser configurations, arrow rests and the like, the pin angle and length are adjustable, as is its position behind the bow window. The crossbar is also adjustable in length and angle.
