ABSTRACT:
The archery bow assembly includes an archery bow with arrow window defined by a generally vertical sidewall and generally horizontal shelf, in which window an arrow rest is adjustably held by a transverse plunger passing laterally through the bow sidewall. An archery arrow is on the rest. The plunger includes an elongated tube with central cavity extending therethrough, and a rod, one end of which is releasably connected to the arrow rest and other end thereof extending into the cavity. One end of the housing extends away from the sidewall on the side opposite the window and terminates in an expanded head having a dish-shaped recess therein. A ball or other weight is seated in and extends out of the recess and is tethered to the rod in the cavity. A spring between the rod and ball in the cavity biases the rest away from the sidewall in the window. When the arrow is fired from the bow, the bow's vibrations rotate the ball forwardly out of the recess, thus pulling the rod and rest toward the sidewall, thereby providing improved clearance for the arrow as it flies through the window. The spring returns the ball, rod and rest to the resting position when the vibrations cease.
