ABSTRACT:
The improved assembly comprises, in combination, an archery bow with arrow shelf and sidewalls defining an arrow window, an archery arrow and an improved arrow rest disposed in the window and supporting the arrow in the window for shooting from the bow. The rest is particularly adapted for hunting in that it locks the arrow in place, preventing it from rolling off the rest or inadvertently dropping through the rest and down onto the shelf before shooting. The rest includes a holder comprising a canted hook, the forward end of which contacts the bottom and outer margins of the arrow shaft. The inner margin of the hook is spaced less than the width of the arrow shaft from the sidewall. The holder is biased by a spring into the holding position. A side support such as a plunger resiliently biases the arrow away from the sidewall. A connector bracket adjustably positions the holder relative to the arrow. The connector includes a rear arm bearing the holder and is rotatable against the spring. When the arrow is strung on the bow, it can be placed in the locked carrying position by pushing the front end of the arrow down to trap the arrow shaft between the underside of the side support, the sidewall and the holder. The arrow can be easily moved to the shooting position, when needed. The assembly is highly effective, affords positive arrow vane clearance and is simple, durable and inexpensive.
