ABSTRACT:
For use with an archery bow, a combination arrow rest and side support assembly for an arrow shaft. The assembly is formed of a pre-shaped, high-tensile-strength, flexible and resilient unitary spring wire fastened at a mid-zone thereof to a threaded mounting bolt which is secured in turn to a sidewall of the bow. The arrow rest portion of the wire is bent reversely upon itself to form an upwardly open loop, and then outwardly at an upwardly directed angle to terminate in a flexible and resilient, outstretched rest arm coated with a lubric, low-friction material. The loop serves as a passageway for unobstructed travel of a vane of the arrow therethrough during flight of the arrow from the bow, the arrow shaft resting on the resilient, upwardly angled arm of the arrow rest. The cooperating side support section of the wire is of a generally rectangular, frame-like configuration and positioned at that side of the mounting bolt away from the rest arm. The side support terminates in a downwardly-projecting, laterally-displaceable spine or strut having a free end directed toward a base of the loop, the spine being ensleeved in a low-friction, high-lubricity tube. In the arrangement described, the arrow shaft rests on the upwardly angled arm of the wire assembly while simultaneously abutting the side supporting vertical spine of the wire, both the arm and the side support being resiliently displaceable in response to forces applied thereagainst during release of the arrow from the bow.
