ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to a method of set up and sighting-in an arrow rest used with an archery bow. The arrow rest includes a pivotal arrow launcher having vertically extending arrow support fingers. The method includes locating the arrow support fingers in a proper vertical position. Locking the launcher in this position against pivotal movement. Providing a position limit member for limiting the vertical movement of the arrow support fingers to the proper vertical position. Also providing a tensioning member for urging the arrow support fingers into the proper vertical position. Securing the limit member and tensioning member to a position to retain the arrow support fingers in the proper vertical position which partially corrects the shot Arrows Paradox. Mounting the pivotal arrow launcher to a member capable of horizontal adjustment and horizontally adjusting the horizontal adjusting member to properly locate the arrow support fingers horizontally of the bow. The method provides for the arrow rest to be sighted-in to properly position the arrow launcher vertically without disturbing the horizontal setting and to position the arrow launcher horizontally without disturbing the vertical setting. The method further includes adjusting the tension of the tensioning means to control the degree of downward movement of the arrow launcher during arrow launch. The adjustment of tension is also made without disturbing the vertical and horizontal settings of the arrow launcher.
