ABSTRACT:
The invention provides an arrow nock receiver that forms a barrier around an arrow nock seated therein and physically separates the area in which the arrow nock seats from the area in which a bow string release may be attached. The receiver is defined by an arrow nock protection portion and a bow string release attachment portion. These portions are isolated from one another to prevent a bow string release from inadvertently dislodging an arrow nock seated within the receiver. The arrow nock portion is comprised of an open-mouthed first frame with opposing ends and an arcuate section. Disposed within the arcuate section is a flange. The flange is narrow enough to permit an arrow nock to seat over it, yet wide enough to prevent attachment of a release device. The bow string release attachment portion of the invention is comprised of a second frame integrally formed with, although offset from, the first frame of the arrow nock protection portion. In a second embodiment, the bow string release attachment portion is open-mouthed and positioned directly behind the first frame of the arrow nock portion. In a third embodiment, the bow string release attachment portion is a ball rather than the open-mouthed frame of the second embodiment. A forth embodiment provides a ball-shaped release attachment portion that is offset from the arrow nock portion. In a fifth embodiment, the flange of the first embodiment is replaced with a cylinder mounted within the first frame of the arrow nock protection portion of the device.
