ABSTRACT:
The archery arrow rest device includes an arrow launcher in the form of an upwardly and forwardly extending blade having a forked upper end for contacting the underside of an arrow shaft, flanked by a pair of flexible, resilient, bendable, upwardly and forwardly extending wire arms for gripping the opposite sides of the arrow shaft. Those arms are connected to the launcher or to a transverse support arm, as is the launcher. The launcher may be pivotally connected to such transverse arm, and biased to a position perpendicular to the transverse arm by springs connected to it or to the arrow-gripping arms so as to eliminate the need for a plunger. The transverse arm is laterally adjustably received in a block securable to the side of an archery bow riser to adjustably support the launcher at a desired location in the bow window. The launcher may be of resiliently depressible material and/or may be rotatable into a depressed position but spring biased to the upright position along with the transverse arm. Such transverse arm may be square in cross-section, toothed as its four exterior edges and driven by a wheel in the block. A click stop mechanism may be attached thereto.
