ABSTRACT:
A retractable arrow rest activated on the initial movement of an arrow is provided. The arrow rest has a retractable pin which is an articulated pin or alternatively a telescoping pin, having a spring-loaded retract mechanism. By moving the articulated pin to an extended overcenter position, the pin is locked to support an arrow. An adjustment on the pin permits setting the sensitivity of the pin to retracting. At the proper sensitivity level, the pin will immediately retract on the first movement of the arrow (well before fletching impact). An over arrow safety lock to prevent movement of the arrow out of the rest and to prevent retraction of the pin is also provided. The safety lock allows precise hair trigger settings on the retractable pin while preventing inadvertent retractions.
