Abstract

A drop away arrow rest including an arrow support arm and a reset button operable to convert the rest from a first mode, in which a shaft is rotationally fixed relative to the support arm, to a second mode, in which the shaft is rotationally decoupled relative to the support arm. The reset button can be manually moveable to convert the rest from the first mode in which the support arm can be in a rest position, to the second mode in which the support arm can be in the support position. The rest can include a reset bias member that selectively moves the shaft, and a support arm bias member that selectively moves the support arm to the support position and / or the rest position. The rest can include containment arms to offer full, surrounding arrow containment. A readily replaceable bumper can join with the support arm and / or containment arms.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to an archery drop away arrow rest and a related method of operation.

[0002] Most archery bows are equipped with an arrow rest that holds an arrow before it is shot from the bow. One common arrow rest is referred to as a “drop away” arrow rest. This rest precisely and accurately positions the arrow when the bow (and thus, the bowstring) is at full draw, but drops rapidly away from the arrow upon release of the bowstring. Accordingly, the rest does not contact the arrow for its full length or the arrow's fletching and divert the arrow from its intended trajectory as the arrow is shot from the bow.

[0003] A variety of drop away arrow rests exist. One type of rest is a forward falling rest. A forward falling rest typically includes (a) an arrow support that holds the arrow shaft in a loaded position at full draw and subsequently drops forward or falls away forward (away from the archer / bowstring) to a relaxed position upon rele...
