Abstract

Abstract An archery bow having telescoping members mounted thereon that extend rearwardly of the bow. On one of the telescoping members is a handhold member that is used to support a bowstring during the stressing thereof. On the outer member of the two telescoping members there is a device that engages the inner telescoping member and will hold the inner telescoping member in a rearwardly extended position against the stress of the bowstring. Through the telescoping members is a device that is controlled from the handhold member to release the device that holds the inner telescoping member in a rearwardly extended position.
