Claim 6

A guiding and launching device for arrows comprising: a hollow launching tube assembly, attachment means for fastening said assembly at one end thereof to the spine point of a bow, and means attached to a bow for pivotally moving at least a part of said assembly relative to the longitudinal axis of a bow for moving at least a part of said assembly into arrow launching position and to a position adjacent the longitudinal axis of a bow for carrying and storage purposes, said assembly comprising a first hollow tubular portion and a second hollow tubular portion coaxially aligned with and pivotally connected to said first tubular portion, the portions of said assembly being split along opposite ends of a first diameter of said assembly along its length and provided with an internal slot along a second diameter of said assembly arranged substantially perpendicular to said first diameter, whereby the tips of an arrow head and its fletchings protrude into said split and slot for guiding of an arrow through the guiding and launching device.

Claim 7

A guiding and launching device for arrows comprising: a hollow launching tube assembly, attachment means for fastening said assembly at one end thereof to the spine point of a bow, and means attached to a bow for pivotally moving at least a part of said assembly relative to the longitudinal axis of a bow for moving at least a part of said assembly into arrow launching position and to a position adjacent the longitudinal axis of a bow for carrying and storage purposes, said assembly comprising a first hollow tubular portion and a second hollow tubular portion coaxially aligned with and pivotally connected to said first tubular portion, the portions of said assembly being split along opposite ends of a first diameter of said assembly along its length and provided with an internal slot along a second diameter of said assembly arranged substantially perpendicular to said first diameter, whereby the tips of an arrow head and its fletchings protrude into said split and slot for guiding of an arrow through the guiding and launching device.

Claim 8

The guiding and launching device for arrows set forth in claim 4 in further combination with: bowstring positioning means mounted on the outer periphery of said second hollow tubular portion and extending from the end closest to the user when in use toward said first hollow tubular portion for positioning of the bowstring prior to manual removal of a bowstring therefrom for releasing to cause an arrow in the tube assembly to be launched.

Claim 9

The guiding and launching device set forth in claim 5 in further combination with: a butt member fastened to the free end of said second member for engaging the jawbone of a user when said assembly is in arrow launching position, said butt member being provided with an opening therethrough which is aligned with the hollow interior of said tube assembly and through which the arrow is inserted into said tube assembly, and said butt member being further provided with groove means for holding and supporting the palm and fingers gripping the bowstring of an associated bow.
