Claim 1
Independent Claim
161 words
An arrow rest assembly comprising rest support means adapted for installation on a bow in proximity to the point of rest of an arrow to be shot from such bow, an arrow rest having multi-directional flexibility including flexibility in various planes, and means for affixing said arrow rest to said support means with said rest in the normal rest position for an arrow to be shot from such bow, said arrow rest support means including a ferrule adapted for installation transversely of a bow and having a threaded longitudinal passageway therethrough, a stem adjustably threaded through said passageway and having a threaded recess at one end, said arrow rest including a coil spring having a tight turn at one end and at its other end, a terminal portion of the end turn extended in a generally longitudinal direction, said spring providing an arrow rest having resiliency in various directions, and means for locking said stem in any of its adjustable positions.
