Abstract
An improved restraint and alignment assembly for use with a string-mounted archery peepsight includes a nonelastic member, such as a flat-braid nylon cord that is tied between an eyelet on a post extending from the peepsight and an eyelet formed in a connector, which, in turn, is fastened to one end of an elastic member, such as a portion of latex surgical tubing. A second end of the elastic member is fastened to a post extending from an anchor pad secured to the inside of an upper limb of a compound bow. The nonelastic member extends through a safety clip that surrounds a cable of the compound bow at a location between the connector and the peepsight. The foregoing arrangement serves to limit any unwanted rearward travel of portions of the elastic member if the elastic member fails to be continuously secured between the anchor pad and the connector, thereby preventing any portion of the elastic member from reaching the face or eyes of the archer.
