Abstract
In order to ensure rapid and effective arrow shaft positioning, without interfering with intended flight trajectory, an arrow rest assembly includes a support for an arrow in proximity to a handle riser portion of a bow. The arrow support includes a body member disposed in a plane generally parallel to a plane defined by the bow and a bowstring on the bow. The body member has a surface for supporting a shaft of the arrow. It also is mounted to the handle riser portion of the bow. The body member has a pivot point spaced from the shaft supporting surface. The mounting is associated with the body member at the pivot point. With this arrangement the arrow rest assembly is such that the mounting accommodates pivotal movement of the body member within the plane of the body member about the pivot point from an arrow supporting position to an arrow passage position.
