The present invention is directed to an arrow support of an arrow rest adapted for use with an archer's bow, preferably an archer's compound bow. The arrow support is designed for easy, quick and yet extremely accurate adjustment of the arrow support pods with individual arrows.
The prior art consist of numerous designs for arrow rests such as those shown on pages 24 and 25 of Bowhunters' Discount Warehouse, Inc. catalog, Summer edition, 1992. Each of these arrow rests is designed to be mounted with a bow. Each includes an arrow launcher. Each possesses adjustment arrangements where the arrow launcher may be adjusted for its vertical position and its horizontal position relative to the bow. Many include arrow support fingers in which the gap separating the support pods is adjustable. Each contains the singular drawback which the arrow rest of the present invention is designed to eliminate, i.e. the adjustment of the gap separating the pods can not be made instantaneously without loosening and tightening adjustment screws.
Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide an arrow support which is easily and accurately adjusted for use with different arrows.
