  • Patent number: 5085201
    Abstract: An arrow rest frame has a support frame for mounting on an archery bow. The arrow rest frame has a pair of opposing, spaced arrow rest wheels forming a cradle on which an arrow to be shot is rested. The arrow rest frame includes a resilient parallel linkage which provides downward movement of the arrow rest wheels to compensate for a downward bowed deflection in the arrow shaft. The resiliency of the parallel linkage is adjustable. The arrow rest employs small narrow tired wheels for minimum friction drag and for allowing free flight of the arrow therethrough.
