Abstract: A hollow cylindrical, internally and externally screw threaded support member extends through a vertically elongated aperture from side to side through the bow handle and is vertically adjustable therein. The support member has a square head on one end which is vertically slidable in a larger vertically elongated rectangular recess in one side of the bow handle, a nut on the other end thereof when tightened clamps the support member in a vertically adjusted position, an arrow rest is attached to the outer surface of the square head, and a hollow cylindrical, externally screw threaded member carrying a spring pressed arrow spacing plunger slidable longitudinally therein is threadedly engaged in said support member for horizontal adjustment.

Abstract: The butt sections of the limbs of a take-down bow are loosely received in inwardly extending sockets in the ends of a bow handle section and are arranged to rock in a fore and aft direction on outer end portions of the rear socket walls. Inwardly extending T slots in the rear socket walls slidably receive headed members fixed in the bow limbs and prevent forward movement of the bow limbs. Members supported near the socket bottoms for fore and aft screw threaded adjustment receive the inner ends of the limbs, and spring pressed detents projecting centrally from the headed members snap into apertures in the rear socket walls when the inner ends of the limbs are properly inserted into the screw threadedly adjustable members.

Abstract: A cable guard for a compound bow comprises a rod attached at one end to the bow handle and extends therefrom beyond the cables when the bow is fully drawn and is spaced laterally from the bow string sufficiently to avoid any interference therewith; and a cable retaining member rotatably and slidably mounted on the rod has two bores therethrough perpendicular to the rod for slidably receiving the cables thereby to hold them in lateral spaced relationship wih the bow string.

Abstract: The free end portions of the cables of a two-wheel type compound bow are extended to the back of the bow over pulleys rotatably mounted on the wheel shafts, the cable ends are fixed in one end of screws movable longitudinally in bores in adjacent anchor members fixed to the back of the bow and nuts threadedly engaged on the screws and bearing against the anchor members move the screws longitudinally when turned. In a modification anchor members on the front side of the bow are connected to the wheel shafts by flexible loops extending over small pulleys on the shafts and the free ends of the cables are mounted for free rotation in hollow screws threadedly engaged and screw threaded through bores in the anchor members.
