Abstract: A launching apparatus for shooting a series of bolts in rapid-fire succession. The apparatus has an arcuate frame which is arranged along a longitudinal medial section with a transversely aligned upper section and a transversely aligned lower section. The midpoint of the arcuate frame has a grip portion for holding onto the launching apparatus. The frame also has an elastic launching band which is held tightly between an upper connector and a lower connector. A forearm brace extends perpendicular to the arcuate frame. The arcuate frame is held within a launching plane and the forearm being secured to the longitudinal medial section and aligned parallel to the user's forearm. The forearm brace resists an overturning moment applied from the elastic band about the longitudinal medial section of the arcuate frame. The brace keeps the arcuate frame in its launching plane. The bolt is configured for rapid-fire launch, and is arranged as a cylindrical shaft.
