Publication number: 20180187998Abstract: An archery release configured to eliminate, or at least minimize, vibrations and/or noise generated when a drawn bowstring is released from a pre-shoot position. The archery release includes a substrate subassembly and an overmolding material bonded to each other. The overmolding material is configured to absorb and eliminate, or at least minimize the vibrations and/or noise. The archery release also includes a trigger, a release mechanism, and a latching assembly extending into a hollow interior of a handle of the archery release. Within the handle, the latching assembly is operably coupled with the trigger and with the release mechanism.

Patent number: 10012486Abstract: Collars are provided for broadheads. In some embodiments, the collars are shock collars with frangible tabs which restrain the blades of an expandable broadhead during flight, stabilizing the flight path of the expandable broadhead. The frangible tabs break off of the shock collar upon impact, allowing the blades of the expandable broadhead to deploy and increase the size of the entrance hole made in the target. In some embodiments, the collars center a ferrule of a broadhead within an insert of an arrow.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2016Date of Patent: July 3, 2018Assignee: FeraDyne Outdoors, LLCInventor: William E.

Publication number: 20170314898Abstract: Composite arrow or crossbow bolt shafts have a hollow core, where the inner diameter of the shafts vary along the length of the shaft, but the outer diameter of the shafts remains constant. The hollow inner core may vary gradually in size along the length of the shaft, or it may vary in discrete stepped portions so that the shaft is more hollow in some portions in comparison to others. The hollow composite shafts may be manufactured by wrapping a tapered or stepped inner mandrel with fibers of a composite material and curing that composite material, or by triaxially braiding composite fibers around a tapered or stepped inner mandrel before curing those composite fibers.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2017Publication date: November 2, 2017Applicant: Feradyne Outdoors, LLCInventors: Jon Arthur Syverson, William Edward Pedersen

Patent number: 9702671Abstract: Devices and methods for illuminating an arrow nock or bolt end are disclosed. A lighted nock has a nock body that includes an arrow attachment portion and a proximate end having a portion adapted to receive a bowstring in a drawn position. A light source assembly is at least partially disposed within the nock body. The light source assembly includes a slide switch operably connected to a light source and a power source. The light source is activated when the bowstring is released from the drawn position, thereby causing the slide switch to move away from the proximate end and close an electrical circuit formed by the light source and the power source.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2015Date of Patent: July 11, 2017Assignee: FeraDyne Outdoors, LLCInventor: Stuart Minica

Patent number: 9605933Abstract: An expandable broadhead includes a number of fixed blades cumulating in a point, with each of the fixed blades having a channel for receiving a cammable deployable expansion blade, with the expansion blade having a slot which cooperates with a fixed retaining pin transverse to the channel that cams the deployable blade outwardly when a forward impact shoulder of the deployable blade strikes a target. This moves the blade relative to the fixed retaining pin and thus cams the deployable blade out to an expanded position for maximum blade cutting edge contact to effectuate maximum damage to the target and a quick kill.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2015Date of Patent: March 28, 2017Assignee: FeraDyne Outdoors, LLCInventor: William E.

Patent number: 9587912Abstract: A bow sight with at least one sight pin mounted to a frame assembly. At least one optical fiber is attached to the sight pin. The optical fiber is exposed to gather ambient light and to transmit light to a sight point located within the frame assembly. The eye alignment assembly includes an optical structure mounted to the frame assembly including a sight point of an optical fiber located near a proximal end of the optical structure and a lens with alignment indicia located at a distal end of the optical structure. An adjustment system permits the optical structure to be reoriented relative to the frame assembly. The eye alignment assembly provides an indication of orientation of the shooter relative to the bow in at least two degrees of freedom.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2014Date of Patent: March 7, 2017Assignee: FeraDyne Outdoors LLCInventors: Larry Pulkrabek, Jay Engstrom, Aaron Pellett, Matthew Haas
