Abstract: A rest for a bow or gun, useful when a hunter is in a standing position. The rest comprises a generally U-shaped body sized and shaped to fit in a front or side pant pocket, and to be worn comfortably throughout a hunt or shooting session. The rest has a lower end defining a shelf of sufficient thickness to receive and support a bow's lower limb tip or cam, or a corner of a gun's butt stock, through the pocket fabric. The rest may have a substantially rigid but pliable core for adjusting the shape for a custom fit, and an outer cushioning layer for comfort and for resiliently receiving the bow or gun.
