  • Patent number: 7299798
    Abstract: Friendly fire archery bow, is the solution for the archery bow hunter to remain undetected while shooting at game animals. Or being detected without being recognized as the enemy. This archery accessory is a way to disguise the noise an archery bow makes when fired. The scope of this product is to make an artificial sound that is non threatening to game animals when the archery bow is fired. Or an added bonus is to call or attract more game animals while attempting to harvest the present animals. Edward Flanagan shows three examples of how this can be accomplished. One is the bellow type animal call (12) FIG. 1 activated by bow limb (28) movement when the bow (10) is fired. The call could be crow, turkey, squirrel, deer, fox, duck, and rabbit squealer etcetera. The second is a bellow type animal call FIG. 2 (46) activated by compound archery bow cable movement. The third is a air pump activated animal call FIG. 3 (62) that functions when the bow is fired.
