Abstract: This invention entails an armguard for mounting on an archery bow. The armguard includes a shield that extends rearward from a bow, protecting an archer's forearm from the inherent danger presented by a bowstring as it delivers an arrow to its target. A mounting plate extends perpendicularly from one end of the shield provides for fast, fail-safe mounting to the bow. The armguard is mounted to the bow by threading a stabilizer, a bolt, or other bow accessory through an aperture in the mounting plate and into the accessory port. The mounting plate can be attached to both sides of the mounting end of the shield, enabling both right-handed and left-handed use of the armguard.
