  • Patent number: 8544457
    Abstract: An archery rest system comprises a body mounted to the bow. A shaft is mounted within the body and a lever arm is secured to the shaft. An opening is formed in the body with an arrow launcher mounted to the shaft and extending through the opening. A spring biases the arrow launcher in an up position. A cord is secured to the lever arm. A securing mechanism secures the cord to the bow and an in-line dampening spring is mounted between the lever arm and the securing mechanism. With the bow at rest, the launcher moves to a down position out of contact with the arrow. Upon bow draw, the launcher moves into the up position contacting the arrow. Upon bow firing, the launcher moves to the down position with the spring absorbing load imparted on the cord when the shaft reaches a rotation travel limit.
