Abstract:
An arrow rest assembly for use with a compound bow, the compound bow having a riser, a bowstring, and a tuning cable, the arrow rest assembly comprising:(a) a first arm pivotally attached to the riser; (b) a second arm connected to the first arm, the second arm having an arrow rest; (c) a third arm with first and second ends is pivotally attached to the first and second arms at the first end; and (d) a cable attachment at the second end of the third arm, the cable attachment securely attached to the tuning cable wherein movement of the bowstring away from the riser causes the third arm to move downwardly and forwardly, in turn causing the first arm to pivot upwardly on the riser thereby lifting the second arm and arrow rest upwardly, and wherein release of the bowstring causes the third arm to move upwardly and rearwardly, in turn causing the first arm to pivot downwardly on the riser thereby rapidly lowering the second arm and the arrow rest downwardly.
