Abstract

An arrow rest support comprises an arrow support member having an elongate and hollow structure open from end-to-end along an upper portion of its length to provide a cradle-shaped arrow rest, which rigidly supports the arrow vertically against the force of gravity and semi-rigidly horizontally. Such member has sufficient open space to allow the fletching of the arrow to pass without impediment. The arrow rest support also comprises an attachment arrangement for adjusting the space between the bow handle and the arrow rest. The arrow support member is preferably molded from a medium density plastic material, such as a medium density polyethylene in a general box beam configuration having a rectangular cross section, but open along an upper elongate corner as a gap between arrow rest surfaces.
