Abstract:

A bow arm support stabilizer system for supporting the weight of the bow while aiming and shooting is disclosed. The system has a horizontal connecting shaft with a rear end attached to the riser section of the bow through a single stud received in the threaded bore conventionally formed in the riser section. A pair of clamping arms attached to the horizontal connecting shaft extend rearwardly to locate clamping jaws respectively adjacent side surfaces of the riser section. The clamping arms are pivoted on the horizontal section to urge the jaws into clamping contact with the riser section. A telescopic support rod assembly is pivotally mounted to the front end of the horizontal shaft. The rod assembly includes at least three rods telescopically connected together with internal locking mechanisms between adjacent rod sections to effectively control the length of the rod assembly by rotation of one rod relative to another in a locking direction or reverse rotation in an unlocking direction. The non-rotational connection prevents relative twisting movement between the bow and the shaft as a result of high torque at these points of connection generated by the movement arm effect of the support arm assembly relative to the ground.
