Abstract
An arrow locating device for use with archery equipment which includes a hollow spool of line for dispensing the line axially from internally of the spool. The spool is fastened to a bow and has the free end of the line attached to the arrow so that upon shooting the arrow, the line is unwound from the spool making it easier to trace the arrow. The spool is provided with an attaching arrangement making it possible for the spool to be carried directly on the arrow until the arrow is noched in readiness for shooting and makes it possible to rapidly reload for subsequent shots.
