Claims18
A stand for vertically supporting an archery bow, the stand including;
- a bracket adapted to be removably mounted to the bow, a pair of leg members having upper portions mounted to said bracket so that said leg members are in spaced relationship to one another and oriented so as to extend vertically below a riser portion of the bow when said stand is mounted to the bow, said bracket including a pair of spaced guide sleeves of a size to slidingly receive one of said leg members therein, securing means associated with each of said guide sleeves for securing said leg members in adjusted positions within said guide sleeves, and a vibration damping member mounted to each of said leg members for dissipating vibrational energy transmitted along said leg members from the bow when the stand is mounted to the bow and the bow fired.
A combination archery bow and bow stand, comprising, an archery bow having a riser from which extend upper and lower limbs, a stand including a bracket adapted to be removably connected to said riser of said bow, said stand having a pair of leg members having upper portions mounted to said bracket so that said leg members are in spaced relationship to one another and extend outwardly and vertically downwardly relative to said riser so that said leg members and said lower limb support said bow vertically on a surface, said bracket includes a pair of spaced guide sleeves of a size to slidingly receive one of said leg members therein, and securing means associated with each of said guide sleeves for securing said leg members in adjusted positions within said guide sleeves, and a vibration or damping member mounted to each of said leg members for dissipating vibrational energy transmitted from said bow when said stand is mounted to said bow and said bow fired.
