Abstract
The invention comprises an archery drawlock device adapted for use with an overdraw arrow rest. The device includes an elongated mounting bracket having near its forward end a bolt slot for attaching the bracket to an archery bow'"'"'s handle, and having intermediate its forward and rearward ends a slot for supporting an overdraw arrow rest at a selectable distance to the rear of the bow'"'"'s handle. The device further includes a draw tube attached to the rearward end of the mounting bracket and a draw rod in telescoping engagement with the draw tube. In a preferred embodiment, the draw tube can be attached to the bow at a selectable angle to align with the axis of the arrow between nock point and arrow rest after vertical adjustment to a tuned nocking point. The back end of the draw rod supports a bow string mechanical release. A latching device locks and holds the draw rod at a full draw position when the bow string is drawn beyond the full draw position.
