Archery target sight

Abstract

An improved archery target sight, in which much of the unneeded weight present in support arms is removed. This sight utilizes a pair of lightweight rods, that are positioned lengthwise vertically to each other, and where the rods are gripped between a mounting block and clamp, with the rods placed in recessed grooves defined in the block and clamp. The rods extend outward from the bow to hold and position vertical adjustment sighting apparatus. A stop block may be attached along the length of the rods, where the stop block is adjacent to the mounting block and provides a means to set the placement of the rods in reference to the mounting block, by consistently placing the stop block immediately adjacent to the mounting block, so as to allow disassembly of the rods from the mounting block, and reattachment at a later time with an identical configuration achieved by repositioning the stop block against the mounting block.

I claim:  
     
         1 . An improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, comprising: 
 a. a mounting block, capable of being attached to an archery bow;    b. a clamp;    c. a plurality of support rods, which are positioned between the mounting block and clamp, where said mounting block and clamp are tightened together against the rods, so as to fix the position of the rods in relation to the mounting block and clamp;    d. a means to tighten the clamp against the mounting block; and    e. a rod receiving block, which receives the rod ends, and to which vertical sight adjustment components may be attached.    
     
     
         2 . The improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, as recited in  claim 1 , in which the rods comprise carbon rods, having a uniform circumference and shape along their length.  
     
     
         3 . The improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, as recited in  claim 1 , in which the mounting block defines a pair of parallel recessed grooves which allow placement of the rod lengths within said grooves.  
     
     
         4 . The improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, as recited in  claim 1 , in which the clamp defines a pair of parallel recessed grooves which allow placement of the rod lengths within said grooves.  
     
     
         5 . The improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, as recited in  claim 1 , in which the means to tighten the clamp against the mounting block comprises a clamp knob, that is able to rotate a tightening bolt.  
     
     
         6 . The improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, as recited in  claim 1 , in which the rods are positioned vertically lengthwise in relation to one another.  
     
     
         7 . An improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, having a means to mark and maintain a fixed desired position of support rods, allowing the support rods to be disassembled from a bow and reassembled to the identical configuration prior to the disassembly, comprising: 
 a. a mounting block, capable of being attached to an archery bow;    b. a clamp;    c. a stop block; and    d. a plurality of support rods, which are positioned between the clamp and a stop block, where said stop block and clamp are tightened together against the rods, so as to fix the position of the rods in relation to the stop block and clamp, and where said rods are able to be placed between said mounting block and clamp, with the stop block placed adjacent to the mounting block.    
     
     
         8 . An improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, having a means to mark and maintain a fixed desired position of support rods, allowing the support rods to be disassembled from a bow and reassembled to the identical configuration prior to the disassembly, as recited in  claim 7 , in which the rods comprise carbon rods, having a uniform circumference and shape along their length.  
     
     
         9 . An improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, having a means to mark and maintain a fixed desired position of support rods, allowing the support rods to be disassembled from a bow and reassembled to the identical configuration prior to the disassembly, as recited in  claim 7 , in which the mounting block defines a pair of parallel recessed grooves which allow placement of the rod lengths within said grooves.  
     
     
         10 . An improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, having a means to mark and maintain a fixed desired position of support rods, allowing the support rods to be disassembled from a bow and reassembled to the identical configuration prior to the disassembly, as recited in  claim 7 , in which the clamp defines a pair of parallel recessed grooves which allow placement of the rod lengths within said grooves.  
     
     
         11 . An improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, having a means to mark and maintain a fixed desired position of support rods, allowing the support rods to be disassembled from a bow and reassembled to the identical configuration prior to the disassembly, as recited in  claim 7 , in which the means to tighten the clamp against the mounting block comprises a clamp knob, that is able to rotate a tightening bolt.  
     
     
         12 . An improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, having a means to mark and maintain a fixed desired position of support rods, allowing the support rods to be disassembled from a bow and reassembled to the identical configuration prior to the disassembly, as recited in  claim 7 , in which the rods are positioned vertically lengthwise in relation to one another.  
     
     
         13 . An improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, having a means to mark and maintain a fixed desired position of support rods, allowing the support rods to be disassembled from a bow and reassembled to the identical configuration prior to the disassembly, as recited in  claim 7 , in which the stop block defines recessed grooves into which the rods are placed.  
     
     
         14 . An improved archery target sight, capable of holding and positioning adjustable vertical sighting components forward of a bow shaft, having a means to mark and maintain a fixed desired position of support rods, allowing the support rods to be disassembled from a bow and reassembled to the identical configuration prior to the disassembly, as recited in  claim 7 , in which the stop block, when fixed in position to the rods, is placed adjacent to the mounting block, so as to determine the position of the rods in relation to the mounting block.
