20150264907 | BOWFISHING REEL WITH AUTOMATIC BAIL OPEN - A bowfishing reel system that can use a standard reel or a normally biased open reel each having a lever that when actuated forces the bail into the open state. A mechanical coupling, such as a string is connected between the lever of the reel and the bow cable or bow string. When the bow is drawn, the mechanical couple causes the lever to be actuated and thus forcing the reel into the open state. As such, when a user goes to shoot an arrow at a target, as soon as the bow is drawn the bail is opened thus preventing back lash and injury. | 09-24-2015 |
20130274041 | Composite Arrow Vane - Disclosed is a composite arrow vane for mounting to a projectile. The composite arrow vane is constructed of a composite material that includes a polymer matrix around structural elements. In some embodiments, the polymer matrix may be a thermoplastic polyurethane. The structural elements compounded into the polymer may be voids, hollow glass beads or just about any structure having a weight per unit volume that is less than the weight per unit volume of the polymer matrix. Advantageously, the composite material allows for reduced dimensions of the composite arrow vane because the increased tensile strength of the material allows for size reductions without significantly compromising vane performance. Similarly, the lighter weight per unit volume of the composite material as compared to a homogeneous polymer allows for increased flight speed of the projectile. | 10-17-2013 |
