There is provided a protective glove to cover at least a portion of a hand of an archer during the shooting of arrows from a bow, which glove is designed to resist a broken arrow from puncturing through the glove and entering the flesh of the user. In particular, there may be a palm section, made of a first arrow puncturable material that covers the palm of the users hand. There may also be a protective section, located on the glove covering the back of the hand of the user, made of a second material that has a high weight-to-strength value, coupled to the palm section and positioned so that a broken arrow being shot from a bow will have a higher likely hood of hitting the protective section than hitting areas not having the protective section.

In one embodiment a fitness device is disclosed. The fitness device may include a central handle having a body with a central aperture through the body. The device may also include a first rod removably coupled to the central handle at a first location and a second rod removably coupled to the central handle at a second location, opposite the first location. The device may also include an elastic member having a first end and a second end, the first end being coupled to the first rod and the second end being coupled to the second rod.

An innovative augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR) crossbow system that includes a bow frame assembly, a stock, a sight assembly, a cocking assembly, a resistance assembly and an electronic device assembly with a mobile device. These components are configured to structurally interact to provide the user with an experience of loading, aiming and firing a virtual crossbow arrow that closely simulates real-life archery and crossbow scenarios without firing an actual crossbow arrow. Due to its unique components and their layout, the AR/VR crossbow system is not configured to fire real arrows. An interactive crossbow application is loaded on the mobile device and simulate real life archery scenarios such as hunting scenarios or target competition scenarios. The mobile device also includes a gyroscope to analyze the orientation of the crossbow frame assembly and a microphone to determine when a simulated arrow is fired within the crossbow application.

An archery bow simulator, combining elements of a recurve bow and a compound bow into a single, versatile archery training device. A simulator body provides the main body and handle, while a first string bracket and a second string bracket are terminally connected to opposite ends of the simulator body. A first string stopper and a second string stopper extends from the simulator body and provide a means for supporting a string that is trained around the first string bracket and the second string bracket, and terminally connected to a first draw length adjuster and a second draw length adjuster. The first draw length adjuster and the second draw length adjuster allow the user to adjust the tension in the string. The first string bracket, the second string bracket, the first string stopper, and the second string stopper are collapsible for greater portability and storability.

In particular, there may be a palm section, made of a first arrow puncturable material that covers the palm of the users hand. There may also be a protective section, located on the glove covering the back of the hand of the user, made of a second material that has a weight-to-strength value of at least that of steel, coupled to the palm section and positioned so that a broken arrow being shot from a bow will have a higher likely hood of hitting the protective section than hitting areas not having the protective section.

A system for a smart bow includes an accelerometer, a gyroscope, a user interface, and processing circuitry. The accelerometer is configured to measure acceleration of the smart bow. The gyroscope is configured to measure orientation of the smart bow. The processing circuitry is configured to receive the acceleration and the orientation of the smart bow from the accelerometer and the gyroscope. The processing circuitry is configured to perform an analysis on the acceleration and the orientation of the smart bow to identify an action performed with the smart bow. The processing circuitry is configured to operate the user interface to display a result of the analysis.

An archery training system provides an archer the ability to safely condition psychologically and physically without the need of a bow and arrow while maintaining the sensation of using a bow and arrow. The archery training system is easily portable or stowed, and offers a combination of variables replicating the activity of compound bow shooting, such as a counter balanced replication of a grasped bow while drawing a bowstring, the utilization of accessory bow sights for target acquisition and aiming, the adjustability to accommodate the various hand grip styles unique to each archer, and immediate visual feedback to performance or shooting technique.

An adjustable archery training bow assembly includes a single resistance element and an adjustment mechanism that can be actuated by a user to vary the tension level in the resistance element for training purposes. The training bow also includes an integrated laser sight that allows the user to precisely aim at a target. The adjustable archery training bow is used to enhance the user's skills, such as his/her strength, stability and accuracy in delivering an arrow fired from a real, non-training bow to the target.
