An arrow rest for an archery bow having an arrow support arm that pivots in two directions from an initial arrow receiving position, on a generally horizontal plane, and automatically returns to the initial position after being displaced in either direction. Two springs cooperate to locate and maintain the arrow support arm in the initial position and act to cushion each other during operation. A first spring, of predetermined tension, returns the arrow support arm to said initial position after being displaced by an arrow being discharged from the bow and is cushioned upon return by a second spring, of higher tension, which then cooperates to locate the arrow support arm in said initial position. If the arrow support arm is accidently forced essentially backwards of normal rotation said second spring will return the arrow support arm to said initial position where said first spring will first cushion and then cooperate to locate the arrow support arm in said initial position. The arrow rest has the unexpected ability to be assembled for either right handed or left handed bows using the exact same parts. The arrow rest is easily mounted on a suitable cushion plunger, of conventional design, and may be mounted and remounted with complete assurance of maintaining the proper position and alignment with respect to the bow. By mounting the arrow rest on said cushion plunger the rest gains easy lateral adjustment and adjustable cushioning for lateral thrust.
