Original Abstract Submitted

A crossbow includes a center rail defining a projectile axis, a draw string coupled with a first cam and a second cam, the draw string configured to move between a released configuration and a drawn configuration, a string carrier slidably coupled with the center rail and configured to selectively engage with the draw string to move the draw string between the released configuration and the drawn configuration, and an arrow rest configured to engage with a projectile to suspend the projectile over at least a portion of the center rail and configured to reposition the projectile relative to the center rail. During operation of the crossbow, the projectile engages the crossbow at two points of contact including the arrow rest and the draw string.
