1. An arrow rest for a bow comprising:
a housing;
a shaft mounted to the housing, the shaft being rotatable between a first position and a second position with an intermediary position therebetween;
an actuator attached to the shaft for connecting to a portion of the bow;
a rest mounted to the shaft, wherein the rest is rotatable relative to the shaft; and
a biasing device attached to the shaft and flexibly coupling the rest to the shaft;
wherein when the shaft is rotated to the first position the rest is rotated to a raised state, when the shaft is rotated to the intermediary position the rest is rotated to a dropped state, and when the shaft is rotated from the intermediary position to the second position the rest is maintained in the dropped state; and
wherein the biasing device is distorted by torsional force when the shaft is rotated from the intermediary position to the second position.
