Comet – Rear Tapered (“Dovetail”) Shaft – Indoor Target & Field
The Hemlock Comet is purpose-built for indoor target archery, offering stability, speed, and line-cutting advantage in shorter range shooting. It features a rear-tapered (dovetail) shaft profile, optimised for quick recovery off the bow and tight groupings downrange.
Made from premium hemlock, the Comet typically uses a larger diameter shaft to enhance scoring potential by increasing line-cutting chances—ideal for those competitive 10-ring shots.
Each arrow is fitted with:
3" shield fletchings for stability and fast arrow recovery over short distances
A TopHat 100gn point
An AAE Plastinock
Though designed for indoor performance, the Comet also performs well in field archery, particularly where fast, stable flight is needed in varied terrain.
Available as bare shafts for those who prefer to tune or build their own setups.

Style 3 – Two-Tone Fletching & Cresting Band Finish
Style 3 offers a minimalist, performance-driven look with a custom colour-matched two-tone fletching and cresting band design. As standard, the colours are matched to your chosen fletching configuration:
-
The main colour of the band will reflect the two matching feathers
-
The cresting lines will correspond to the index fletching
For example, if you choose two yellow fletchings and one black, the band will be primarily yellow, with black accent crest lines.
The rest of the shaft is left bare to maintain a clean, traditional profile—unless you opt for the full stain upgrade (available for an additional fee), in any of the following colours:
black, white, yellow, orange, red, blue, purple, mahogany, or walnut.
As with our other styles, customisation is available on request. This includes changes to cresting colours and band combinations.
Style 3 is perfect for archers who prefer a subtle but tailored aesthetic, with clean visual cues that align with your fletching setup—balancing function, tradition, and sharp visual design.
