Comet TD66 recurve bow and kit

Comet TD66 recurve bow and kit

This is a used but excellent condition bow, arrows, case and quiver. Ideal starter kit.

The Comet TD66 (marketed by Asahi Archery/Yamaha in vintage markets) is a highly regarded 66-inch beginner to intermediate recurve bow. Known for its smooth draw, forgiving geometry, and durable takedown design, it is an excellent vintage choice for target archers who want a premium feel without a high-end price tag.

Key Specifications

Bow Length: 66 inches (Ideal for a draw length up to 28-29")
Draw Weights: Typically available in 18 to 36 lbs (depending on the specific limbs acquired)
Riser: Classic, stable design (often made from high-quality cast aluminum or magnesium)
Type: Traditional Takedown Recurve

Pros

Smooth Draw Cycle: Offers virtually zero hand shock and stacks very little, even for archers with longer draw lengths.
Takedown Versatility: Easy to assemble and transport, with the ability to upgrade limbs as your strength and skills improve.
Accuracy: Features a geometry that sits very steady in the hand, aiding significantly in shot consistency.

Cons

Vintage Availability: As a discontinued model, you will primarily find these used on marketplaces like eBay rather than in standard retail stores.
Non-ILF (International Limb Fitting):The limb fitting system is proprietary to Asahi/Yamaha, meaning you cannot easily swap modern ILF limbs onto the riser.
