  • The team at Abbey Archery has been running at full steam with another week of big orders arriving in store, with many exciting times ahead.
  • First cab off the rank was our Spot Hogg order that included all of the usual suspects as well as the new Triple Stack models. These are up on our website now and available for immediate despatch.
  • Next in was our shipment from SKB bow cases. There are 4 models to choose from including a recurve case to suit all budgets and are now up on our bow cases web page.
  • Our latest B3 release order has arrived including the highly anticipated BG Ghost release, designed in conjunction with Mathews Pro, Braden Gellenthien.

  • Our trusted string supplier, GAS Bowstrings has produced another shipment of high quality bowstrings, made in a multitude of colours out of premium BCY materials with super tight tolerances. GAS are a truly premium product and an excellent addition to your bow.
  • COVID-19 Update. Our stores are back to normal for fully vaccinated customers but if you are unvaccinated, we can still serve you from outside our store. We welcome phone, email & online orders but urge you to please make an appointment if you want a bow setup. Stay safe.
  • Freight update Sydney port still has absenteeism & strikes due to union pay demands. Sydney wharfies are paid an average $172,000 on a 35 hour roster and work less than 200 days a year. Many ships are waiting over a month to berth. Our freight costs continue to rise alarmingly. Thanks for your patience & understanding.
  • Bowtech has just released two exciting new target bows for 2020 - the Reckoning 38 and the Specialist II. This year they have really hit the nail on the head with some fantastic options for target archery. Both bows are available in an array of eye catching colours and also take advantage of the Clutch performance grip system.
  • The eagerly awaited Hoyt 2020 Target launch has come and gone, leaving some exciting bows in its wake.
    • First up is the Invicta Series that has taken target compound designs to an even higher level. Features such as an adjustable cable guard, extended length riser for more stability, 2 arrow rest mounting holes for positive lockdown, parallel laminated limb design, zero tolerance limb pockets, two different axle to axle lengths and exceptional performance generated via the new DCX cam and proven SVX cam. Both the Invicta 37 and Invicta 40 include Hoyts' modular grip system that not only lets you customise grip angle to suit your shooting style, but now includes three extra grips that give an archer the opportunity to reduce drawlength by 1/8". This is handy when extra adjustment is needed between 1/2" module settings or to simply tighten up your form when just that small amount of adjustment is required.
    • Next up is the FX Comp. A target bow designed with the smaller stature archer in mind. This bow is set to perform at a high level with cams that are maximised for efficiency. At a drawlength of only 27" the FX Comp can reach speeds of up to 309 fps with the SVX cam. The FX Comp is also available with either the DCX cam in 65% or 75% let-off or the SVX cam in 65% let-off. As with the Invicta, the bow comes in 9 target colours that include; Satin Black, Satin Championship Red, Satin Cobalt Blue, Rally Green, Orange Torch, Silver Ice, Teal, Slate Grey and Gold. BlackOut is also available on request. If you are under 28.5" the FX Comp could be your next perfect match for 3D and target archery.
    • All bow are now able to be ordered. For further information take a read through our web listings or call and speak with one of our staff at either Castle Hill or Sumner Park.
  • The Hoyt recurve launch has come and gone with two new risers hitting the market for 2020. These being the Formula Xi and Grand Prix EXCEED. Both risers feature all new String Tension Technology, allowing archers to customise the feel of their limbs.
  • Mathews is in the building! A bumper shipment of Mathews has arrived into our warehouse to restock the shelves with Traverse and Vertix bows. The Vertix truly is something else with its super convenient Switchweight technology.
  • A new shipment of AAE equipment has arrived including arrow rests, nocks and vanes. This order contains our first lot of the all new AAE Trad vane in 4 inch. These vanes will be uploaded onto our website very soon.
  • BowTech is due to arrive in coming days with stocks of the ultra fast Realm SR6, value packed and Carbon Icon Deluxe Package and highly innovative Reckoning, in various target colours.
  • Make sure to check out our Specials page for some great bargains. Standout specials this week are the TEK Target sights and the large diameter Easton Full Bore Shafts.
  • The legendary Sylvester Stallone reached out to Bear Archery specifically to request the use of Bear Archery bows in the Rambo: Last Blood movie. Now you can place an order for your very own Rambo: Last Blood Limited Edition Takedown (see image below), exclusively from Abbey Archery. Call us toll free 1800 883 664 for order details. ⁣
