The demo I had was fast, quiet, accurate and pretty darn tame for such a short, light, fast bow. They draw a tad stiffer at the back end than a Patriot or other N-cam bow due to how the cam is rotated, all the MIghty Mites do.

If it weighed a pound more bare I'd have bought one..just too light for my tastes (but I realize most people don't like a heavy bow, and I do)

If you are looking for a shorty, it's one of the best and probably the fastest you'll find (if such things concern you)

I just bought a MM VFT a little while ago, I love it, great bow. I thought it would be harder to shoot because of the smaller ATA, but I shoot it better than I did my darton. I think it's because of the grips fitting my small hands better. This bow is very effecient at lower draw weights and shorter draw lengths. If you are a small framed hunter I highly recommend it. I have a bow review on another sight that I did of mine. Maybe I will copy and paste it here for others that interested.

The only problems I have had with mine are things tend to vibrate loose on it. What do expect for a bow that puts out so much energy though.

I agree, another pound of mass weight would be lovely...

Miss Mighty Mite? Is that some kind of beauty pageant?


Sorry, I could not resist. I thoroughly enjoy shooting mine. It is going to be, without a doubt, my hunting bow for this season. I put the Pro 40 down back at the beginning of August so that I could shoot the MM exclusively. Great little bow. As Jeff stated, very little recoil and a quick little design. I am not having any problem with accuracy either though I made my setup as anti-nock pinch/anti-cant as possible.

One fine, well made little bow.

Jeff,,, just bolt on a good and solid 2 piece bow quiver along with 4 or 5 arrows and you'll have that extra pound you think you need to make that 15 yard shot The extra weight on my Justice does make it steadier but I've been shooting it alot without the quiver and still at 60 yards,,,, a rabbit would be in serious danger

Russ,

UGGHH..I hate two piece/permanent quivers. Actually I would probably go with a set of X-treme Limbsavers to add the weight I need if I ever went that route.

And yeah..for most hunting I realize that 15-25 yard accuracy is all I need and I'm certainly proficient enough to kill a deer with a little shorty like that, but I spend much more time shooting year round than I do at deer...this is where I get frustrated...shooting day in and day out at all ranges. I know some guys can do it, but I'm too much of a sucky shot to be consistent with most of them past 30 yards..I've got nerves of Jello

After shooting about 1000 arrows through it -- I still can't put it down. IMO - the MM VFT rivals the Outback in speed, quietness, hand shock, AND looks. I can't see myself getting rid of it - EVER!
