Salutations!

Two Mighty Mites were included among the half dozen or so Bowtechs I have owned.

I must admit after shooting them for awhile, I’m not much of a fan of the super shorty bows..those in the 3.25 pound range 32” or so in axle to axle. I’m just not that great of an archer and cannot remain consistently accurate with them. However, I’ve owned super shorties from just about every major manufacturer, and the MM is near if not AT the very top..

It’s extremely accurate(In fact I shot a robinhood with both of Mighty Mites), and smoking fast (I was getting 306 FPS w/ a 29”, 70 pound bow/352 grain arrow with tru-peep, leeches, and a loop on the string). With a set of limbsavers and good stabilizer, noise and recoil were hardly objectionable.

However, unless you really feel that 3 inches of axle to axle length, and half pound will make or break your hunt, I highly suggest going to one of Bowtech’s Pro series riser bows. In particular the Patriot if you are singlecam fan, or if you can wait till January, the Patriot Dual cam bow.

I found the Patriot nearly as fast as the Mighty Mite & noticeably more forgiving (obviously, it’s heavier and longer) on a day to day basis.

Were I to resume shooting the ultralight/ultra-shorties, the MM would be my fist choice.

At any rate, I have, in the past generally bought anywhere from 5-9 different bows per year…I try everything. Since I started trying Bowtech models in the summer of 2000 I’ve grown increasingly fond of them, and honestly have little desire to buy anything else these days. AFAIC, for a total package of reliability, shootability, and performance I have yet to find anything better, at least in MY hands. In addition, and perhaps more importantly, the company is very accessible, and very attentive to their fan base. They are constantly making meaningful improvements to their line-ups, more-so than any other company I’ve dealt with.
