Some may think the ATA is too short to be forgiving, but then look at the size of the wheels. The wheels are what are actually holding the string, vs the axle. Shorter ata but bigger wheels, can also hit the treestand with the bigger wheel. Pick the bow that fits you best and you have the most confidence in. Be careful of the bows surroundings and you will be fine.

Not ugly enough to be a Hoyt. Hoyts are to bows what the Super Vinci is to shotguns. Decent but as ugly as they come. I’ve shot the Triax and it does not shoot like a short bow. Like the above poster said with the cams being so large it’s not really that short of a bow

The cams look as big as a frisbee.

I shot one last week. Hands down the smoothest and quietest bow I ever shot. Wish they was available for purchase I would’ve bought one

I think I’m going back to Mathews after this year. I held a few at Marks last week and they still feel great in the hand. I need to go shoot a few models and decide on a model.

I thought I'd love a short bow for hunting, but after owning a few I always ended up going back to something around 33" ATA. Not sure what it is but I can't hold the little bows near as well or shoot anywhere near as good with small ATA bows.

This only issue I can forsee would be cam lean. However it looks like a nice bow.

I plan to shoot one soon.

Ive been shooting a 30 in ATA mission since I started. Fits great from shootong over the rail in my climber. Less forgiving at long range, but long range is just for practice anyways.
