Thanks again to everyone who gave me the good information. I bought a Defender and should be receiving it next week. Man I hate waiting. I'll post my thoughts of the new bow after I have had a chance to put it through it's paces.

So did you shoot one before ordering?

Nope, just decided to try something new! I have shot the Mighty Mite quite a bit, and like the speed. I based my decision on wanting a bow that is lighter than my '02 Patriot and felt that the Defender was a good compromise between the speed of the MM and the smoothness of the Justice (which I did get to fling a few out of). I can't imagine that it will be much of a stretch going from the Patriot to the Defender as far as draw cycle goes, and the MM, Justice, and Defender use close to the same riser (I believe) so I know what to expect dropping to the shorter ATA length. I doubt I will have the same learning curve shooting this as when I went from my old Alpine Siverado wheely bow over to a single cam bow. Of couse my first single cam was the PSE Carrera and it only has a 5 and 7/8" brace height, man was that a change from the 8" or so brace height of the old bows.

I'm sure you will love it as it seems to be a sleeper getting overlooked due to the hype of it's bigger brother. I was just wondering what your thoughts were on it. Guess we'll find out soon enough.
