Bow for 9 year old daughter

[724wd]

My daughter will be 9 this summer.  She has been shooting since she was 2.  Right now she's shooting a Genesis Mini but has progressed beyond the capabilities of her equipment.  I have been looking at the available ultra adjustable bows:  Diamond Infinite Edge, Bear Cruzer, Bear Cruzer Lite, Mission Menace II, Mission Craze II, Mission Hype, Mission Hype DT, Hoyt Ignite, PSE Elation, PSE Fever, Martin Carbon Stratos CR. 

I have narrowed the search to the Infinite Edge, Bear Cruzer Lite, and Mission Menace II.  My scientific method included all the specs and how they relate to my daughter.  I showed her the candidates and she likes the Bear Cruzer Lite.  In purple.  Left handed.     It looks like a great choice, but the ATA is REALLY short!  27.125"!!!    The Infinite Edge and Menace II are both 31" ATA.  Anyone have an opinion on this?

I'll have a used Bear Apprentice II available for about $100 after today. It has new strings and the stock whisker biscuit still on it. I know it's not on your list but I bet it would be a good choice and cheap.

My 9 year old son has a mission bow that he can adjust draw length and poundage from now till adulthood. It is great. They are a great solution.

That's a good deal on a great bow for a 9 year old.

I bought a Diamond Infinite Edge for my son.
He is a beefy 12yr old but I dialed it way back so I could adjust the cams and start him out easy.
It shot great with 500 spline arrows with 75gr tips.
He is now in the 35-40lb range and the 500 splines smoke right out there.
The Diamond will take her as far as she wants to go.
There is a LH Diamond Razor in the classifieds right now.

I got my daughter a Mission Craze. Really popular at our club for kids bows because they grow with the kids.

Ya, I was looking at the Razor Edge in the classifieds.  My only issue with that is they weight almost 4 pounds.  My daughter has held them before and the mass weight is a bit much for her.  But it's a heck of a deal!  I'd also have to paint it...
