  Using the recently introduced recursion relations with covariant
massive-massless shift, we study tree-level scattering amplitudes involving a
pair of massive vector bosons and an arbitrary number of gluons in the massive
spinor-helicity formalism. In particular, we derive compact expressions for
cases in which i) all gluons are of the same helicity and ii) one gluon has
flipped helicity and is colour adjacent to one of the massive particles. We
provide numerous consistency checks of our results including the exact match of
high energy limits with well-known MHV and NMHV amplitudes in pure Yang-Mills
theory. As a corollary, we obtain an alternative novel representation of the
NMHV amplitude.
