The hawk crawler is amazing. I've owned just about every other cart on the market over the last 20 years AND this thing blows the rest away by a LONNNNGGG shot! Light years better then dragging with a sled too, unless you are in deep snow and using snow shoes also.

The dual suspension allows it to have 100% of the weight carried by the frame AND not you. Pivots, great tires, just awesome.

How much did this set you back by?

I just bought a Hawk Crawler cart per recommendations on here but have yet to use it. I'm going moose hunting in a couple of weeks so it may get a workout hauling moose quarters. I'll let everyone know how I made out when I get back. Hopefully we will drop one in a tote road and be able to back right up to it with my truck to load it but that's not the way it usually goes. Lol.

Yes. My brother got drawn for a cow moose tag for the last week of October. If we are not successful, we can go back the following week to try to fill his tag.
I’m so jelly. How are the skeeters and ticks up there this time of year? When I was there in September I wanted to just set myself on fire to get rid of them.
Also I’ve derailed the thread…
I’m super curious to see how the Hawk cart handles a freaking moose. Pics if/when please. It’d be great for Hawk to make some decent products lol.

I think Sheels has the Hawk Crawler on sale right now for $159 if I'm not mistaken. I used one for the first time this year and couldn't believe how well it rolled through the woods. My friends cart had the same problem with the handle wanting to fold over. I think it's a common problem with them. Leave it to Hawk not to address it. I think it's a pretty easy fix though, all you need is a couple of extra nuts and bolts.

That's a great deal. I paid $200 for mine.
