We've been working hard the past few weeks to come up with some big changes to our vendor policies to meet the changing needs of our community. Please see the new vendor rules here: Vendor Access Area Rules
Hawk saddle and platform
- Thread starter enkriss
- Start date
Putting this in retail stores is what’s going to set them apart from everyone else... doesn’t matter if the saddle and platforms are great or light as long as they function, they’ve proved that with the fact that they sell more mobile sticks than any other company out there currently

Im stoked to see what platforms looks like. If its light and decent size it's going to compete well with the other well known brands
I agree. Also depending on the size of the platform, some of the treestand hunters might buy just to have a more mobile set up too.
Yep, absolutely the first thought that came to my mind.
My second thought was that the saddle made his butt look big.
word on the street is the small plateform is just like the artisan outdoor fabrications mini platform
But if we know anything about hawk it will weigh 3 pounds more than advertised!!!

Hopefully carbon climbing spurs go mainstream and the price drops by 75%!!
If they put their stuff in a big box store availability and cost to Canadians will be better.
We need a Canadian distributor of American saddles and sticks and platforms. Like a @DanO

Can't wait to buy one on clearance at Menards and give it a try!
I will stick to my made in the USA saddle and platform. I do think that they will sell a ton of these once they hit the retail stores and get exposure out to the other portion of the hunting community that is not aware of/familiar with saddle hunting.
That's got to be a female right? I mean there is some junk in that trunk!
My take is that it’s going to be interesting from the safety/standards side. First mainstream tree stand manufacturer to release a saddle, how will that affect the smaller guys? More publicity is always a good thing, more competition usually equals innovation & better prices.

I just wonder if/how they are going to sell in stores without any kind of safety certification? 
Stands have to be TMA certified to be sold and there isn’t a standard on saddles yet.

I was wondering the same thing? I thought I had heard somewhere that there was a "summit" of sorts between some saddle manufacturers & TMA? Perhaps an industry insider (ahem, cough cough) has a little more info or is aware if such a meeting occurred?I just wonder if/how they are going to sell in stores without any kind of safety certification?
