I don't give companies second chances. They may be the best in the world now, but sold junk so wouldn't give them another $.

I do give company's chances but not unless I see them heading in the right direction not the wrong direction. I'm afraid Hawk is heading in the wrong direction. What is your take???????????

100% offshored manufacturing and it will never come back stateside. Or at least I would be astounded if it did.

Hawk is only in the saddle game because it’s A) stealing market share from traditional tree stands and B) wants a piece of that pie. They’re not doing it for their love of saddle hunting, that’s for sure.

You will probably see some other tree stand manufacturers beginning to dip their toes into the saddle market over the next year or two as well.

I agree, one good thing is capitalism does drive innovation. I just hope the Made in America companies keep up with innovation so they stay competitive.

I have a set of Hawk Heliums I purchased new 3 years ago and customized. I had zero quality issues with them, but have heard and seen the issues on later models, so I personally would not go this route now either.

How many people do you think have already pre ordered a platform that the manufacturer won’t even release a picture of but are expecting to ship in 30 days

We started pre-ordering July 20th at Bowhunterboxclub. Needless to say, it’s frustrating that it’s now mid September and we have heard for the last 2 weeks they are shipping next week

Long ways away from Vietnam
 
Platform looks like it will be a slip and slide when it gets wet.

HARD PASS!!!
 
Great price. I think they'll sell great. For $200 those guys that are coming from climbing stands have a platform and sticks...
