Professional Hunting Products, L.L.C. Pro Hawk



Hunting out of a stand has always presented a unique problem while trying to beat the natural abilities of the deer. We go up a tree to get out of a whitetail's line of sight, which for the most part works well, but we still are concerned with what the deer smells. One of the biggest problems with stand hunting has always been positioning so that the wind was working in your favor through out the day. Usually this meant one of the following options: 1) buying a number of fixed position stands and setting them up in a variety of locations ( this could be very expensive ) 2) using a climbing stand ( not always practical ) or 3) staying put and hoping to get by. There is a fourth option now.

The Pro Hawk by Professional Hunting Products, L.L.C., is a fixed position stand the utilizes a mounting bracket onto which the stand is hung. This provides you with the ability to buy multiple mounting brackets, and attaching them wherever you may choose to hunt. If the wind shifts directions, just disconnect the light weight stand from the mounting bracket and move to your next location, leaving the bracket in place for the next day, the next week or later that afternoon. Buying multiple mounting brackets will cost you a fraction of what you would pay for 4 or 5 stands, and setting up multiple mounting brackets can be done in a very short amount of time, a lot less time than setting up multiple fixed position stands.

Setting up this stand is easy, you simply attach the mounting bracket to the tree with the provided ratchet strap, then attach the stand to the bracket. Once the Pro Hawk is attached to the mounting bracket, you then attach a ratchet strap around the tree as a backup and your ready to hunt from the stand. The seat, which is made of trampoline cloth and comes with a brushed cotton twill covered canvas cushion, folds out of the way for convenience. The stand itself also folds up so that it is flush against the tree.

The seat height is 20 inches and the foot platform measures at 20 7/8 inches x 31 inches, giving plenty of room for both archery and gun hunters. The stand weighs in at a mere 18lbs and can support hunters weighing 300 pounds. The stand folds flat, making it very easy to transport and also for ease of storage.
