Hawk Steel Hang-On Adjustable Hunting Game Deer Tree Stand

So many people complaining about difficult assembly. One guy said he pulled a muscle in his back trying to install one of the seat supports. Maybe take up board games as a hobby instead. I just assembled two of these in about an hour. Instructions were clear (though mine were missing a few plastic washers - just buy a few). Very comfortable seat and the stand is solid. No, it’s not aluminum as one dude complained. If you want aluminum buy the Kickback “Helium” model for $60 more. One note: buy a couple of good ratchet straps to secure to the tree. The one strap provided can’t be tightened securely enough for my liking. Very solid stand for less than half the price of a Millennium.

Love this stand. I have a couple of them. Very comfortable. I am 6ft, 175 and feel very solid in the stand. I bought the cruz bracket for the second one and that made hanging it much easier. I will likely buy more as needed. Two little areas I could see to improve it. 1) add arm rests. I know this is personal preference so not a big deal. 2) figure out a way for the seat to go up and down and stay up without having to adjust the strap around the tree. Once again, this a minor issue. Great stand and highly recommend for hunters who hang and leave the stand all season.

I’ve been using the Hawk COMBAT Tree Stand for a few weeks now, and it’s been a solid addition to my hunting gear. The build quality is excellent—its steel construction feels incredibly sturdy, and the large 21x27-inch platform offers plenty of room to move around. The seat is padded and adjustable, making it comfortable for long hunts.That said, the seat itself is a bit on the small side. As a bigger guy, I found it a little snug, so it may not be the best option if you need extra room to sit comfortably. It’s functional, but I’d prefer a wider seat for better support.The stand anchors securely to the tree thanks to the Tree Digger teeth, and the powder-coated finish helps keep it silent and durable. One recommendation: practice hanging this stand close to the ground when you first set it up. The process isn’t overly complicated, but it does take a little practice to get it right and feel confident.Now for the downside—the included harness is terrible. It feels cheap and uncomfortable, and I wouldn’t trust it for serious use. If safety is a priority (and it should be), I’d highly recommend upgrading to a better-quality harness for peace of mind.Overall, this treestand is a fantastic value at its price point. It’s durable, quiet, and functional, even if the harness and smaller seat leave room for improvement. If you don’t mind those minor drawbacks, it’s a great pick for hunters looking for a reliable option.

Very disappointing from Hawk. I run a ton of hang ons and these are garbage. Fittings are loose, material seems cheap, not the normal Hawk product. Bushings didn’t fit snug on the top or bottom. Probably why they had a 2 pack on sale.

Love this stand. Easy to hang. Super sturdy. Perfect size platform. Not too heavy. If you are between the Hawk hang ons that are similar this one has the best balance of platform size and weight. Not too big to haul in and not to small where you can barley move. Seat is super comfortable for long sits as well

I wanted a semi mobile budget friendly unit that I could also sit in for longer sits and not get sore. Compared to the cheap box store units that I’m used to, it’s great. Cushion is comfy, I would recommend buying the separate hanger, makes hanging it a lot easier and quieter. For the price I think it’s great, you’re not buying a $300 stand so just have a realistic expectation.

My son loved it.

Great quality deer stand. Will be purchasing more before next season
