Game Cart

[crazywednesday]

Last year there was a guy at the Portland Sportsman Show that made expensive aluminum carts you tow with your bike. Any have his contact info or website?

Was it HawkeyeBilt? They're website doesn't seem to exist anymore, but I did find a Facebook page:

I used one of the Hawkeye Bilt carts last SEP (borrowed it from a buddy) and they are top notch.  Problem with the Hawkin's carts is that you can't contact the builders.  I had the dad's number last fall but don't anymore.  Their webpage is down still, and, the numbers on the facebook page are incorrect.  All this said, I just purchased a game cart that I think may be on the same level (perhaps a bit better in some ways) than the Hawkeye Bilt.  They're called Meatpacker carts and built in Rochester I believe.  I pick my new cart up next weekend from an OR archery shop.  Will do a quick report when I finally have time to drive down and pick it up.  RJ

The Hawkeye trailer contacts are Kent (Dad) Hawkins and Mike (Son) Hawkins.  They are out of Oregon near the city of Clatskanie.  The last phone number I had for Kent is now disconnected.  Dad was disabled and used the cart building as a method to supplement his disability and SS payments and Mike is a timber faller.

I sure a little search you could pull something off the internet.

Simple design but I think it could be lightned up a bit, and enlarged some for more capacity plus and a solid floor in it. 

Time to buy a wire feed welder. 

What's the weight of it phantom?

Good looking cart and the attachment hitch is mounted in the right place, on the seat post, which provides much more strength/stability than those which mount on the rear axle.

how much did cart cost you phantom?

I bought the cart for 400 bones.  Not sure of the exact weight yet, probably won't be able to drive down and pick it up till next weekend.
