Comment on Yamaha Viking 700/ VI by Tony Darst

Last year, a buddy I was hunting with shot a feral pig estimated at 350lbs. We were night hunting with thermal scopes, and this was around midnight. It did not take us long to realize there was NO WAY the two of us could get this beast into the back of my Viking. I had to call another friend about 30 minutes away, wake him up, and then go get him to help. Even with 3 of us, it was very difficult to load, it took us a long time and, we all hurt our backs pretty bad; mine still gives me trouble from time to time.

Being an engineer, I was thinking about building something to eliminate this problem, then decided to search the Internet, first. Low and behold, there is BOWDUPLOADERS. Mine arrived two days after ordering, and I just finished the installation. I am VERY GLAD I opted to purchase this rather than build it; it is beautifully designed, engineered, constructed, and finished with a really nice powder coat. And, it fit the bed of my Viking LIKE A GLOVE. In fact, my bed was spray lined when the machine was new, and that made the fit even tighter; I had to use a rawhide mallet to “encourage” it into place. It fit so tight, I am not even sure I needed to install the mounting bolts! I HIGHLY recommend this fine piece of equipment; especially if you hunt by yourself, or are getting on in your years, like me. An injured back just isn’t worth it! Drop Arty a line, and see about getting your copy, today; you will not regret it, and your back with thank you!

Want to tell you what a great product the Bowduploader is. I bought one for my Polaris Ranger and it is without question, one of the best investments i’ve made. This loader is awesome. I purchased mine back in September before the Texas hunting season started and have used it to load 3 deer and 3 wild hogs to this date. The biggest job was loading a 275 pound wild hog last weekend by myself. this loader setup loaded the hog with ease. My son loves it as much as I do. My son is serving in the ARMY and doesn’t get home as much anymore so when he came home one weekend back in September he helped me install it. We loved the father -son time together doing things like the installation of this bowduploader not to mention hunting together. Installation was a breeze and took us maybe 30-45 minutes at the most. When my son isn’t with me I can load these deer and hogs by myself using your well thought out product. Just want to say thanks again for an absolutely awesome product. Sincerely, Doug Potts

I have spinal stenosis and the loader made the hunting season much easier. Great idea you have come up with.

I have this loader on my 2016 Yamaha Viking 700. It is an awsome tool to have. It doesn’t matter if it’s around the house, or working on our club, this lift is very versatile. Everybody who owns a side by side should have this. It’s worth it weight in gold. Thanks, Bowduploaders for making life much easier.

I have used the Bowduploader on my Polaris Ranger 900 to load anything from big 240lb. deer to stumps in the yard. It works flawlessly every time. This is actually my 2nd bowduploader. The first was on my 800 Polaris Ranger. The design and quality is first class not to mention saving your back. You can load 350lbs. with the push of a button in a matter of seconds. The initial install only took about 15 minutes after that its a simple as hooking it on and plugging in 1 plug. I would definetly recommend this product to anyone who uses their ranger for work or hunting.

My purchase was for 570 mid size. Breeze to install. Works wonderfully. Got stuck this spring and the only way out was backwards.I hooked the bowdup loader to a tree and winched my self out. I know that I was not suppose to do that but it worked with no problem. You would have tried it to. Otherwise it was going to be a long walk. I know I was pulling way over 350#. I wasn’t too worried because the loader on the 570 midsize is bolted on. At 58 I tend to work smarter not harder and this loader makes loading deer a snap. Quick shipping and easy instructions and all the wiring, zip ties,hard ware was in the box. I highly recommend.

I recently purchased the 570W model for my 2015 Ranger 570. Overall this product seems to beofgood quality. I have listed my observations below:

Customer service – When you contact Bowduploaders.com you get a real live person to speak with.
Shipping – Shipping was prompt wit emailed invoice & shipping updates.

Product quality – By all appearance the product is made of quality materials, powder coated flat finish, sturdyconstruction, and a warn 2000DC winch.

Ease of Installation- Installation was a easy as the video suggets. The model for my 570 does require it to be bolted in place, but all materials need for installation are included (all the way down to the tie wraps for securing the wire).

Operation – I have used it 2 times thus far to load some stumps into the bed with great results (keeping in mind the 350 lb rating) Waiting for deer season to really put it to the test.

I had some back problems a few years ago and loading deer in a UTV can be a challenge, so I have a Bowdup loader on my Polaris and it works great. It has been installed for 2.5 years and loaded a monster Missouri buck with ease. I have discovered many more uses for it in the past few years. It has loaded fat pine lighter stumps, iron rocks etc… The owner is honest and fair and the product has performed well beyond my expectations. If you have a UTV you absolutely need one.

Ordered this model for the 500 Ranger last year. Installation was a breeze and it fits so perfectly! It sits up out of the way at the perfect location; so now loading that big buck will be effortless! I highly recommend this product at a 5 full stars!
