It was reissued in 1937 by another independent producer, J.D. Kendis, as a Jay Dee Kay Production and with the title changed to "The Trail of the Hawk". Until 1937 it was known as "The Hawk".

The film was then presented at grindhouse theatres across the country where Scott and his troupe appeared live on stage before and between showings.
