One of my favorite features in the vim out liner was the ability to
"hoist" a sparse tree into a new temporary buffer.
Is there a way to do this in org-mode?

Of course there is. This is emacs. ;)
Use C-x n s to narrow to the current subtree.
Use C-x n w to go back to the whole buffer (widen).
Use C-c x b to create a new buffer containing only the current subtree.
See http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.php#indirect-buffers
Note: I can't recall if the vim outliner's "hoisting" includes
temporarily/artificially "raising" the headline level/indentation of the
narrowed subtree. Org-mode does not do this (and intentionally so).
Best,
Matt

C-c C-x b puts the current headline and descendants into a new
buffer. Editing can continue there, but it is just a view into the
total file.

O.K. I just realized I missed the "sparse tree" in your question. I
assume you mean by this org-mode definition of "sparse trees" (i.e.,
trees with visibility limited to certain TODO, tags, or regexp matches)?
I don't recall anything like org-mode sparse trees in the vim outliner,
but it may have changed since I last used it.
You can export only the visible portions of an org-mode outline by
typing "C-c C-e v [SPACE]", but this will create a new, independent
org-mode buffer. Any changes you make in this buffer will not affect the
original file.

I seemed to have mixed my metaphors AND my text editors in my original
statement.
C-x n s
C-x n w
C-x n b
All work perfectly! And combined with the export command:
C-c C-e v
I can now print only the portions I want.
Thanks everyone!
