Roy:

I just remembered your archery hunt for the Strip starts this Friday. Travel safe, keep hydrated, and stay focused (that big one is there, you just have to find him!). Can't wait to hear the good news on your return ...

Shoot straight (as always!) ...

Did you have time to scout? Seems like the results & the hunt dates aren't very far apart.

LAST EDITED ON Aug-22-08 AT 05:59PM (MST)[p]Roy called me this morning... 15 minutes into his hunt and he has a 31" 4x4 down. Spot and stalk. He said it grosses 192 and should net 187. He's heading to Colorado to kill a bigger one!! I'll let him tell the rest when he returns. Ed F

WOW good for Roy i can't wait to see the pictures

AZ402 · Aug 23, 2008

I thought Roy told me 197 gross and 192 net, regardless it's a STUD......

LAST EDITED ON Aug-23-08 AT 05:43PM (MST)[p]I had the honor to help Roy on this once in a lifetime hunt. I had never met Roy until Thursday evening. We had only chatted through e-mail or pm. In the short time we hunted together I realized what a great hunter and person he was. All though it was a short lived hunt it is one that all people involved will never forget. I will let Roy tell the rest of the story. Final score 197 7/8 gross and 192 4/8 Net. Thanks again Roy.

It was definitely a FUN hunt......all 15 minutes of it!

I've always said I'm one of the luckiest bowhunters around. I think Kory knows what I mean now.

Met some GREAT guys (Kory, Garrett, and Brady) who are now my friends. They made my very first guided experience nothing like what I expected......no pressure, let me hunt (stalk), listened to my jibber jabber after the buck was on the ground.....heck, it was just like hunting with long time hunting buds. I'll post up some photos and some details as soon as I can get them downloaded.

For any bowhunter that ever gets drawn for the Strip and needs some help in that vast country, Kory Bundy's crew is second to none, IMO.

Roy,
Thanks for everything. I am glad to hear you made it home ok. What does your family think of your trophy? I just finished burning the pictures to CD's. Thanks again for allowing us to tag along and have fun. Great hunts come because of great clients. I will never forget this hunt and how much fun we had, or garrett's new house in Cedar City

C-YA when you come through town from Colorado, and it doesn't matter what time it is.

Here's some photos of the buck. Kory probably has some better ones, as I think he took over 170?

Hope you enjoy them.

Congrats Roy on a great buck! Now I wouldn't have bet against you getting a great deer on the strip but I sure would have bet you wouldn't have done it so quickly! Good things come to those that wait. Good luck on your Co. trip it looks like you've kicked this year off in style! Go get em!
