Description: I wanted to share an amazing hunt of Roy's I had filmed and edited as a sample for a TV show, Beast Mode Bowhunting, that never came to fruition. I had networks that wanted to have me part of their line up, so I submitted this as an example of what Beast Mode Bowhunting was to me. They didn't like it. They said in this sample they expected me to be playing the role of a larger-than-life hunting "super hero" training hard and do extreme hunts. I told them that I was no super hero and I wouldn't be acting like one and this hunt of Roy's was as extreme and intense as it gets and if I did the show, he would be a big part of it. They said that isn't what they had in mind and I said, well, I guess we don't need to worry about the show then. And, that was that. For me, I had hosted TV shows already: Eastmans' Bowhunting Journal TV, Elk Chronicles and Team Elk and been on other hunting shows a number of times. I didn't really care, and still don't care, about just doing another show, unless it was exactly what I wanted to do and what I wanted to do was a show with Roy. Anyway, since we couldn't come to an agreement on the show concept, the opportunity went away and Roy and I focused on other things. No biggie to us. Nothing could stop of from doing what we love, adventure bowhunting, TV or not. Since then this hunt has been sitting here and beings it is so good, I felt inclined to share it for free on YouTube will all my friends and followers. Hope you like it. #riproyroth #roytough
