Scott: I wanted to thank you again for the great week of mule deer hunting. We both felt that Jeff worked as hard as any one could to put us on deer. There was never a day we didn't see deer. On the last two days he was even busting the thick stuff to get me a chance at a deer. He is a great guide. I think it is likely that we will schedule another hunt for 2008. Once I know for sure I will let you know. -- Scott Jones 10/27/07 Scott: We arrived safely in Michigan yesterday afternoon after a pretty bumpy ride on the car ferry from Milwaukee. Other than sore rear ends, we were in fair shape; however, I don’t expect the dogs to move much for the better part of the week. Both Jeff and Mike did a great job with guiding and keeping us fed and we certainly found enough birds to keep things interesting. As far as I’m concerned, it was a perfect balance of birds and cover for working pointing dogs. We never had an issue with birds being bunched up to the point that the dogs went haywire, but we never hunted for more than a couple hours without having bird contacts. Both Craig and I really liked hunting the sharptails in the pasture ground and CRP and my dad was very happy with the pheasant numbers. It was also great to see huns, even if my dad was the only one who managed to hit them. I need to do some calendar checking, but I’m pretty certain that we’ll be back for the pheasant opener next year if you’ll have us. You can tentatively pencil in a group of three for the opening week next year and I will confirm with a deposit check next month. Thanks again for a great time and feel free to provide my contact information to anyone who requests a reference prior to booking a hunt. Please pass this along to Jeff and Mike as I don’t have their email addresses. -- Brian Brenton 10/22/07 Scott and Cindy, Thank you for a great week of hunting. We were truly hunting this week and we both had a great time. I am thrilled with my Mule Deer and Gary is happy with his Antelope. We both couldn’t connect on the quad smackdown but sure had a fun time trying. You should probably pencil us down for the same week next year. Of course, Gary gave me an “I told you so” about moving his blind on the last night. We got to the Super 8 in Minot last night at 12:40 am and left the hotel at 3:45am. Sounds like $20/hr for a nap. Got home to PA at 4:00pm Minot time. A long day. If you are having a very very slow day and are looking for a little job, could you possibly P&Y score my mule deer. I already had a few friends asking for the numbers. Let me know when you deliver the heads to Minot and I will call Bickler’s. My wife has a request for the head. Thanks again. --Chip Czulada 9/27/07 Hi Scott and Cindy, We got home safely. Got out of Minot an hour late, missed our middle leg but still were able to catch our last leg on time. Got home at 9:15 our time. I will say thank you for a very special time after the glow wears off but I want to let you know that we had a great time and will always cherish the fond memories of our time with you guys. It was fun! Scott, be safe and good luck on your hunt with Jeff! My best to you all. Regards. -- Rick Holka 9/30/07 Scott and Cindy, I hope all of ya'll are doing well. I just wanted to take a minute to let you two know that I have been to a lot of hunting camps all over the world, but never have I enjoyed myself more that I did with Sioux Pass Outfitters. I came away from there with a great deer and even better than that, great FRIENDS! I hope all goes well for the rest of the seasons. I am looking forward to seeing ya'll soon. -- Hal Shaffer, President, On Target Productions, Rock Hill, SC Scott & Cindy, Thank you so much for your kind hospitality and a great hunting experience. It was really a great hunt and was a lot of fun for both me and my brother. Both of us were overly satisfied with the hunt and will certainly be looking out into the future to do it again. Next time I will probably shoot that heavy horned 8-pointer if the opportunity arises. Obviously neither of us shot the deer we were looking for, but we certainly had more than 100% opportunity to shoot some great trophies. Holding out for some of the big trophies that we had seen can be tough sometimes, but neither of us wanted to end the hunt without the deer that we wanted. Considering the huge quantity of deer sightings that we witnessed every day, it made it even harder to release the arrow. You have some great property out there and I am sure it will only get better in the future. Maybe you should have more hunters try the alternative headgear that I used on our last night. I thought that would bring out the big ones. Even considering the blizzard and torrential rain, the trip was what we expected. Next time we will be better equipped for an early October Montana hunt. Blizzard, warm sun and relentless rain all will be considered. -- Chip Czulada, 2005 / Archery hunt Hi Scott, I just wanted to let you know again how great a time we had on our 50th Birthday Trip. You, Jeff, Alton, and Mike made the trip what it was. Everyone there made us feel so comfortable and at ease that whether we were in camp or field it was always a pleasurable time.We still can't stop talking about it and brag on Sioux Pass Outfitters to everyone we talk to. We are working on plans for scheduling another hunt as soon as possible and will get back to you as quick as we can. Your services and the absolutely beautiful area you have to hunt make for a fabulous hunting experience. Feel free to give my name or the name of any of our party as references. Have no doubt you will receive nothing but glowing recommendations. The variety and amount of game seen along with Jeff's and Alton's ability to spot and judge deer was incredible. I'll be in touch as soon as I can about our next hunt. Thanks again from all of us for a great time. -- Steve Strohmier, 2005 Dear Scott, I will not be able to come out till the end of Jan or the 1st of Feb. for a coyote hunt, so I'll make arrangements to get out there just after that. -- George P.S. I copied an e-mail that I sent to a hunting friend in reference to my hunts in Montana, I thought you would like to see it. Here it is: Bob, I did not shoot a deer in Montana on the second trip. I did see many 120 to 140 class that I could have shot, but I wasn't there for them. We made several stocks on 155 to 170+ bucks that always made the right moves for themselves. I have some great pictures of some that I passed on. I will send some pictures when I can get Georgie to help me. When I look at some of the pictures I ask myself WHAT WAS I THINKING?! But I chose not to shoot and I do feel pride in the fact I held to my standards all the way to the end. I saw many more than I would have if I had lowered my standards. I could have shot several 130's every day I was there. The second hunt was especially nice because I had Scott to myself for most of the time and we got to talk allot about all kinds of stuff. I like him, he is a good person as well as a great guide and outfitter. Well, got to go. -- George Thanks again for a superb hunt. I really enjoyed the hunt, food, accommodations, and your hospitality. Jeff really worked hard to put us on deer. In case you didn't know, he has outstanding eyes for spotting deer. His dry sense of humor, skill at driving around angus during a snow storm and patience with putting up with my old bones were certainly appreciated. Keep up the great work. Maybe I'll visit one day for a fishing trip. Thanks. -- Jim Huggins 2004 I just wanted to take a moment to thank you, Scott, and Jeff, Mike, and Cindy for an amazing hunting experience. As a hunter who has traveled a great deal of the country, I must tell you it is an amazing change to find an outfitter who not only delivers everything they represented in terms of number and size of game, but actually far exceeded those claims as well as the client expectations. Besides the staggering amount of trophy deer we saw on a daily basis the scenery and landscape is without a doubt some of the most beautiful in the country. Your personal attention and the unparalleled knowledge of the land and scouting preparation shows the professionalism you and your staff has and is why all those who hunt with you are so eager to rebook the following year. I can’t imagine there are many other "fair chase" places to hunt in the country that could compare to yours in terms of quality of game, ethics, friendliness, hard work, scouting and deer patterning, land knowledge, beauty of surrounding area, or value. We really feel blessed with the time we were able to share with you and your family this year, and are eagerly anticipating next year’s hunt. Please pass on good wishes to Cindy, Jeff, and Mike. As well as feeling free to pass on my contact info to any potential customers who wish talk some very satisfied clients. Look forwarded to hearing from you soon. Thanks and God Bless. -- Raymond L Rairigh Jr., Tampa, FL Just a note to let you know that I had a great time hunting with you last week and I know John did too. Everything was near perfect. My only complaint was that the northern lights/aurora didn't act up. I guess I could have asked you to turn them on, but didn't want to impose on you knowing you were busy enough taking care of our hunting needs. (grin) Anyway, the food was very good and Mike was entertaining and attentive to our needs, the accommodations were ideal, the meat processor did a great job, and Brian did a fantastic job. Also, I had a fun time just watching the bucks chase the does, especially the little spike buck near the ranch house, not to mention trying to pheasant hunt with competition from the hawks. Thanks again for doing an excellent job. I hope to see you again in the future for another hunting trip or possibly a fishing trip. I really want to see how you fillet pike. -- Jim Huggins I've been on a pure venison diet since I got back. The processor did a good job and those northern deer just taste great. Had a great time and I'm really looking forward to next year. (I'll have a deposit for you early January.) Thanks for everything. -- John Huggins Thank you Cindy for the pictures, you’re a lifesaver! Guess Scott was right about there being 160+ B&C white tail bucks that the rancher didn’t know about. -- George Just looked through the photos - great album! Especially good shots of Tracy right after he shot his deer. We took our time coming back - spent two nights on the road and got back noon Saturday. Thanks again for the great time. I can't see how you could expect the hunting to be any better. For me, the disappointment of flubbing my deer shot was more than outweighed by the adventure of that last day of hunting. But it's y'all's hospitality and friendship that really makes the trip - not the kill count. I know plenty of people here that hunt out West, but nobody that has as much fun as we do with the Sundheims. -- John Walker The hunt it was way beyond anything I thought it would be. What more can in say -- thanks. The girls all loved the antelope we had for supper last night. You both really make a person feel at home and your family members and friends who stopped by were the same great people all the way around. Was 1364 miles out and was 1394 on way home and took three more hours at slower speed but was more relaxing. Hope the rest of you hunters have at least half as good of time as I had while I was there. They will be more then pleased. -- Les Scott helped charter our six-party "women-only" fishing trip to Hell Creek. It was great and he was very professional (although he hasn't figured out how to stop the rain). We would go again without a second thought. Great Job, Scott!! -- Beverly Harris, Sandy Birkland, Darla Wade, Miles City. Thanks to Scott's determination and expertise I was heading home with my tag on a nice buck instead of in my pocket. If you’re looking for a super deer bowhunt, with opportunities at lots of animals, I can highly recommend Scott Sundheim. -- Tom Tietz, Edersbow.com If Scott tells you that you are going to see a certain size deer, expect to see that or better. He is good with people and such a pleasure to be with. He can make a bad day fun. -- Jim Conley, Orlando, FL please e-mail your comments to: sund@midrivers.com |
