What's everyone using for a bugle on the westside? If you jump back and for year to year and hunt east and west sides like me, do you use different bugles or just stick with one?
I really need to buy a bugle and start practicing. But every thing I know is rocky mountain elk.
No difference between the elk language of RM or Rooseys bankwalker. I actually asked this question to Larry D Jones when I moved out here from MT in the late 80s.. He said samey same (as somebody said Elknut1 stated) and I've experienced just this after bouncing back and forth between MT and WA for the past 25 years. Same sounds. A guy's just gotta learn to use his calls of choice to a high level of proficiency (not perfect, just good) and more importantly, understand elk language in different scenarios.. Once you understand what elk are saying/desiring, you have a much better chance at responding correctly and putting a big brown guys nose in the dirt. RJ
