I've called the same bull in 5 or 6 times, even on the same night multiple times. That must be the dunce in the class.
I am going to save them one at a time.
This was meant to be an educational thread to new archery hunters and to try and make the archery woods better for all of us. If you think an elk that comes into a call and either sees/smells a hunter or gets a truck door slammed in their face doesn't learn something (educated) I think you're wrong. The point I was trying make was to think about how you use your elk calls. I agree that using a bugle at night works to locate a bull for the next day, I've done it too. But I also think calling too much can make animals leave an area or become call shy. If you don't think so try hunting for elk in the Missouri Breaks of Montana sometime. Or pick up a book on elk hunting or attend a seminar about elk hunting and calling. If you think I'm being a crybaby then so be it, just don't be surprised when I approach you in the woods and have a little conversation. That's what we did, we talked to the hunters about the area and the other people hunting and came to a mutual agreement of what not to do. They we're new to this area and appreciated the advice. Funny, some people actually do appreciate advice and don't try and act like an _ss clown.

Because I thought it was you crying about calling a bull in near the road and some tribal members harvested it? I could've sworn that was the original complaint but, if you insist then by all means go ahead what ever makes you sleep better at night. And I'd have to agree with another member here, it sounds to me like somebody crying because they ate tag soup?
"Help Wanted" in need of a person to call in a bull elk for me who also films and photographs the road hunt, also require at least 10 years of experience in elk calling, at least 5 elk calling trophies/competitions won and at least 3 references to verify your ability. Prefer reed calling but will accept terminators and hoochie mamas and any other automatic calls that don't recall skill to operate. Will compensate with a package of ground beef.
