I will bugle using my coyote howler (usually in response to a bugle), but only to mess with and hopefully get closer to look at big bulls....its a spike only unit I hunt, so I mainly cow call to locate, then put the stalk on.

Good luck with your draw tag.

I use my bugle aggressively and have great success on West side elk. However with that said, i think its important to know what your saying when your using a bugle and when to use it effectively. Only time in the woods with elk, will teach you this.

I had the clockum big bull in 06 snuck up on a herd. I was quiet and when i got to one side of the jack pines and wanted to pull the bull through the trees, I got all set up( he was screaming his head off the whole time) I through out a bugle to pull him in he grabbed his ladies and ran away. I was within 40 yards. Guess i sounded to big???

   1) If you dont need to call, dont. Having said that, very few successful hunters I know NEVER call during the rut.


you should meet more of us. :P

love laughing at human buglers who don't hear anything and leave a good spot. :tung:

I got a helpful little tip last year that got the bulls talking when everything i tried previously didnt work....i got out very early to locate them...3 am.....the first spot i was at i bugled 10 different times...5-10min between bugles and each time would be different than the last.....locator bugle, then a challenge bugle, spike squeel....i would try differnt tones.....i would also throw in some estuss whines with them.....the whole point of this series is to find that one bugle that will set the bull off.....when i was told this my first thought was its the opposite of what i was told to do...but figured why not try it and what do you know after the 10th bugle from me i got a deep raspy reply and he kept at it for several hours.
