Ok... I will be the first to fess up - I am #3

Thanks for putting this on again Jason - hope it happens again next year with a better turnout. If possible I would like more feedback and suggestions from the judges on what I can work on.

My Comments:
1: Cow calls good but squeeky on the high end.  Good lip bawls and chuckles
2: External Cow Call sounds decent, chuckles quick, grunts not deep enough
3: Good clean cow sounds(maybe too clean), good high note bugles and voice inflection in bugles
4: High bugles, cow call is one higher tone (work on two part cow sounds)
5: Cow call sounds hollow, grunts are decent, more voice inflection in bugles
7: Cow calls decent but all  the same, bugle is stair-stepping flutey, chuckles are missing the inhale portion

Ouch elk247! I'm OK running out of fuel in elk country, but the last place I want to be trapped is in Vegas!  :bdid:

Thanks to everyone who participated, and congrats to the winners!

With the contest ending so close to hunting season I slacked on getting the prizes out. Some have used the discount from me but if your prize included a Tshirt from the elk101 crew please provide me and Corey the size so we can get them shipped.
