Was up in Hancock on Sat evening. Saw a few nice Bulls, I pulled off to look over the hill, and spotted a doe, so I'm looking at her, and off to my left I see movement. Look over, 7x8 bull, 75 yards away. And he bugles at me!! So I grabbed my bugle out of the truck, and blew at him. Only got a chuckle back from him, but he hung around for 15 minutes looking around. Was pretty cool.

I rolled in the mud and pissed all over myself today .

I've been bugling around the house for months.......wife has been non-responsive to my them so far.   :chuckle:
That might be the best post I've seen on this forum...and I'm having the same experience with my bugling at home

As posted elsewhere, the Yakima bulls are going crazy this morning.  Colder temps and rain.  They are all fire up.  I bet I heard a thousand bulls singing.

Sunday morning sitting in the deer blind in 328 they were sounding off as well.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

I was out this weekend with friends and family between taneum and manashtash. Didn't hear any bagles down low but snuck away to get up top and saw a bull with a cow and two other lobe cows. Think I saw Denton from Rock Creek up at quartz mtn.

Seen a 340" bull in the middle of the highway just now. Other bulls in the sticks are going nuts tonight.

Yesterday while I was in the woods, stuffed under my truck changing a flat tire in the pouring rain I heard a bugle that was close enough to startle me.  Never did see him but I also never saw another soul in there. Might be going back with daughter in tow.

That was just me out practicing my calling techniques.

Are you sure it was a 342" bull?
