Well boys and girls, I couldnt close the deal this time around. But still, I had a wonderful time.
Below are some vids I took of calling in a 6x6 who originally was 400 yards off with some cows. I called him into 10 ft, using my Little Dog Coyote Howler and my Sceery Rabbit distress to imitate the bugle and cow calls respectively before scaring him off.
I call this bull, "chuckles" as he had a very unique bugle and almost always chuckled near the end or just for the hell of it. I have some video of me actually using the howler, but the audio is a bit poor, so you cant really here the bull respond all that well.
I had a cow put here head in my blind and smell me, at about 3ft, that was exciting. Saw tons of game, but just couldnt pull it off...next time!
This first video, we just bugled back and forth and he trashed that tree at about 20 seconds into it. He is in the tree line

This second video he really didnt like it when I combined a bugle with cow calls (his cows were calling in the trees, I think he was getting jealous).

I am about 75% sure I jumped a cougar, but couldnt tell 100%.
And here are some turkeys I ran into...
