So I bought one of Elknut's new bugles called the "Chuckler". It seems that the amount of time he's spent in the woods listening to elk has paid off in spades. As part of the design process I think he was able to rule out the sounds that he didn't think were realistic until he found what he wanted to hear from a grunt tube.
The result is perfection in elk tones. I am a terrible bugler, but I have the benefit of experience chasing elk for plenty of years. This grunt tube sounds very real, and I have no doubt that it has made me a better caller just by virtue of a simple purchase. Look forward to seeing a bull taken with a bow by me this year, because now I finally sound like an elk!
For those that aren't sure how their bugle sounds or are on the fence about calling, this grunt tube is for you. Don't hesitate...just buy it. It's $30 very well spent! You'll thank me, and Elknut, with an elk in the freezer come September.
