Well sure enough before I could even finish my first bugle I got a response. I figured it was echo but nope it wasn't. He bugled back 3 times in 20 seconds. :drool:
I figured I'll practice on the "safe" skok bulls :chuckle:

Music to my ears.
I could listen to them all day....and night.
I was actually shocked to get a response this early. But I know the elk were there and that's why I stopped where I did. You could hear the cows talking too.

elk bugle and chirp and such same as horses whinny its part of communication and they will do it all year round, they really wind up with the bugles during the rut but can be heard other times of the year. I heard one about a month ago he sounded lost :chuckle: probably a young bull on his own for the first time :chuckle:

Your diaphragm will ship tomorrow. Then you will probably have them in your lap. :chuckle:
I don't want to start a huge debate but if your goal is to kill that bull be careful about calling too early too often :twocents:

Now imagine a large gymnasium filled with about 500 people and one person talking on a mic to the whole audience and all of a sudden you hear this loud bugle rip through the audience! :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: I was sitting about 10 people over from this gentleman who had his cellphone on extra loud ringer and his ring tone set to an elk bugle and forgot to turn his ringer off, classic! :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

It's my understanding that majority of the Wetside Tribes seasons don't start til Aug. 1st to Sept. 15. :dunno: Maybe I'm wrong and who knows, maybe you just happened to come across some poachers? :dunno:
