Just ordered my first set of Elk diaphram calls! :IBCOOL: :IBCOOL: Super excited to get practicing for next year. How hard are diaphram calls to learn once you get them for all you elk hunters out there.. ?
Ordered the Bully Bull Grunt Tube, Temptress cow call, All-Star, Raging Bull, and Mellow Yellow Momma.
I should be good to cover just about everything no? :dunno:
-
Took me awhile to get used to the diaphragm calls but once you figure it out you will thinks its real easy now I just love using diaphragm calls and practice them at work all the time lol

Yes those calls should cover it. Learning to call is only about 25% of the game. Knowing WHEN to call and which sound to make is the other 75%. There are lots of good videos online, calling seminars to attend that will help a ton. Nothing beats experience and time in the elk woods. The last two weeks of September are magical. :tup:

I read the thread and started practicing in my office, people around me must think "this guy is going nuts" :chuckle: :chuckle:
I sent you a PM.

Order elk nuts CDs and memorize them...it will put you way ahead of the game....I heard about them 5 years into elk hunting and wish I had them my first year

Half the battle with theh calls are getting used to them in your mouth with out gaging :puke:
Once you get past that, its all about learning "how" and most importantly, "when" to call.

These are the best out there IMO. The only 2 I carry! You get out of them what you put in. Practice, practice, practice. I used Elknuts vids to help teach me. Im very confident in my calling.

I cant for the fricken life of me figure out how to even make a sound, let alone the right sound. :bash: Props goes out to all u guys who have it down, Its not easy.
My girl picked up one of my all-star reeds and has it down. Looks like shes gonna be my caller :chuckle:
