your right, when they are hot, just like a turkey all you have to do is Fart and they will come in.. When a bull is ready to play you dont even have to be that great of a caller to get one to come in.. Just keep farting!! :chuckle:

Post by: AKBowman on August 04, 2009, 12:42:31 PM: If that call works I think I may have a chance. I'm going to try to locate, sneak in close with low soft cow calls and then light em up with with a cow in estrus/bugle sequence.

Last year my partner kept stepping on this herd bulls bugle (bugling before the end of the bulls sequence) WOW! Did that piss him off. Came snorting/thrashing/pawing in to about 20 yards then sat in reprod with only his antlers showing. Then turned around and lef tthe same way he came in without ever giving us a good look at his vitals. Was pretty impressive though.
