Title: Elk calling/hunting strategy App
Post by: AKBowman on April 06, 2012, 09:56:32 AM: This is awesome!!

I've found this a really great tool for sharpening my skills in the off season. Real life calling and strategies for hundreds of different scenarios.

And for $5 (the price of a sandwich, or a magazine, or just over a gallon of diesel), it is not something to get too worked up over if it doesn't impress.

After buying it and playing around with it, if I had it to do over again, I would. It is actually a pretty well-built dichotomous key covering a wide variety of hunting scenarios, and Chris Roe knows what he is talking about when it comes to elk behavior and hunting/calling strategy.
