Was over east yesterday and had about 120 head in a canyon bugling all morning. There was atleast 5 different bulls bugling in different locations in the canyon. Glassed 15 bulls including spikes and raghorns. Never really layed eyes on any bulls with size but since we will be hunting spikes and cows we were pretty happy with what we found.

Did a scouting trip with a buddy yesterday and saw about 50 head of elk that included 3 bulls hanging out together away from the cows. Things ought to be picking pretty soon. We were in SW WA.

The 12th is gonna be a good day. I got a friend down there with 120 acres and 3 herds of elk but odds are he won't let us hunt. Luckily there's plenty of other land around there full of rutting bulls  :chuckle:

I'm hunting SW too but it's been a few weeks since my last trip out to check cams. They weren't talking then and only have gotten cows in the cam pics. I'm heading out Wednesday evening to spend a few days locating and checking pics and hope they're talkin.

Listening to them sing as we speak!!!! 
I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

It doesn't matter what you think...

Had a bull sounding off Saturday afternoon in Randle. Cows were talking quite a bit also.

This morning at 8am a bull was going nuts across the pasture.  I didn't see him and if I wasn't leaving to haul hay I would have messed with him a bit.  Maybe tonight or tomorrow morning.  My daughter needs some more calling time.

I was out this morning checking my cams, I have elk on two out of three cams. Two legal Bulls. I decided to cow call at my third cam and instantly the timber cam alive with chatter. I cow called for half an hour and had the heard bull going nuts. Pretty neat. I had my neighbor which is his first year elk hunting at ahhwwww with the situation. I kept my cool and acted like this is normal  :chuckle:
