Every high-pitched, hollow whistling sound you hear causes you to prick up your ears and crane your neck to pin point it's location.

You might be an elk hunting addict if you......visualize shot placement on every elk , elk photograph, elk painting or statue you come across. But I wouldn't know.

Every time you hear a bull elk bugle in a movie, and you know Bulls don't bugle at that time of year or that location there are no elk. :rolleyes:

Or

Your wife has a recurring dream that you are at the altar when her dad walks her down the isle. On the other isle is a giant bull. You have to choose between her and the bull. She wakes up before she knows which one you choose. Going to the grave with my answer.

Your wife's birthday is September 12th and all you needed to give to bring a tear to her eye was show up.

...... If that was followed by a slap because she saw the antlers in the back of the truck  :chuckle:

If your wife has threatened to divorce you 7200 times for practicing elk calls in the house and driving the dogs crazy.

Seriously though my wife is an angel.  Our wedding anniversary is September 8th, and she knows that I'm hunting in multiple states most of September and early October.  She refers to herself as a "hunting widow".  I hunt Oregon archery first half of September every year, and WA for muzzy elk every year.   She is still married to me after all these years. 

And her ringtone for me is an elk bugle.....there is no question in my household what my favorite animal to hunt is.....

If one of the reasons you married the person you did was...so she could call for you!  (She claims it's easier for a woman to call a bull in, because that's what women are born to do...)

You call in a mature bull then head back to camp because you don't want the hunt to end.

You might be an elk hunting addict if...

When your girlfriend mentions she's excited to try out her new diaphragm, you automatically think she's talking Primos.

And you're a little disappointed when you realize she isn't.

You might be an elk hunter  if your Calendars start and end in September and every other month after is just a countdown back to September 1. .

Rmef should sell calenders that go by hunting season.
