It\'s been a while since I posted.....hitting the elk hunting hard. :D

Mid September and it\'s a 1/2 before light. You are standing on top of a ridge overlooking a big timbered bowl. You pull out your Brand X bugle and give a nice long Contact Bugle in which you then get a response. Let\'s say that you know the direction the reply came from but your unable to...
