    What is the general message?

    My last post was about advanced elk calling tactics. BUT....I think the elk language is very simple. Advanced tactics does not mean the elk language is a complicated. So what do you the general message this bull is expressing? Dominance, announcement, challenging? <!-- m --><a...

    Advanced Elk Calling Tactics

    A buddy and I were just sitting around one day in the woods. The elk had been silent all morning so we were just shooting the breeze and talking about advanced calling idea\'s. We decided to get ~30 yards apart and start projecting a battle between bulls. Vicious warning bugles, lots of...

    Newbie - Last Year

    Last year was my first year elk hunting. :upthumb: I watched a bunch of elk hunting DVD\'s before I left and was very excited to try out my new brand X bugle because the hunters on those DVDs made it look really easy to call in bulls. On the first day of the hunt I bugled and got a bull to...

    No bugles....WTH!

    I have a spot in Oregon that contains really big toads. Some of the largest bulls I\'ve ever hunted have been in this area. It\'s extremely tough hunting and the elk are sparse. But we have several advantage points that allow us to bugle vast amounts of country. Even at the end of the...

    Requested - my definition of simple

    After explaining my simple bugling thoughts last night to another forum member, he requested I post them on the forum. For me it not about titles of the bugle, it\'s about definition of sounds, start to finish. Each can stand alone or be mixed to form simple expressions. Here\'s just a small...

    Lip Bawls

    Why do bulls give lip bawl bugles? I\'ve heard this by real bulls only a hand full of times. Does anyone know why they use it? This is probably the one bull sound I haven\'t developed an opinion on and have no clue what it means.

    Challenge Bugle - Help Me Understand

    I\'m not trying to be confrontational and I truly don\'t get why some call it that. I need help understanding. Rarely, but I have heard what others call a Challenge Bugle. The growls were very distinct and on the \'nasty\' end of the bugle spectrum. 1) When a bull gives just a growl, it\'s...

    Lead Cow(s) or Bull

    otcWill brought up a good point. Does the lead cow or bull control herd movement during the peak rut? We talk about bulls being lovers and not fighters thus taking their cows and leaving to avoid a conflict. So, is it possible that the cows have chosen their breeders and have no interest in...
