Good job.

Did you call him out yourself? If so, mouth diaphrams, factory bugle or cow call?

Nothing like a big bull elk coming right at you lookin' for a fight.

:shock: You just told a lot of people where to call on opening day next year. Instead of elk now expect people! :evil: It must be nice to get your first elk though.Do you think there is an unlimited supply?:???:

Hey the bull river area is awesome! I spent a summer camping and scouting up there. (Well teaching at the college in Cranbrook but every spare minute up the bull) Saw lots of game all summer but come hunting season... nada. It is a huge area and only people able and willing to get off the road and hike in and UP will have much luck!

Nice job!
