    What'd I do wrong? Bugle in the wrong situation?

    I'm definitely an impatient elk hunter, so telling me to charge in... or sneak.. to within 200yds is exactly what my ego needs to hear. lmao it was the 3rd week of sept. @cohunter14

    What'd I do wrong? Bugle in the wrong situation?

    Thanks, I'll look up Joel's stuff! When I cow called, I usually tried to mimic a lost calf call sequence. I heard so many chuckles with & without bugles last week that I was adding the chuckle after my own bugle atleast 50% of the time. But I don't believe that the pond Bull had chuckled...

    What'd I do wrong? Bugle in the wrong situation?

    Just got back from a Northern NM archery hunt and wanted to talk through some of the Elk encounters my brother & I had. I've hunted archery elk a couple years now, but this is the first time we had real action. We first found the elk up high around 10k+. Bulls were bugling in the middle of the...

    150gr Nosler Accubond LR in .270 on elk

    I shoot the .270 150g Winchester "Expedition Big Game Long Range" which uses the Accubond LR bullet. Originally bought it for the performance at long distance which on paper has been great for me, but in hunting scenarios it's only ever gotten use at shorter ranges. 3 yrs ago I killed an Elk...

    Leupold

    I just put a new VX-Freedom with the "Tri-MOA" reticle on my .270. When sighting it in, I had alot of issues getting the reticle to focus on a black&orange target. I tried adjusting the eyepiece, but it didn't do much good. I didn't have an issue with bright targets though. Anyone else have...

    Operation Condor

    I loved following along with this hunt! Congrats on the success! I just wish I had as much time as you do to spend in the great outdoors.

    Best weather app

    A lot of local stations will have their own version of the same weather app that I love. I think it's made by The Weather Company. I'm in Dallas, so my local app is called "Fox 4 DFW WAPP". I've been using it for 10 yrs now, & you can set it to any city in the US as far as i'm aware. It has...

    What's your non-popper dove recipe?

    If its just a few dove I'll just toss the breasts in steak seasoning & fry them on cast iron with a bit of oil. Takes less than minute on each side to get med rare. Also tastes better fresh, no freezing beforehand.

    Dove opener.

    Finally found a spot with big (30+) groups of dove flying south of Austin. Looking good for those hunters in South TX who opened up yesterday.

    eScouting on Facebook? It works

    Agreed. The Continental Divide Trail runs through some great public land. I've read some hiker journals on trailjournals.com to get insights into a new hunting unit.
