    Archery Elk Encounters

    # 1, Yes draw back sooner when possible, # 2 do not be concerned about an elk seeing you if you haven't drawn yet. They will not spook like a Whitetail if you do not move! Elk do not recognize the human figure on its own. Stay still & patient & they will calm down. Don't make time a factor...

    Just In Time For Elk Season! Elk Story!

    We are still 150-175 yards under this group so are able to speak softly with a plan, wind is still coming towards us, we are on a north face so the sun hasn't peaked over quite yet. -- The plan is to have my son go to my left aprox 35 yards, if the bull bugles back aggressively I'm going to...

    Just In Time For Elk Season! Elk Story!

    He's sorta shaking his head in disgust! I'm like Uh Oh, I know that look; it's generally not good! He says on the last bit of calling when the bull committed & ran down to his shooting lane he was getting ready to stop the bull with a nervous grunt as he cleared the last bit of brush but instead...

    Just In Time For Elk Season! Elk Story!

    8- 10 minutes have passed since I started working this bull! I continued to rake & thrash around along with foot stomping & mid volume excited mews. This enticed him to bugle with more intensity, I could tell he was now on his feet & advanced 30-40 yards; no doubt he's looking down the mountain...

    Just In Time For Elk Season! Elk Story!

    If you elk hunt long enough sooner or later you'll come across that "Wow, Did That Just Happen Moment" -- Well it must have been our turn this year! (My Son & I) This encounter was one that was flat crazy, I still have a hard time believing how it turned out; it could easily have gone south &...

    Early season elk patterns?

    To be honest, this time of year has very little to do with food source! This isn't hunting Whitetails! The only time food source comes into play is well after the Rut & bulls that survive are replenishing their ravaged bodies! This time of year & on into Sept. is all about the cows &...

    Calling Elk?

    nontyp, thank you! The Playbook is not part of the ElkNut Mobile App, there is info from the Book that overlaps in the App for sure but the App has a bit of everything. Obviously much can be learned from both. The Slow Play Sequence is reserved for the App at this time, it is not in any other...

    Elk packouts

    Farthest elk was in the 6-7 mile range, 4 of us & no packs to speak of, it was freaking brutal, of course this one was many moons ago! Generally speaking we pack elk out in the 1-2 mile gps range. Most packouts are aprox 4-5 hours one way, it's brutal country! At 64 I'm not sure how much...

    Calling Elk?

    Thank you for the comments guys! I appreciate it very much! Hank, you bet sir, Cows do Bugle, the question is why? I've shared info about this for 25 years. It's in the PlayBook & can be heard on the ElkNut Mobile App, it's discussed thoroughly why & how we can use this as an effective tool...

    Diaphragm elk call and heat

    Absolutely! Your calls are most likely shot, the latex can fatigue during those hot temps, it doesn't take much! If guys chew or drink lots of soda that too can shorten latex life, those things are acidic. Once the latex fatigues they are history, there's no bringing them back to original...
