Pinwheel5 Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 Wednesday myself and three of my friends went to a WMA here in Eastern Kentucky to listen to the elk bugle. Man, what an experience. As soon as we stepped out of the truck we heard some bugling about a quarter of a mile off. We decided to try to stalk and we made it inside of 125 yards of a very big 6x6. I got him bugling on video several times, veery cool. After that one of my friends and I decided to try some more that were already in the timber. We called in a massive bull to about 75 yards and although I did not get to count the points he was much bigger than the 6x6 we seen earlier. He finally caught our scent and took off but not before we both had a shot or two had we been hunting with guns. Other than my first turkey or best buck kills this is the best outdoor experience I have ever had. Having a 700 lb. horny elk that is mistaking you for a hot cow in thick brush will get your blood pumping like no turkey ever could. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
