Jackson Hole Bull From Six Yards

Chip September 24, 2008 Elk

This report came in from Bill “Bearpaw / Bathgate” Groom of Minnesota:  while booking a snowmobile trip at Togwotee Lodge in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, he asked about elk activity.  The guy on the other end of the phone told him the story of this bull he had arrowed just a few days earlier.

After a couple bugles, it came to within six yards before he let the arrow fly!  And while packing up to leave, an even larger bull came strolling up the hill towards them.  Apparently they had finished gutting and the hunter’s buddy, who had been learning to call, was messing about with the bugle and here it came……

    Why can’t that ever happen to me? I mean, I mess around with calls all the time and never get anything to respond!
