Default RE: Need Elk Calling Tips

You can bugle just fine on a Terminator with the blue reeds providedif you practice, practice, practice. To get a chuckle you will need to take the blue reed off and use a diaphram/mouth call. If you don't already have some I would recommend buying 3 or more and try and find one you can make work. The raspy ones ussually work better than the high pitched ones. If you know how to blow a duck call it is the same concept. You blow it from deep inside your gut. Try sayind the word "jut" or "gut". It is great that you are trying to do the right thing. So, so many people blow on a termanator or like call get a good bugle but know chuckle at the end. I would never go into the elk woods without a chuckle. I have had many bulls respond to my chuckle alone while other hunter complained "the elk aren't responding".NO, they just don't respond to hunters, but when you chuckle they KNOW it's another bull. Raking trees also does just as much. A bugle with a chuckle is a very powerful weapon. If you practice you should be able to make the bugle and the chuckles with the diaphams and your terminator. You can also make a good spike squeal by doing the same things exept not blowing into the tube, just with the diaphram alone.Best of luck.Keepworking, it will come if yourdetermined.
