Thanks for the responses.

Elknut I am not a pro by any means and welcome the input. Excatly why I am trying to get my chuck better, been leary to throw it well cuz I think it sucks! I did some practicing in the past day and realized I wasn't really huffy the note almost popping it persay so i got a higher pitch with out the UH on the end...getting better.

I should have explained where and how I hunt, for the locator bugle. It is a large densh bushed valley that is surrounded by agriculture at the tops. The fields gets heavy hunting pressure, so instead of rat racing I get into the valley and try to intercept elk moving to the bottom for bed and water. If I don't hear them, I will throw out a locator bugle in hopes of trying to get myself in their path or general downward movements. Of course the area is over bugled by hunters on the tops so I generally stick to the cow calls. Exception is peak calling or when I think a bull is responding to me. I guess this is were I need some brush up in interpreting exactly what he is saying and then giving him something to coax him..like the chuck,etc. For the most part we run solo due to the large scale of the area we hunt.

Thanks again. Less than a month till hopefully I hear them elk talking
