Just returned from weekend hunt here in Montana. Never heard a single bugle. Saw several mulies, a cow moose, a cow elk. Did manage to shoot 2 blue and one ruffed grouse. I'll have the wife cook up the grouse with peppers and squash from the garden and warsh it down with a bottle of Sierra-Nevada Pale Ale. Just wondering how other elk hunters fared this week end. I covered a ton of ground and saw little activity.
