Elknut1 is right on the money! You have to understand what is happening, because elk have and use a language. Many guys in the woods don't grasp what that is and mess them selves up. Maybe I called to big, maybe that was a bark, maybe, well maybe is not helping them. Learn as much as you can! Do I still screw up, sure, but I know why. Just got a little too excited and stopped thinking for a second. But I would rather that, than to just blunder in. There are two elements in elk bugling, 1 the call, 2 your voice and you have to be able to use both to make it work. The tube doesn't make the call, you do. The tube enhances the call you make. You are getting sound out of a call already, that is good, now all you have to do is refine it. That is where a good video or CD comes in. Elknut1 will set you up, so not only will you hear the sounds, you will know what they mean and how and when to use them. Have fun!
