elk rut
hey boys, the elk talk all year round. just a matter of if anyone is around to hear them. they are going thru their staging and displaying right now, learning who is who in their given area. come the rut all the bulls will know each others bugles.
secondly the frost or colder weather does not determine the rut. it is the cows estrus cycle that determines when the rut will take place. the change in the weather seems to throw the rut activity into high gear< to the point that us hunters notice anyways.
anyways my prediction is the same as every year, sept 15. they can be called as early as aug 25 if you use the right technique, just gets easier the closer to the middle of sept. anyways take care, rob.
