Default Learning to call Elk?

Game Farm Elk like to stir things up early and are more vocal than their wild cousins...and are full calling now!!!

There are Elk farms everywhere...theres one just a couple miles from me...

Just go sit nearby, watch and listen...best tutoring going with elk calling!

I will suggest NOT to try call game farm elk...unless you talk to owner you may get more than you bargin for...

I have seen both Elk and moose jump a true 8ft fence...
Not to mention an Irate Rancher than just may put a jump to your butt with his size 12 boot./..lol

Could be considered harassment !!!

Elk stay in game farm fences cause they know they got in made on the inside...lol

I learnt some deadly calls that way...

Neil

LOL. AWESOME pic, Neil.

I guess I won't practice my bugles down at the local Elk ranch.

That bull leaned into the fence pretty good, VERY lucky there was nothing sharp on top of the fence...or he wouldn't be a bull anymore.

Thanks for the tip Neil, i pass an elk farm every day. Thought of it but assumed they wouldnt be very loud standing next to each other.
