#269 - ELK HUNTING STRATEGY - Changing Our CALLING SETUPS!

Zach and Ben discuss some the things that they have learned over the years in regards to calling elk. When they first started elk hunting they only had one strategy, get a response and try to call bulls in with bugles. Over the last several seasons their strategies have changed and they call differently or don't call at all, depending on the situation. They also talk about hunting steep terrain, backpack hunting vs base camp hunting, and stalking elk. TOPICS INCLUDE: -matching the mood of the herd -midday calling setups vs. first light and last light setups -when to call aggressive and when to slow play the situation   NEW THP VIDEO PODCAST CHANNEL! - https://www.youtube.com/@thehuntingpublicpodcast/videos DAKOTA LITHIUM - https://bit.ly/3LVsZ6B THP MERCH:  https://bit.ly/30ZC1rm - Get 10% off THP Merch w/Code ZACH GoWild - Save 10% on orders w/code THP - https://bit.ly/3i4c15r OPTICS - 10% off Vortex Optics w/code THP10 - https://bit.ly/3AOdKDQ TURKEY CALLS - Get 10% off Woodhaven Calls w/coupon code - THP2022 - http://bit.ly/2IagiSe MAPPING - Get 20% Off OnX Hunt!
