double lunger14 Report post Posted September 3, 2013 Elk arnt going to be off the road this time of year. When I was in 27 two weeks ago I didn't see one off the road or hear a bugle off the road. I had to hike my butt off to hear/and see the elk. It makes sense with all The idiots up there already calling. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rookiearcher09 Report post Posted September 4, 2013 Guess it just depends on location right now. I was up in 21 over the weekend chasing some deer around and we had a good amount of bugling going on, glassed a few nice sized bulls across a creek and watched them bugle back and forth for over an hour. In 4b where i actually have a tag i havent heard a dang thing though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alpinebullwinkle Report post Posted September 4, 2013 Today was actually the first day for me this year to hear bulls bugle back and forth "aggressively". Still hopeful the rut will start on time again this year. Last year was the earliest in history as I recall. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
200"mulie Report post Posted September 5, 2013 was in unit 1 Sun - Wed Didn't do a lot of hiking, just a bit of fishing. heard bugles 45 mins before dark and couple mins before sunrise .... and nothing during day. Talked to some locals and said a lot of water and food on the mountains .. elk are spread out and not coming far down the mountains. And from what we observed ... the bigest heard we saw were 7 cows ... didn't see a bull but heard bugles right before dark. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZ RANGER Report post Posted September 6, 2013 I am in unit 1 right now. Bulls have been screaming all night and at first and last night. Have not heard much during the day though. There seems to be a lot more feed everywhere this year too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
