So I hunt in the NE corner of Real County off of HWY 41...2 weeks ago while bow hunting I swore up and down that I heard Elk bugling all morning! Was this more likely Sika Deer that I was hearing, or maybe Elk in a high fence somewhere, or was it possible that it was actually free ranging Elk?

That’s the reason I’m asking in this thread, just wondering what the true chances are that I have a few around me?

Real good chance it was elk, they are in the area you described. Could be sika as well but they don’t usually hammer bugles the way elk will. If you aren’t sure what you’re hearing- Sika usually do 3 high pitch whistles in a row, maybe 2-3 seconds apart. If your close enough you can hear the guttural growl at the beginning and end. The elk I’ve heard sound like what you see on TV.

I sure hope it was! That would add a whole new element to my hunting! Really enjoyed your video above! Good luck at killing that big boy!! [emoji1377]

And it’s good to hear they’re hitting feeders. My good bucks and exotics were mia last trip.
