[QUOTE="dmj, post: 2587762, member: 73479"] I'm sure you will get answers from more qualified members than me. Back in the 80's seemed like you could call in bulls with fairly good success and didn't have to be an exceptional caller. Now days it's a lot more difficult, didn't say impossible. My feeling are that lots of people are out there calling and the elk are getting more educated. Plus some contend that the elk are learning that by being vocal they are advertising to the wolves where they are at. And that is probably a whole other can of worms. Any way we use the mouth reeds for both bugles and cow calls. We use them sparingly. As far as the kind, usually use the double reed ones. And it does seem to us like some brands do fit our mouths better than others. So unfortunately you will probably just have to experiment to find what you like, sometimes bending them slightly to fit the roof of your mouth helps. Good luck with your hunt and be safe. [/QUOTE]
