Coming from a small town in Michigan the closest I came to hearing a bugling bull growing up was in Outdoor Life and Bowhunter Magazines.

It is awesome to think that we are about a month away from the start of the rut.  What a magical, unforgettable time of year it is!  I can distinctly remember the first time I called a bull in and shot him with my bow on that aspen choked hillside back in the early 90&#8242;s.  [...]]]></description>
