Dirk Durham grew up chasing bugling bulls just minutes from his home in north-central Idaho. These opportunities taught him many hard-earned lessons. These lessons have been invaluable to him as an elk hunter, and have also proved beneficial at the RMEF World Elk Calling Championships where Dirk has been awarded several 1st place and top 5 finishes. The elk woods are still close to his home, and even closer to his heart, and he lives for calling bulls in the backcountry each elk season.
