  • In this episode, MeatEater's Janis Putelis is joined by Jason Phelps, owner and operator of ‪@PhelpsGameCalls‬, for a September elk hunt on a friend's ranch in southeast Colorado. It might be a surprise to some that MeatEater's longtime producer and resident elk guide has never killed a bull with his bow, but after years handling clients and cameras, it's finally Jani's turn to cut his tag.
    You may have noticed Jason and Jani blowing on a new Phelps bugle tube in this episode, check out this link for more info on the new Met-Al Bugle Tube. bit.ly/3uHetEc

    Hey Janis, I don't know if you will read this, but my first archery bull elk (on my first archery bull hunt) is in my profile picture, and it came 6 weeks after I got the Elk Nut app. Nobody, not even Mr. Phelps, has the elk language down like Paul Medel, the ElkNut. No offense to Jason, he has his own style and kills some bulls. But if you want to call in 90 plus % of the bulls you see or hear, get the app. It is that good. And Paul hunts heavily pressured OTC units in Idaho. Check out the podcasts that he was a guest on. You won't regret the immense amount of knowledge that you will gain. Good luck this year. Great video by the way.

    • @nburlingame
      @nburlingame Před 3 lety

      @@latorgator23 there is a lot to learn, but study it everyday. I have a 40 minute commute to work, and I listen to my Bible in the morning and Elk nut podcasts in the evening. He uses stories and sometimes gives some helpful tidbits that are not on the app. It's also more entertaining:-) I also started using Phelps gray amp last year and it is really easy to use. The most important takeaways I can tell you, is to use a proper setup so the elk cannot see you until they are in shooting range. Obviously this works best in timbered country. Once you understand what they are saying, you will know how to respond. The nervous grunt is the best sound you can use to stop an elk in your shooting Lane, without spooking them. They will stop on a dime. I have yet to see a CZcams video where anyone uses a nervous going to stop an elk. I Did It For My Buddy last year on a five-point in about a 3-foot opening window. He nailed him. And then a tip that I think is in the app, but I picked up from a podcast is to give a nervous grunt followed by a harsh Roundup bugle right after you shoot when they are running away, which is kind of calling them out to step up and settle the dispute. It will get them to stop. I did it on my bull that I shot and he stopped at a hundred yards and laid down and died in about a half an hour. My buddies bull ran 50 yards, stopped and lay down and died in 2 minutes
