Huh, no noise with any meaning my fair weather friend. At least for a couple weeks, but I'm sure there are plenty of dudes out there educating them.

Educating them would be an Understatement!

went out scouting this last weekend. While driving there seen a guy walking along the highway decked out in camo with face paint and a neck load of calls and a bugle too. 
so sure there is talking but it isn't elk doing the talking...
Oh this is was in CO where no seasons are open yet on public land.

Way to early for elk to be making noise. But I did see a lot of bulls this weekend sparring and rubbing velvet off. Give it 3_4 weeks

Ive been hearing some noise on the manti unit in utah. Probably nothing of importance as elk are vocal year round. But I have witnessed some satelites put out some small bugles. Not just heard, literally watched them through my spotting scope.

I was on a hike a week ago and startled one on the side of the trail. She make a hell of a lot of noise when she crashed off but that's probably not the kind of noise you were talking about.
I've heard nothing but a couple mews all summer and I've been hiking in good elk country 4 days per week for the past 3 months. I'm out either early or late and I'll bet the elk are too. It's been damn hot!

I thought it was the middle of the rut with how many bugles I heard on the 16th of August. I backpacked back into the area on the 18th and heard a couple small bulls. Way off the road on the Manti unit.
Elk talk year round. Even bugles. Of course the rut increase this activity.
As far as the archers go, we have a season that begins really early and we have to use every and any tool at our disposal. But yes I certainly sympathize with the rifle hunters because the elk are "educated" by the archers. That shows in the 100% success rate on most limited entry early rifle hunts.
But to know and understand elk talk year round, you'd actually have to have "assassinated" some elk in your day....

That 110% Success Rate Must Hurt?

I was exploring/scouting in the Gila a couple years ago on @8-23. Stopped my truck to study a map . Heard bugling and thought for sure it was some Texan ( no offense) out being stupid with their calls. To my surprise after a brief hike ...6x6 with 20 cows doing his thing..every year is different. Had the second Gila hunt last year 9-11/18 and pretty quite but guys we ran into that had first hunt had a lot of noise . These guys are imo unpredictable in when they get motivated to be vocal. I get the real rut won't start till the last week of Sept but many years they are piping up way before that.

I saw a small 5X5 polishing his antlers yesterday ,and he replied to my cow/calf call with a couple short whistles, but no bugles' yet on the Wasatch. Do have a really nice bull spotted for my buddy with an any Bull tag. Have been within 100 yards of him 4 times in 6 days. Have watched him bed,polish,feed,fight trees.but not a peep out of him. He didn't even give a second glance at a heard of 5 cows and calves and a spike that fed through his area on last Thursday. Hope to show you all a pics of him with a tag on his antler soon. Your know if we connect with him by his long (18") 6th point on his right side...

Any time you have to follow up with (no offense).....
It's a pretty safe bet you just offended someone.

Well bob!
Laugh if you'd like!
Remember when the first FOX-PRO'S came out!
Good Bastards!
Until everybody's Buddies Buddy Bought 3 of them!
Probably been more Dogs Educated with Fox-Pro's than any other Calls combined!
I'll Stick with My Ancient Johnny Stewart Long Range Caller & Hand/Mouth Calls!
My Question is this:
Who Doesn't Own a bunch of Hoochie Damn Mama's?

Bess, Iv never owned a Hoochy, I use a Quaker boy old hen call, and cow/calf call through a small tube. hardly ever bugle.When they are rutting (after my stick flipper hunt) I locate by chuckeling with my voice.. works for me

Those basin skanky mammas can be fun though when desperate. But not bad for a sure thing

In Illinois it is against the law to carry or use a turkey call for the 2 weeks before the season begins. Sounds kind of stupid but I am in favor of it.
