Turkey season tends to help with that problem, but it'll get bad in another month or so.

Jake,
October.....heck, Im acting like a tweeker going through withdrawls waiting for September and my LE Elk hunt to come. My wife is getting sick of me talking about it 24/7. She gets even more annoyed when I bust out my bugle and cow calls so I can get some practice. Im worried that things will only get worse the closer September comes and after a few scouting trips!! Once I start seeing some of those potential trophies, i'll be going crazy like a rabid dog!!!
SCREW SUMMER!! HURRY UP FALL!!!
TUFF

Tuffbucker,
hear ya, I practice watching elk hunting on tv.
but only when sues not around, come the end of summer i'll be carring my calls with me.
you really get heads cranking around when you let out a bull scream in the maul parking lot or pumping gas,
looks like i'll be there in oct. first rifle season.
drats, a month later than last years muzzy season.
get the shakes just thinking about it.
wish i could find the time to run out during the summer.
let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

Tuff,
I'm with you. I try to call year round,and my wife makes fun of me. I'll be just doing the next best thing and that is watching Elk hunting videos and Scouting.
What LE hunt did you draw? I drew my Wasatch LE archery elk.
I'm in to flyfishing like no tomorrow also, so that seemes to help a little.

If the withdrawals reeeeaaaalllly get to you, put your favorite hunting video in and then lay on the floor at the far end of your living room and put the scope on the critters on tv. that seems to help me.

It is only a wait till September for me! but yeh I'm all wired up already wondering if I'm going to 'bottom out' on the rest of this years draw applications or what! Atleast I'm getting some good hiking in and trying to find some wolves up in Snowbasin area as the snow melts off and more ground opens up for my wolf search. Come on September!!

Growler,
I drew the LE Central Mts. Manti hunt. Any weapon. I got lucky and drew with only 2 bonus points, so needless to say Im excited!

I'm envious of you Tuff, I wish it was September for me, but thats what I get for not trying to draw out, my problem is if I did draw out I would be the only one going as no one else in my family enters, but I'm working on changing that, but I'm getting to where I don't care, I'll just go by myself if thats what it takes to get me a monster bull, as for taking care of my addiction I've been coyote hunting but thats just cutting it anymore, so last week I went and bought the Utah Raging Bulls(I think thats what its called) but that just made me start tweekin worse than I already was, my wife thinks I'm Handicap bugling and cow calling at the bulls on the T.V. the funny thing is sometimes when I bugle I can here this guy down the street bugle back, it's funny but sad at how much more ancy I get when it happens, it makes me feal like a Virgen on prom night.

LOL...I never really thought about other guys doing it too. I got a new bugle in Feb. and use it all the time. In the house, front yard, gas station, driving down the street. It really is funny to see peoples reactions.
Tuff....I guess I'm a weird-o too. Well my wife thinks so anyway.
Jake....at least you got someone bugling back, I'm still waiting.

It's real hard to practice a bugle in an apartment. The people up stairs can romp in the bed all night above my room mooning and groaning like I can't hear them, but I can't let off a bugle without someone flippen' out! I have the withdrawl real bad, because now I have no backyard to shoot my bow in. It really sucks! I have been shed hutning and scouting for some fun. Just hope I draw my area 19 Wyoming (right out my backdoor) so I can put my scouting to good use.

You know that your really fanitic whey you name you're son after your arrows (Easton), He's only 3 almost 4 now and he's even addicted. It's really cute when I come home from work and there are cartoons, bob the builder shows, or whar ever else there is that he could be watching, but instead he glued to the tv watching Elk hunting videos, (it gets me all tingly inside, just to think that he already addicted and that I'm going to have an obsessed nut as a son to go with when he comes of age). When he was 2 his favorite toy was one of my old grunt tubes and hell he can bugle better that half the morons out there in the hills that think they know how to call.

Yea I've got it bad too. My wife leaves early for work every morning so it is my job to get the kids up and off to school. I turn on an elk video every morning while I'm getting ready for work. I keep catching my self sitting on the bed watching the videos and end up late for work. I have been trying to occupy myself with golf but it dosn't seem to work.
My 6 year old is a great caller also.
My wife thinks I am nuts because I watch videos over and over looking for little tidbits of information about elk behavior. Every camping trip is realy a scouting trip. I'm even taking my boy scout troop up to the Unitas so I can scout out a new area.
Good luck to all of you on feeding your additions.
