    Big Okanagan Elk

    My hunting buddy told me yesterday that a big 8X7 elk was shot very near Kelowna a few days ago. Apparently it's already at Harley White's...

    I heard that the fellow went near the bush, cow called with a hoochie mama, the bull came out of the bush and spotted the hunter, back in the bush it went. Fellow hoocjied it again, bull came out and got shot...

    Anyone else heard of this? I could not find anything on it on HBC so it might not be true.

    Interesting about the HM. I was told by some elk hunting buddies in the Koots that there the HM has almost become an elk deterrent due to the fact it consistently reproduces the same sound - unlike real elk and reed calls, and the elk get wise to it quickly.

    Anyone else heard this?

    Yes, Hoochies have been known to scare elk here! I use diaphrams because I can produce any sound that I like.

    Ran into Officer Sietz last week and he was investigating a young bull elk shot and left up there just outside the park. Haven't heard much about it since though.
