Current Favorite Bugle Tube

[jgilber5]

Elkbros Soloist when I'm hunting alone. Flexible and sits with the opening backward, can call behind you with it on the shoulder strap. Love sitting on top of the nearest roll to the bull and sending stuff down and back. Pulls him right up close.

Is it worth bringing calls for 1st rifle Colorado?

Riven Cambium and never look back.

I like the Phelps Unleashed tube... not particular reason really but I have a couple and they are my goto's

Been using a Phelps tube since 2016 I think.

There was a Riven Cambium last year in camp that I got to play with. I was going to buy one for myself but it says "made in China" on the box. I didn't want to spend $329 for a tube from China. I decided to buy the Riven Eclipse carbon which is also made in China but priced at $119.

Also as an FYI Phelps Unleashed V2 is made in the USA except for the neoprene cover. All of his other tubes are made elsewhere.

ElkNut Chuckler was my favorite until a bear took it 2 years ago. I’ll be first in line if he makes them again.

Wiffle ball bat, about $3 at Walgreens several years ago.

I did it with a wiffleball bat”

Doubtful. @ElkNut1 is retired from elk hunting is my understanding.

I understood he wasn’t making tubes and selling products. Is he not hunting anymore?

I've got the phelps tube, I think it's called like unleashed v2? it seems to do the trick

How much are guys cutting off the wiffle bat and wrapping with what tape? Does it matter much?

I have a rocky mountain tube, sounds good but it's an older one and rough on the lips!

Nope, pretty sure he hung it up and sold the business. Kind of lost interest it seems, don’t think he hunted last year.

I lost my chuckler 9 years ago hanging in a tree where I killed my first bull. Would love to get another but…

Forever grateful to Paul, I had nobody to help me learn to elk hunt and he offered and spent a weekend with me talking and teaching me what I could absorb! No doubt it set me years ahead from day 1 and much of my success has come from that weekend he took out of his time. Great guy
