Thank you for being respectful and not talking about where you are hunting. I wish more people had that level of respect for the locals and other hunters. Great entertainment.
The all to familiar ghost bulls of the northern jungles. Where spot & stalk hippies of the south get humbled. Run & gun is the game of choice and the best show around. That was one heckuva bull for the country. Enjoyed the hunt, mad respect for the the way the game was played!
The violin music when you were sad was pure genius my friend! I would have to say that bull was kinfolk to the"Growler" ! It's horrible to see that country so overgrown from lack of elk traveling through it.
Haha had me a little pity party. 😂 Yeah he looked like Growler’s long lost cousin. Not the same country but who knows? The RIDGERUNNER made those mountains look small and he was just a man…. 🙌🏼
Man I always love your videos. I live to chase the Bugles of fall, the Ghosts of the Northern woods. That was a tougher season than most. I’ve been there….. so many times. Can’t wait for next year, I actually got a great Idaho Archery tag for 24, so I’m stoked. I know you’re looking ahead with anticipation as well, it’s who we are. Not everyone understands that. Thanks for the great video Dirk, I love them almost as much as the nasty, steep, thick, wet, miserable north woods. God bless!
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed your video. What an awesome display of calling. I've learned so much from you over the last 5 years. Thank you for sharing your experience!
I’m glad to see I’m not alone this year. Your season looked allot like my season. Allot of action but just couldn’t get it done. It truly was a cursed year for me. Truck broke down drop away broke missed bull plus many other punches to the gut. But something tells me I’ll be back next year. Great video.
I grew up hunting just over the border in the same thick, steep, nasty country. It holds a special place in my heart, though it does sadden me to know what it was like before the wolves. There is still some giants roaming that country although they are few and far between. Great video, thanks for sharing
Thank you for showing reality! Enjoyed the heck out of the film. Enjoy watching unsuccessful hunts, especially from world class hunters. One thing they all have in common is the drive and the passion that brings them back and the success is that much sweeter! 👊
One of the Best Ever. Not to take away from your other solo hunts but THAT WAS FRIGIN AWESOME!. You kicked some ass regardless of the outcome today. Thank you for the entertainment!
I am so fired up right now, damn dude!!! That was a great bull, a great hunt and a great day to be in the elk woods, can't win them all. Experiences like that keep you hungry for the next hunt, super video and thx for the bugling lesson🤣👍
Dirk. I only use 10 ply tires on my truck. If you don't have a tough tire with a thick sidewall those sharp mountain rocks can flatten even a newer tire that has week sidewalls or tread.
Yeah buddy! It’s my own fault. Bought those stupid Goodyears on Facebook market place- almost new, 10ply. Good highway tires, but junk on mountain roads. I knew better…. BFG’s kicked butt though 💪🏼
Good stuff guys, love watching your videos and seeing/ listening to you interact with the bulls. PS to all the tire companies please sponsor THEBUGLER for some tires you won’t regret it 😊
Hey, great job, oh by the way I talked w/ dad today he said that he liked the show... but that Mr. Doug Flutty himself would have just called the ghost right to the truck. Then Dusty would have filmed everything from inside the truck! Thanks again... dug flutty Jr the third.
Awesome video Dirk n Dusty loved the sad music editing 😂 but made us feel your pain with ya. Successful hunt just not so much on the harvest but that what keep us going 👍
That was good. Very good! It’s not about the kill, it’s about the pursuit! Dirk obviously has the Passion! I pity the bulls the next time Dirk purses the Ghost of the forest!
@@THEBUGLERBRAND awesome I can't wait. I'm about to order the "Red" call soon. Man you can lay into that thing and it sounds awesome. I had a good bull lose his mind in OR and I thought we were going to kill him but the wind burped and we lost him. But man my knees were knocking.
awesome video dirk - reminds me of my old stomping grounds around the coastal pacific northwest (even though i know its not). every year i usually find myself wondering how i got down into this nasty hole but then somehow dream of going back year after year
I really hate it when you find smart elk lol! That bull was a dandy, maybe 350 bull man. We had the same thing happen to us this year with a shot and arrow deflection. I hope you turn him back up this year for some redemption. P.S. Love the intro and credits Morgan Freeman lol
Thanks! Unfortunately that hat is one that we made a couple years ago and has been discontinued…… We have others available not not that one anymore. Sorry 🥹
BFG All-terrains or FALKEN At3Ws and you wont have that flat problem. Those are the only tires I trust all year long and on any road Ive ever found in 40+ years hunting the PNW.
Big fan of BFG AT’s too. That Chevy has had 2 sets of them. Good tires. I bought those POS Goodyears on Facebook marketplace to get those black wheels. Should have known better to run em in the mountains 😂
Dang Dirk, now I don’t feel so bad. This video feels like my entire season last year. I had a bull at 10 yds and was drawn on him for two minutes, had to let down, then the wind shifted. I’m probably hunting in some of your old stomping grounds in far north Idaho
I have a question about Phelps elk mouth calls. I’ve been using the white amp “the most” because of the volume and big sound. What’s the difference between the maverick, phelps signature and the white amp. I’ve switched to phelps from Rocky Mountain calls because I feel like the sound is better and I get a louder clearer sound and more responses from elk. I wanted to try the thickest loudest latex call they make. All my calls are trash after abusing them in 2023 and need to buy new ones to practice before 2024. Thanks
I’d recommend picking up a “signature 3pk”. It has the Pink Phelps signature, Maverick, and Purple Smith sig. The purple is the thickest latex we have…… The pink is thinner than the white or Maverick. The Maverick has the sweet spot of latex in my opinion. Thick durable latex, stretched tight, and the green latex is more nimble than black IMO. If you like a heavy articulate call, Maverick can’t be beat. The purple takes a pounding and sounds great for hard callers. Makes great mature cow calls and giant bugles. The pink is thinner latex and doesn’t take as much air to make it go. Great cow call and bugles.
Agreed! Trappers are helping keep the numbers from growing right now and putting a dent in the population. Hopefully that continues. That place was really something at one time
I have several times had bulls bark then grunt after, typically when they get frustrated because you just wont show yourself, this is their response, as they want you to show yourself, if you don't answer quick like you did they will just leave, same thing when they growl at you....and has always been with the biggest smartest ones.... I think less is more in bugling big bulls, he believed you then ....don't know if you intentionally did it or it happened because of the excitement, but you shortened your bugle, before the grunt considerably toward the end and it was so much more realistic to what I typically see and hear ....tough luck on hitting a limb, so many things that can go wrong....but, this is what we live for, if it was easy anyone could do it....great hunt....
Doug Fluty could have sealed the deal!!!!With the sex appeal!!! Im starting to think hes a myth and a wanna be legend. Doug would have made "the ghost" the guest of honor at the dining table. Its aewsome to watch ya. Thanks for bringing us along. You keep it real and thats what i like.
It looks like you're hunting in my neck of the woods. My 20 year old son has always complained about the brush and the terrain, but I always tell him that learning to hunt here will make everywhere else seem like hunting in the park.
Get rid of the Duratracs and change to Cooper Rugged Treks. Made in the USA and punch Duratracs in face. It isnt even close. Wet and snow traction from the new cooper is so much better.
Awesome hunting Dirk! If u guys do a sequal to this please dont title it "Redemption" that title is used wayy too much in the hunting content world lol
Good content Dirk , hope to see you again at the Portland Sportsman show. I'm in the market for a new hunting stabilizer . Which one are you using and the length ?
Unfortunately I’ll be in SLC at the hunt expo that week. Jason and crew are holding down the fort in Portland. I shot the 12” Conquest Smack Down on that bow. My aluminum riser bows I shoot the 10” Smack Down
Jason i read something online the other day saying you sold phelps game calls to steve rinella/ meateater. Is that true? I know you had partnered up with them but i thought that was all.
BF Goodrich All Terrain tires DO NOT WORK with 3/4 Ton on larger trucks! For 1/2 tons and Jeeps, they are great! If a heavy truck is what you want to drive,get some Toyo's or Nitto's, their casings are built to handle heavy trucks.
I’ve ran Toyo M/T’s, Nitto M/T’s, BFG AT KO2’s, and BFG MT KM3’s on this truck and had ZERO problems with any of them. None have lasted beyond 30k miles, with the exception of the KM3’s which are still running and is TBD on how long they last. The POS Goodyears were some I got of of FB Marketplace mounted on wheels. I wanted the wheels and thought the GY should be fine on the Idaho backroads to run out, but boy was I wrong. They are junk! The others worked just fine everywhere I’ve hunted elk (which is several states and rough road conditions).
Hey dirk, I think Jason should lay you off every year for the month of September so you can do the bugler videos and free lance , of course collect unemployment ,,lol ,, I miss the videos !
I have hunted elk over 50yrs and taken some nice bulls..you can be greatest butler in the world but having a camera guy and always talking will cut your odds in half..there can be lot of eyes out there..hunting never used to be about how many likes your video got..
Great calling without knowing elk behavior, tactics that work, and gumption to go to places where elk live is worthless. Elk hunting to me isn’t about getting likes what so ever. I’ve hunted elk for 35 years and it’s been about the same thing- Taking home fresh elk meat to my family. Fooling a wild animal to come in close enough to fight. Spending time in beautiful places during the best month of the year. Connecting with my primal self and keeping my soul fed with adventure. Why do I video the hunt? To be able to share the incredible experience’s with friends, family, and you. To have the ability to watch the hunt over the years and relive those moments. If nobody watched these videos but me and I could afford to pay a camera man to film, I would still do it.
Thank you for being respectful and not talking about where you are hunting. I wish more people had that level of respect for the locals and other hunters. Great entertainment.
Hands down the best dude on a bugle tube. As amazing as you are and I believe you got em all beat…the closing of this video was friggin awesome!!!!!
The all to familiar ghost bulls of the northern jungles. Where spot & stalk hippies of the south get humbled. Run & gun is the game of choice and the best show around. That was one heckuva bull for the country. Enjoyed the hunt, mad respect for the the way the game was played!
Thanks brotha! Them jungle bulls are something else.
Hands down some of the best elk calling love it dude keep them coming
Thanks!
Unreal calling! That was a seminar you just put on, particularly with that last bull! 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!!!!
Great looking bull for sure. One that will haunt your dreams. Your videos are a delight to watch. Thanks for sharing Dirk.

Thanks brother! Appreciate the feedback 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Awesome calling and content Dirk and Dusty!! The Maverick is my go to call to bring the bulls in. You"ll get him next time!! 👍👍
Thank you! Couldn’t do it without my main man Dusty! He’s makes me look good 💅🏼
Glad you like the Maverick 🙌🏼
Your videos are just too good! We need more!
Thank you!

Haha thanks Scott! The bulls have to win a few I guess lol!
Welcome back to the big screen. Great video and story telling.
Thanks Ed 🤘🏼

Great video, even though it isn’t what it used to be still gotta love getting out there
Yep it’s still fun for sure. Never know what you might turn up out there
I don't know if I was blacklisted. Haven't been getting ur videos. For some time.
Thank god ur back.
No one does it like u.
Keep it up.
Huh that’s weird?! There’s a few here in the Phelps Channel to watch and more coming, probably later this summer
Great content and calling. Better luck with the following hunts Dirk. Mike

Haha Thanks!
Those barks you did in return were legit! What a stud bull in that nasty thick stuff!
Thanks!
Fantastic! Love it!
Thank you 🙌🏼
Outro was dope! Was not expecting that lol
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed I’d 🙌🏼
Nicely done bud! The beasts will pay next year.

Loved the commentary it was legendary

Wow great hunt guys . The end was epic 😮 huge mountain Bull
Thank you! I’ll get him someday
Well done Dirk & Team.. I have beef with the bulls of the deep north too ✊ thanks for putting this out my dude
Thanks Tim! Those things are frustrating for sure
So many fantastic one-liners I lost counting!!! Awesome Dirk!!!! 🤛🤛🤛😆😆😆🤛🤛🤛
Thanks brotha! 🤘🏼
You missed one edit of the state you were in. I won’t time stamp it, but thank you for your effort to keep this place a secret.
😎 good catch
Not sure I’ve ever seen you without a ball cap on Dirk. Great footage Dusty
😅
TOYO M55 for the roads here in the PNW- never gotten a flat on one.
Agreed! Those are fantastic tires 🙌🏼
I've had a few that I barked at too and confused them when they start barking like that I cow call a few times and have had some come in
You never disappoint. As others pointed out; what a great calling seminar for us. You are "The Bugler ". Long live the King🤙
🙌🏼 thanks brother!
Loooove the narration...didgeridoo was a very fine touch!!!!!
Thanks! 🤘🏼
That bugle made the hair on my neck stand up. Outstanding sir.
Love my Nitto Ridge Grapplers for tires!
Those are great!
Always good!
Thanks! 🙌🏼
All Elk all the time! Good to see this!
