Little early yet for bugles. Try using estrus cow calls.

One big guy was bugling today while we were hiking but don't think any of us will get him. He was in Banff National Park up by the Cascade Ampitheatre, some Aussie hikers saw him, scared the bejesus out of them they said when he came thundering threw the bush at them full steam after letting a big bugle out!!

If the cows are there, the bulls will be too. Be patient, but don't get them call shy.
