4K New Mexico BULLS | Dirk Durham | THEBUGLER

[@brandonvaughan1918]

That was well said at the end. Some people don't understand working for your food. Meaning working a full time job then working 16 hr shifts while out and about in the woods trying to find and harvest the elusive Wapiti. It's far from driving down to Safeway or Walmart buying a couple steaks in 20 minutes. I'm grateful for you and others on this platform that show to the best of the cameras ability what is actually endured. God bless!!!

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Thank you, I appreciate it

End speech was Epic! My 14 year old daughter and I experienced this on a drawn youth texas elk hunt. She was blessed with an 800 lb 5x5 bull 300+ yard shot. We look at her mount and its an incredible bond we all three have. Anyone that has never Elk hunted will never understand.

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Congrats to her! Thanks for watching :)

[@jeramiahmathis1845]

By far your best one yet, can tell in your voice, that's why we do it. Hats off sir! Smoked my bull this year with the maverick.

[@rogerramjet7567]

Way to grind it out!! So many people just don’t understand what it takes to hang with it and get it done!! Very good guys!! 👍👍😀

[@jackfowler1030]

Excellent hunt Dirk , the shot was a little high put money when you are able to hit both lungs. Good shot ! I hope to put the calls I purchased from you at the Portland Sportsman show this year on my solo special tag I drew in Wa. Hope to chat with you again at the next Show and tell you my story. Good luck to you this year !!

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Thank you! Good luck🙌🏼

[@SandoAdventures]

Last summer I had a conversation with Brian Call about how it’s crazy that we go to such extremes to be successful. It’s definitely hard on our bodies mentally and physically. Pack outs can be brutal but when it’s all said and done it’s so rewarding and not long after we look forward to doing it again. Brian’s response to that was, “it’s in our DNA.”

[@ultimatepursuit7165]

Killer video guys!!

[@edbranson4175]

Way to go men. Great bull. I miss these videos, hopefully there are more coming. The key to this hunt was definitely switching to the camo pants.

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Hahaha

[@pikdiesel]

Great hunt... Thanks for taking us along with you 🤘🏻

[@kylemccracken4724]

Always a pleasure to watch u keep up the hard work it pays off GREAT JOB THANKS DUSTY

[@camillethetacoturd7210]

You last words were beautiful Bugler. We would be blessed to live a life as simple, beautiful as the Elk you harvested and a death so peaceful in gods country.

[@JedlyMT]

Nice hunt! You're awesome Dirk! And that 4k is so good! 31 days till season opener!

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Thank you! Without Dusty running the camera, I'd have nothing to show :)

[@jeffbynum2902]

Busting out the pedo calf calling technique! 😂 Good work man, that was fun to watch.

[@realrussclarke]

Congrats Dirk great video thanks for sharing and keeping my dream alive.

[@jackmoyer2174]

I’ve missed the Dirk and Dusty show! Awesome bull!

[@carygentry6702]

That would have been a tough haul out with the team of friends to help out. Nice bull!

[@07kdjohnson1]

Great work Dirk! One of my favorite elk videos this year. Now back to practicing my calf calls!

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Thank you!

[@kencameron-j7g]

who ever you hunt with they are such very awesoment huts, thank you for sharing them

[@billadams3514]

Another great video Dirk and the comments at the end. Keep them coming.

[@killahboutdooradventures]

Awesome hunt! Dusty sure has turned into a good team mate!

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

He's the best ever!

[@Алекс-л2к7с]

Какая тяжелая и трудная охота. Мне 62 года, а не могу бросить охоту.

[@joshuamorrison4832]

Just here for the Taylor Swift Playlist!😂

[@jasondlion]

Those dam 7 points, Dirk! 😂 why are they your mythical unicorn? One day I promise you, my friend! Beautiful film can't wait to see more! I think randy macho man savage and hulk hogan need to come out again! Best of luck this year!

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Haha thank you! One day I'll get one, when the time is right I guess...... Lol

[@ld19811977]

How's that big city living? Had to laugh come to find out the family and i relocated about 5 miles down the road from where you moved from. Hoping the elk are not far. Many times there was droppings in the yard during the inspection/purchase process.

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Man I miss that place a lot. I miss all the trees and quiet nights. You should have lots of elk to chase around there. Just gotta out maneuver the other hunters is all......

[@nickvan49]

I know it is a rare situation, but what would you recommend doing if cows come in before the bull in the future? I've had a similar situation happen and I pretty much stood still and shut up. Is it better to take this approach or give them a couple soft cow calls and convince the bull to keep moving in? Thanks, great hunt!

[@PhelpsGameCalls]

Typically I’d stay quiet abd motionless and let the cows pass by, and then draw carefully as not to get detected by the bull when the he approaches.

[@richardlawrence9645]

My favorite elk Hunter to watch!

[@chrislucero2826]

That bench to sit on was from the good Lord !

[@BGCWBY]

With all the moisture we had here in NM it was an awesome hunt last year! I was lucky enough to draw unit 17, 1st hunt this year. It's a lot dryer this year, but rains are starting to roll in. It's my first year using my Phelps tube. Wish me luck!

[@BGCWBY]

PS....the cattle trying to help you with your hunt was awesome 🤣😂

[@PhelpsGameCalls]

Good luck!

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

@@BGCWBY haha stupid cows everywhere 😂😂😂

[@ehhh11]

Nothing compares to the Red Maverick. Pink is far from equivalent.

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

I'd agree with that! 😂 Thanks for watching!

[@scottburgess696]

Cool video my friend!! How the hell am I going to sleep now, crap, I'm all fired up🤣🤣

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Haha thanks amigo! Hope you get after them this fall!

[@jnm_hunts]

That's how you promote a call company. One of the best sounding in the field. Need to get my hands on some

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Thank you!

[@TradTech]

Great job Dirk! Phelps is producing some great content. Congratulations!!!!

[@johnwaynerealtor]

Dirk, you’re calling is what got me into elk hunting about 10 years ago. I guide now just to spend as much time hunting as I can. Thank you!

[@williamweiss6128]

I understand in the old days it may have been for fun, not so much business, but, I miss the old days with the collaborations, too funny. All are business now it seems. I can go back and watch those old episodes, I guess.

[@windsockpics]

This will be my first ever hunt and I chose for it to be Archery as well. I draw a tag for either sex public in a similar area to you in this video. It’s been a great learning experience and opportunity I hope I can feed my family with this bounty

[@calemcewan534]

I could really use a tree saddle system for the area in Colorado I'm hunting this year. It's going to be hot and hunting over water will be key. Great video!

[@kevinglanzer9388]

keep hunting bro

[@billcurry7947]

It never get old watching you call in and kill elk congratulations on another nice bull

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Thank you!

[@jero1918]

You da man Dirk!

[@cynthiaaden3270]

Nice job boys

[@ScottJanssen-u4x]

Great hunt video! What is the song that starts on or around 40:03? TYIA

[@PhelpsGameCalls]

[@stevenwisz8505]

Excellent....

[@adambernard1672]

Cool as the other side of the pillow - 🤜🏻 congrats thanks for sharing

[@charlienewberry5956]

Good stuff

[@eaglecapoutdoors]

Enjoyed this vid sir! Congrats!!! So, true. Natural meat and a blessing to have the freedom to hunt! Thank you for sharing the hunt.

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Thank you!

[@southernhood5145]

listening to your podcast 😂, you got the chiggers or red bugs, they are the worst down in south Mississippi. I didn't know they were in NM takes forever to stop itching.

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

They were TERRIBLE!!!! I literally itched for 2 months Hahaha

[@jeffjohnson3302]

Great bull Dirk! Congratulations! You never disappoint!

[@richardkrause2356]

love it

[@brianfocht6165]

Great video guys! Thanks for sharing

[@DanielGuillette]

Thanks for taking us along on a great hunt.

[@kodiakfisher]

That was the absolute very best post shot elk calling I have ever heard. Usually post shot shot elk calling is the very worst. Congratulations!! Noticed you switched from screaming and being the baddest bulll on the mountain like Oregon Coastal calling. Bingo!!! Well done!!!

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Thank you! Had to pullout all the tricks for this hunt for sure :)

[@addicted-to-bass74]

Heck of an elk Dirk! Congratulations! "Monster are Coming"

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Thank you!

[@addicted-to-bass74]

@THEBUGLERBRAND You're welcome

[@tigea9078]

You got shooters, then you got hunters. Waterfowlers and elk hunters are a different breed. Then yall put the icing on the cake and video it all. Thanks for bringing us along. The hunt is the easy part. Editing this stuff would drain me.

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

🙌🏼

[@huntmulies39]

Nice hunt. What was the date you shot that bull

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Thanks! 9/17 👍🏻

[@juliojimenez-juanz6751]

Awesome hunt guys! great bull 😁

[@davidketchell5900]

Too bad you didn't have a "cow" tag.

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Haha no kidding! Pesky things 😂😂😂😂😂

[@rodneyrote6261]

Hey dirk gonna hunt with the bro crew this year

[@aleksandarvasic4885]

Vise words big man, I tried to explain that to my family. I always try to learn something, any video I watch there is new situations and different things to pick from. Since I started elk hunting in 2016 never missed any year and hopefully that will continue for long time.

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Thank you!

[@mattbuck7061]

Grear video! Looked like a great time and good old bull.

[@shawncaudell7864]

Great hunt Dirk Thx for sharing

[@joshchestnut523]

Way to go Dirk. Great film as always. Shows how hard you have to work to put food on the table. Thanks for all you do and I can't wait to get my first chance hunting elk in New Mexico in October!

[@THEBUGLERBRAND]

Good Luck!

[@jeffmorris8768]

Music was disgusting'

[@PhelpsGameCalls]

Great comment, but not helpful. What was wrong with it? Genre, volume, frequency, or you just hate music in KZbin videos. Help us understand you’re preferences.

[@getyourmeatllc5677]

Always fun to watch your videos
