Overview
Built for hunters who want to produce more forceful elk vocalizations, this intermediate call is aimed at creating dominant, mature-sounding notes in the field. Its thicker black latex is designed to handle more pressure than lighter latex, which can help when a louder, more aggressive presentation is needed. That makes it a practical choice for working big bulls or larger cow sounds during elk calling setups.
