Phantom moose call
Posted by AkHunter45 on Oct 03 2005
OK, it looks like i am done moose hunting for this year so here's my report on how the call performed.  It has approximately 12 different sounds on it, bull battle, brush raking, social grunt, dominant grunt, young bull grunt, estrus cow, hyper estrus cow, angry cow (?), calf, unrinating in water, walking in water, moose mating. I tried all these sounds but that one's that worked best for me were the estrus cow combined with the young bull grunt and the occasional bull battle. I had several bulls come to those calls but we were unable to connect on them. One of the guys in our camp did take a 47" bull that I believe was coming to my calling but he managed to take him before he got to me, it was his first bull. Some of the calls did not sound to good to me, rather tinny and hollow sounding, so I would imagine that it didn't sound to good to the moose either. I tried putting duct tape on the speaker but that had no affect. Overall, i would give this call an 8 out of 10, only because of the tinny and hollow sound of some of the calls. If anyone would like any further info please feel free to shoot me an e-mail and we can discuss this some more. All in all, it was another great moose season in Alaska!!!
