A $330 wooden bugle tube?

[Elky Welky]

I just got the email with Corey's elk call recommendations, and saw an honorable mention for a wooden bugle tube made by Riven. I've always wondered about lopping the end off of an old trombone and trying to bugle with one of those, and I use a wooden cow call that gets great sound. So I'm not surprised to see these now hitting the market, but wow. Black walnut? That price? How heavy is this? Anyone have experience with one of these? Anyone make their own with a lathe?

I dropped a bugle tube somewhere in the woods that then burned in a forest fire the next year, so I'd be reluctant to spend that much on more future tinder.

It's made for the same guys that bought the Yeti pan.

I goggled that. $400 for a god damn skillet?!

I found mine in a campground when I was shooting my bow with my nephews.

Thing is there will be a lot of idiots buy the tube.

Wow Corey Jacobson. These guys would sell their soul for a dime. Sad to see.

Did you even read it? He's not selling it, says it's not for everyone based on the price, and he actually didn't even recommend it...

My friends and I often joke about ridiculous hunting gizmos, this is way up that list to me

Look good, feel good, feel good, hunt good. It’s 100% a necessity to kill a hammer bull that you can make a cool name for to get views. I’m all in on it.

I'd cut the ends off a whiffle bat before I'd spend $330 on a wooden bugle tube!

Gizmo chaser

If you get in a bugle off that gets really tight and aggressive, I’m taking a Louisville slugger bugle tube and cleaning chit up. My pappy always said “Don’t take a vacuum hose to a bat fight”

Does it have an oscillator eccentric?

I bet there is a big overlap between the people who buy mtn ops and this thing.

I bet it does sound good.

Only one way to find out, by that sucker and let us know!

...like a Martin D-28 with new strings

Uuum, yeah that’s probably not happening. I’m no longer a core bow hunter. I used the boom stick anymore.

 

[Mallardsx2]

I know it’s overpriced but I bet it sounds awesome

Bro. If you don't run a marathon a day, neglect your family, drink protein powder, and post multiple times on social media daily about how little you care what people think of you, are you even an elk hunter, bro?
