Paul Medel
The ElkNut has dedicated the last 30 plus years to a specialized subject – understanding elk vocalization. For the last 26 years he and his son, Paul Jr., (owners of ElkNut Outdoor Productions) have made it their mission to share what they’ve learned through instructional DVDs, CDs and ElkNut’s PlayBook. The ElkNut app combines the best of their knowledge in one easy to access resource. They recognize the evolution of current elk hunting and keep abreast with it by showing you the best methods and techniques to succeed in hunting today's public land elk! Elk vocalization is a deeper subject than you might think, it goes way beyond a few bugles, grunts, and mews. ElkNut's focus on elk vocabulary will give you the ability to understand what elk are saying and more importantly you'll know how to respond to improve your own hunting success. You’ll be drawn in by their insights and passion for communicating with elk. No matter your hunting style Learning The Language adds yet another weapon to any elk hunters arsenal!
