LAST EDITED ON Jun-21-10 AT 10:41AM (MST)[p]I know what you mean by needing a quieter stalk AyA!
Couple of suggestions, first, hook all your electricity to a switch on the dash that you can just flip off an on at will. This will also reset that pesky "check engine light" every time too - only stooooopid people pay attention to that thing anyway and it never means anything other than the manufacturer is trying to get its rebate and incentive money back through repairs. So when you are rolling up on a buck, you can just flip off the switch and turn off all the electricity to your rig. Well, you should still run the headlights and spotlight independently though for obvious reasons.
Also, for a quieter stalk, you need to coat the outside of your truck with some berber carpet, the willows, junipers and greasewoods don't catch on it and it doesn't make that screeching sound that the greasewoods make on paint and metal.
Also, a buddy of mine got a device that changed his horn to an elk bugle, cow call, doe snort, and a buck grunt. Works like a charm and really cuts down on his bugle practice time. Works great too for in town and outrunning the cops. Whenever he jumps over a pond running from the cops or game warden he hits that elk bugle horn just like them Duke boys did with "Dixie" in the old General Lee. Cool as hell and really frustrating to those pesky LEO's. Only one little problem though he can't figure out exactly why but every 5th elk bugle comes out as "La Cucaracha" - he thinks it is just a bug and it will work itself out eventually. So far, it hasn't scared any elk away either, he has killed most of them before he has to bugle that 5th time and the one time it did go off, the elk got up on its hind legs and started prancing around like it was dancing around a hat, which made him think it was a queer bull so he passed on it, at least until it ran out in front of him a half mile or so later ane he clipped it with his front bumper. Must have been suicidal, hence the dancing.
Oh and don't worry about the Copenhagen spit on the upholstery, it really conditions the leather and I've been told the smell is quite the aphrodisiac for them rodeo chicks.
Just a couple things to consider.
