Hunt blacktails about the same as you would whitetails. Get out in the woods and try to find deer trails that are being well used and then try to find a spot that you can sit and wait for a buck to wander by.

Or you could try still hunting. Still hunting is where you move very slowly through the woods while being very alert to try to spot a deer (preferably before he spots you). While moving very slow and quiet you will stop often and use your binoculars to check the areas around you.

As for Elk.......bugling won't help you during rifle season. Elk are in the rut right now and by November they not respond to a bugle.
