Well I've measured a lot of Bulls & most times when they get remeasured by a SCI master scorer , some how get much bigger , so I must be a short measurer , he went by rough measure just under 80 SCI points , but had great mass & plenty of length broomed off , the other was just under 70 SCI points .

Those are a type of Buffalo Fly , I have not noticed the ticks to bad on them myself .

The thing I was amazed more on was the fact both were Jet Black still & had fairly good body condition .
Mostly I look for Old Bulls going a slate or greying colour & back bones sticking out , to be even close to this size .

I wont comment on the range as they is a lot of debate on that .

A excellent game animal , very smart & alert , very dangerous , I have been charged a few times & been tossed once & was very lucky on that occasion .

We had a hunter gored by one a while back also , in the upper thigh .

But some times standing on the side of the road , chewing his cud !

I think a better game animal than a Cape Buff , which has a massive amount of hype , a lot from poor shooting , poor guiding or crap bullets

Same as our goring (poor guide attention) & my tossing (wrong cartridge & poor bullet placement)
That was a lot of years ago & I have more respect for them now & like powerful large cartridges
