Jeff as much respect as I have for trackers, they on occasions do come up with some things that I find mildly put amusing

...eventualy guys were in a ditch a couple of meters infront and below of me, concentrating on a ground spoor (so their angle of view was pretty obscure one), while I was looking further around. I don't know how to describe it, but somehow I knew that Buff is somewhere very near. So when Buff pulled out I was on him instantly. At first moment I recall a pic of Buff quartering away pulling himself up on his front legs - that was when I shot it with right (see pic - entry infront of his left tigh), when I gave him the left barrel he was already disappearing straight away (see pic - entry on his right thigh).

All those shots, including first one exited between his front legs just under the point where neck joins the breast area. Due to fact that all shots were "soft" (no bones were hit) all bullets exited so none was found.

What I found amusing is that I don't recall a single thing on working the safety (it is an aouto one on my Merkel) nore reloading on the run...it all just worked out great...

On data - I cary a wrist watch that has a baro/altimeter and can record a simple log with height differences in time. Gordon (PH) had a GPS with him all the time and made his own records - BTW if anybody cares - Buffalo died exactly at:
