Don Heath "How to tell if a buffalo will charge" YouTube

Professional hunter Don Heath needs to be able to read the body language of dangerous game. In this film he talks us through incidents involving buffalo. This film first appeared in Fieldsports Britain, episode 73.

He did speak of incidents involving Buff but not how to tell if it is going to charge. Mind you if the Buff is eye balling you and advancing towards you that may be a fair indication of a charge comming your way.

Yeah, my internet connection was slow. Eventually got to watch the whole clip, and the title is a bit different from the clips content. Still interesting little clips.

This is a good clip, too. Most interesting- elephants & actual body language and charging - reasons and range - good stuff. I like this chap.

Meant to add, that I thought his old Sargent knew what he was doing and showed some guts.

He is a very nice guy. I have met him at Norma. Seemed very much knowing what he talks about. Prefer 9,3x62. Said that it was useful to everything, hardly never used anything else.

Sville, his preference of the light recoiling 9,3x62 is also due to an old shoulder injury.
