Another Aussie Water Buffalo
#215485 - 25/08/12 07:27 PM

G'day everyone,

Just spent 10 days in paradise guiding some of Hunt Australia clients for 7 days. I love that camp.....

Anyway, I got the chance to do a little hunting myself and managed to find this bloke. Pretty happy to blood my rebuilt Winchester Safari Classic in 416RM.

Cheers,
Mark.

Nice looking buffalo you've bagged, congratulations. And a good looking bit of timber on that Mod '70 by the look of it.

Cheers

Nice buff and nice place to hunt.

Where did you get the croc photo? How close were you? Hopefully not the one in the billabong next to camp.

Thanks for the fix!
