"Hunt went wrong"

(Posted for Ahmed577 who can fill in the details. No doubt something calamatous and painful at close quarters happened.)

Close encounter of the worst kind.
Hope all is well with him.

Glad he's ok, hopefully one of his Boss rifles was injured!

Tear in left short leg is from horn sweep lifting me up. Made every mistake in book. Lucky to be close to a community. Removing problem croc. Buff was for bait. Not withstanding my errors still believe biggest danger is sleeping lone bulls in long grass racing off after getting wind. This has been a more frequent close encounter happening. In 43 years of over 100 buff hunts only hit once. 3 animals shot at close charge.

Yikes - fortunate no more serious - an easy thing with such heavy beasts.
Best wishes, mate.

Glad to see you suffered no major injuriss. All it takes is one beast in the wrong place with the wrong circumstances.
