GeorgeS's Cape Buffalo
#4531 - 22/10/03 10:22 PM

I just wanted to bring this photo up. That cape buffalo has a really nicely proportioned set of horns, at least to my eye.

This photo is displayed in GeorgeS's signature on his posts but I always admire that buff each time I see it. Good hooks. Long horns and hard bosses. Very nice.

I'm agree with u. It's a really nice buff. Nowadays is not easy to get one like this.

Thanks, folks. I am very happy with him, too.

Here's a close-up from the side:

Very nice view.

Can I ask what size it was and do you know how old?

That is a wonderful Buffalo. I like the second picture much better. It show the horns beautifully and gets rid of the 'ugly' background of the first picture.

NitroX,

The bull had a 43 3/8" spread; I don't know how old he was, but he was in prime condition, so I don't think he was on the decline.

Thanks again. You wouldn't know I was absolutely miserable from cramps and amoebic dysentery, with some heat prostration thrown in, would you?

Goerge,

Even if he measured 48" he wouldn't have looked better a text book perfect bull !
