This is my only Buff I have ever hunted and taken.
He was an old fella and an enjoyable hunting experience, one I hope to repeat again one day if I get the chance.

Hunt hard and enjoy the adventure.

What's a yank got to do to get an invite to one of these buffalo hunts.

Offer to pay for the beer?

Or the strippers?

Look, just bring plenty of money (a few wads of folded notes will do nicely) and we'll accomodate you

How much is this buff gonna cost me?

I'm thinking of buying a classic muscle car, and it's starting to look like it'll be one thing or the other.

Unless I find a really generous loan officer. Then I can have both.

I don't recall if I lost it during the divorce or the last move, but I no longer seem to have saltwater tackle. I'm also missing a baitcasting rod and a tacklebox.

I'm thinking I lost it during the move. She just wasn't that cut-throat.

Now I'm down to a light spinning rig.

I'll probably have to live up to my name and mooch off somebody.

I'd feel worse about it, if you diggers weren't going to be sticking me with the bill for the beer and strippers. So at the very least you can loan me a fishing rod.
