Really "me drool" with your pictures and your trophies. They are really beautiful. It would be great to release my 458 Lott beautiful Cape buffalo.

I hunted there in 2004 with a really poor PH at the time..had a great time chasing buff though...

Remote little area of the world...isn't that area also known as "Crooks Corner"??

In my next life I want to shoot some bulls like OzHunter.

This is my favorite thread.

Have to agree. That is a cracking old bull though I would prefer to hunt some bulls like that in this life rather than the next.

Zim 2013. Late season hunt. Shot him after a half hour stalk around a heard, most of this on our guts,sliding on our backsides or bent double and 150mts of hard running with 5 mins of shooting light left on last day of hunt. Not one day under 42C. At this time it was still over 38C. Noit a big bloke but old and hard won.
CZ 550 in 416Rigby. One 400grain Woodleigh Hydro. Took his heart out and ended just sort of the skin on his rump.

Huge cape buffalo. But probably in a breeding paddock.

Very impressive head, hard boss and all, but no roman nose or bald patches around the eyes.
Certainly lacks the highly desirable "dagga-boy" look, but would make a magnificent shoulder mount!

Breeding paddock assessment probably accurate!
