I thought the video was very well edited. It's not the music I listen to at home but a ratty cool, modern production that would certainly appeal to my decade-younger brother.

Definitely would not have shot at the buffalo in the herds nor any animal in a feed trough. However I have sat on waterholes in dry rivers for bushbuck, warthog, bush pig and baboon. The sable I took in Zim was an ambush at a small pan of water that would dry up soon after. We would started our buffalo tracking from spoor leading out of a waterhole at dawn, old school. If the right bull happened to be at the waterhole when I got there would I shoot? Think so. I certainly wouldn't shoo him away and then follow up.

Stay off the game farm hunts if you want a full on old school hunt, which for the most part means RSA and Namibia and Botswana plains game are out given the recent ban. I guess the limitation here for most will be dollars! Day rates, minimum days etc.

In 2009 I spent some time on a ranch and realised that it was a proper "ranch hunt" after day one. That was the nature of their business. So on day two the bakkie gt us to where we wanted to hunt then we got out on foot. The waterbuck and nyala were much less cooperative once we were on foot and an hour's hunt out of the bakkie became a few ads of tough hunting.

I think it's what the hunter maes of it. I hunt goats on a block in NSW and the cocky has a rule, if the goats see you the hunt is over, you lose! Shooting them is not very difficult at the bet f times and the mobs in this area aren't terribly bright, or perhaps too trusting. So set your own standards and make the hunt what you want it to be.
