JPK Thank you. Yes, I am sure this PH would be fine for some one in similar poor health who likes to do his hunting " drive by" style, however HHK were very aware that that was not us.

" Not enough info"...what more can I tell tell??

I noted my experience that elephant hunts are most often far more physical than buff hunts, with far more walking. You don't discuss the successful elephant hunt. But you complain that one of the PH's, Steve Boshoff, was terribly unfit for walking, a hallmark of elephant hunting.

You complain that Allan Moodie became too excited in the presence of game and describe this, too briefly, in the description of the buff hunt. But you tell that the elephant hunt went well. Over excitement in the presence of other game, notably buff, but not elephant seems unlikely.

You tell that you all chased the wounded buff for two days bumping him and his companions several times, but you complained of Steve Boshoff's fitness. This seems contradictory.

You complain that Allan Moodie was "just going through the motions" when you tried to follow the wounded bull, but then had to give up because you "pushed them too hard." Seems contradictory that "just going through the motions" results in pushing the buff too hard.

These inconsistencies and contradictions require more explanation, more information. There are plenty of other examples that more detail, more information, might explain as well.
